Resynchronization
Resynchronization may be necessary due to the security
method used by this system. The transmitter does
not
send the same signal twice to the receiver. The receiver
will not respond to a signal it has been sent previously.
This prevents anyone from recording
and playing back
the signal from the transmitter.
To resynchronize your transmitter, stand close to your
vehicle and simultaneously press and hold the
LOCK
and UNLOCK buttons on the transmitter for at least
five seconds. The door locks should cycle to confirm
synchronization.
If the locks do not cycle,
see your dealer for service.

A CAUTION:
If you try to carry something on top of your
vehicle that
is longer or wider than the luggage
carrier
-- like paneling, plywood, a mattress, and
so forth -- the wind can catch it as you drive
along. This can cause you
to lose control. What
you are carrying could be violently torn
off, and
this could cause you or other drivers to have
a
collision, and of course damage your vehicle. You
may be able to carry something like this inside.
But, never carry something longer or wider than
the luggage carrier on top
of your vehicle.
The luggage carrier has slats, side rails and crossrails
attached to the roof to secure cargo.
The moveable tie
downs, attached to the side rails, should
be used to
secure loads
to the luggage carrier.
Use
GM accessory racks that are compatible with your
luggage carrier for transporting sports equipment.
These are available through your
GM dealer.

Loading cargo that weighs more than 200 lbs.
(91 kg) on the luggage carrier may damage your
vehicle. When you carry large things, never let
them hang over the rear or the sides
of your
vehicle. Load your cargo
so that it rests on the
slats and does not scratch or damage the vehicle.
Put the cargo against the side rails and fasten it
securely to the luggage carrier. Put the main
weight as far forward as you can.
Don’t exceed the maximum vehicle capacity when
loading your vehicle. For more information
on vehicle
capacity and loading, see “Loading Your Vehicle”
in
the Index.
To prevent damage or loss of cargo as you’re driving,

back away from the heating element when it’s
ready. That can make it overload, damaging the
lighter and the heating element.
