UNLOCK again within five seconds, all doors will
unlock. Press
LOCK to lock all the doors.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should
last about two years.
Press the REAR button twice within
3 1/2 seconds to
unlock and unlatch
the rear glass. If your vehicle has
an automatic transmission, the transmission must be
in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
If your vehicle has
a manual transmission, you must engage the
parking brake.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring any
remaining transmitters
with you when you go to your
dealer. When
the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only two transmitters
matched
to it.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won’t
work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to
get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it’s probably time to change the battery.
NOTICE:
When replacing the battery, use care not to touch
any of the circuitry. Static from your body
transferred to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.

Resynchronization
Resynchronization may be necessary due to the security
method used by this system. The transmitter does
not

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.

Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number
of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on
it can make
it impossible
to steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an
easy target for
joy riders or professional thieves -- so
don‘t do it.
When you park your vehicle and open the driver’s door,
you’II hear a tone reminding
you to remove your key
from the ignition and take it with you. Always do this.
Your steering wheel will be locked. and
so will your
ignition. If you have an automatic transmission, taking
your key
out also locks your transmission. And
remember to lock the doors. Park
in a
lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember
to keep your valuables out of sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots
If you park in a lot where someone will be watching
your vehicle. it’s best
to lock it up and take your keys.
But what
if you have to leave your ignition key? What if
you have to leave something valuable in your vehicle?
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your
glove box.
Lock all the doors except the driver’s.
