-
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers
-- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handle won’t open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be
so obvious: You increase the
chance
of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren’t locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better
off whenever you drive your vehicle.
’
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside, use your door key or remote keyless
entry transmitter if your vehicle has
this option. From the inside, push the lever to lock the
door
manually.
To unlock, pull the lever.
Power Door Locks
Press the power door lock switch to lock or unlock
both doors.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your
door and set the locks from inside. Then get out and
close the door.
Remote Keyless Entry (If Equipped)
If your Chevrolet has this option, you can lock and
unlock your doors or unlock your trunk from about
3 feet (1 m) up to 30 feet (9 m) away using the remote
keyless entry transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
Your remote keyless entry transmitter operates on a
radio frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry and
Science Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry and
Science Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
Changes or modifications to this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
This system has a range of about
3 feet (1 m) up to
30 feet (9 m). At times you may notice a decrease in
range. This is normal for any remote keyless entry
system. If the transmitter does not work or if you have
to stand closer to your vehicle for the transmitter to
work, try this:
0
0
0
0
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects
may be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to
the left or right, hold the transmitter higher, and
try again.
If you’re still having trouble, see your Chevrolet
dealer or a qualified technician for service.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Operation
Press UNLOCK once to
unlock the driver’s door.
Press UNLOCK again
within five seconds to
unlock all remaining doors;
pressing UNLOCK will also
cause the vehicle’s interior
lamps to come on for a
period of time--(see
“Sustained Interior
Illumination” in the Index
for more details).
To lock both doors, press LOCK. To unlock the trunk,
press the trunk symbol on the transmitter. The trunk will
only unlock if your transaxle is
in PARK (P); pressing
LOCK or the trunk symbol will also cause the vehicle’s
interior lamps to come on
for a period of time--(see
“Sustained Interior Illumination” in the Index for
more details).
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 four transmitters
matched to it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about two years.
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.
For battery replacement, use type CR2032 or
an equivalent.
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. To replace the battery:
1. Insert a flat object like a dime into the slot on the
back of the transmitter. Gently pry apart the front
and back.
2. Remove the battery and replace it with the new one,
making sure the positive
(+) side of the battery is
facing down.
3. Snap the top and bottom together; make sure the
halves are together tightly
so water won’t get in.
4. Test the operation of your transmitter with your
vehicle.
If the transmitter does not work, try
synchronizing the transmitter with your receiver,
(located in your vehicle).

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Synchronization
Synchronization may be necessary due to the
security method used by this remote keyless entry
system. The transmitter does not send the same signal
twice to the receiver. The receiver will not respond to
a signal it has previously been sent; this prevents
someone from recording and playing back the signal
from the transmitter.
To resynchronize the transmitter with the receiver, do
the following: While standing close to your vehicle,
simultaneously press and hold the
LOCK and UNLOCK
buttons on the transmitter for about five seconds. The
door locks should cycle (lock and unlock) to confirm
synchronization. If the locks
do not cycle, see your
dealer for service.
Trunk
-
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can’t see or smell
CO. It can cause unconsciousness and even death.
If you must drive with the trunk lid open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and the
trunk lid:
Make sure all windows are shut.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Trunk Lock
To unlock the trunk from
the outside, insert the door
key and turn it. You can
also use the remote keyless
entry function if your
vehicle has this option.
Just press the trunk symbol
on the transmitter, making
sure your shift lever is in
PARK
(P).
Remote Trunk Release (Option)
Press the button under the
instrument panel on the
driver’s side. Your transaxle
shift lever must be in
PARK (P).
Remember, your trunk can be opened at any time using
this lock release,
so be sure to lock your doors.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some
cities. Although your Chevrolet 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 ydu @ark your Chevrolet and open the driver’s
door, you’ll hear a chime 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 and transaxle. And remember
to lock
the doors.
