This feature provides feedback to the holder of the
keyless entry transmitter that a command has been
received by the keyless entry receiver. The parking
lamps will flash
on every lock and unlock command and
the horn will sound only if the
LOCK button is pressed
twice within five seconds. This allows for silent
operation
of locking and unlocking, unless a confirming
horn chirp is desired. Other options may be selected for
this feature (see “Feature Customization” in the Index).
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each 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.
Have each transmitter you intend to match ready for the
next steps.
To match transmitters to your vehicle:
1. Turn the ignition to RUN, then to OFF. This
will disarm the Vehicle and Content Theft-DeterrenVAlann System (if your vehicle
has
this option).
2. Remove the RADIO fuse. This fuse is located in the
main fuse block which is located on the left side
of
your main instrument panel. When the fuse block is
open the radio fuse is located on the lower right hand
corner of your instrument panel. See “Fuses and
Circuit Breakers’’ in the Index.
3. Turn the ignition from OFF to RUN three times
quickly (within five seconds). The vehicle will
respond by locking the doors, unlocking the driver’s
doors and releasing the hatch. Your transmitter is
now ready to match the vehicle.
4. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on
the first transmitter for
15 seconds. The vehicle will
respond as in Step
3.
5. Repeat Step 4 for the remaining transmitters.
