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.

6. Your compass should be calibrated. You will know
Compass Accuracy
Your compass may show different headings around
bridges, power lines, large metal objects and steep hills.
This is noma1 and is true of compasses in general.
If you put large metal objects like golf clubs in the trunk
they could affect accuracy. If the accuracy is close, the
compass will adapt to
these objects over time.
If you use an antenna with a magnetic base, it is best
to mount it away from the center of the trunk near the
rear window.
The rear defog system can affect accuracy, and the
compass corrects for the rear defog. However,
if the rear
defog is turned on while making
sharp turns, the
accuracy may be
off. When you turn the rear defog off
again, the accuracy returns to normal.
Do not turn on the rear defog if you are trying to
calibrate. The system will not allow the calibration.
You
will hear the chime, and CALIBRATE will flash for a
few seconds.
Be aware that metal objects are sometimes buried in the
ground. They
can affect accuracy and you may not know
they are there.
As an example, many concrete roads
have
metal reinforcements inside.

compartment. Pull the tab rearward to release the
