2-8 Operation
When you press this button to unlock the driver's
door, the parking lamps on your vehicle will flash twice.
(You can program your vehicle so the parking lamps
will not flash. For more information, see ªRemote
Confirmationº in the Index.) Pressing this button again
within one to five seconds will unlock the other doors.
Pressing this button will also disarm the theft
-deterrent
system and turn on the interior lamps at night.
When you press this button to lock the doors, the
parking lamps will flash once and the horn will sound
once. (You can program your vehicle so the parking
lamps will not flash and/or the horn will not sound. For
more information, see ªRemote Confirmationº in the
Index.) This also arms the theft
-deterrent system when
the ignition is turned off.
Press this button to open the trunk. (The valet lock
switch must be in the OFF position.)
Press this button to open the fuel door. (The valet
lock switch must be in the OFF position.)
The numbers on the back of the RKE transmitter
correspond to Driver 1 and Driver 2. See ªMemory Seat
and Personalizationº in the Index. Remote confirmation
is not operational if any door is open.
The RKE transmitter can also be used to recall the
memory seats for up to two drivers. For more
information, see ªMemory Seat and Mirrorsº in
the Index.
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. Once your dealer has
coded the new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not
unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle can have only up to
four transmitters matched to it.
All transmitters must be present when replacement or
additional transmitters are being programmed.

2. Once the transmitter is separated, use a pencil (or a
similar object) to remove the old battery. Do not use
a metal object.
3. Insert the new battery as the instructions under the
cover indicate.
4. Snap the transmitter back together tightly to be sure
no moisture can enter.
5. Resynchronize the transmitter. See the instructions
that follow.
Resynchronization
Pressing the transmitter buttons numerous times
(approximately 250 times) out of the vehicle's operating
range may cause the transmitter not to work. Replacing
the battery and pressing the transmitter buttons out of
range will also cause the transmitter not to work. If only
the fuel door button works, the transmitter needs to be
resynchronized to the receiver. Do this by pressing and
holding both the lock and unlock buttons on the
transmitter for about eight seconds. You must be within
range of the vehicle.
Once the transmitter has been resynchronized, the horn
will sound and the exterior lamps will flash once. The
system should now operate properly. See your dealer for
service if your transmitter still doesn't work properly.

To arm the system, do the following:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door using the power door lock switch with
the door open or the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
system. The SECURITY light should come on and
stay on.
3. Close all the doors. The SECURITY light should go
off within approximately 30 seconds.
When the theft system activates, the horn will sound and
the lamps will flash for about 30 seconds when the door
or trunk is opened without the key or RKE system.
Remember, the theft
-deterrent system won't arm if you
lock the doors with a key or use the manual door lock. It
activates only if you use a power door lock with the
door open or the RKE system.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident:

The vehicle should be locked with the door key or
the manual door lock after the doors are closed if
you don't want to arm the theft
-deterrent system.

Always unlock a door with a key or use the RKE
system. (Pressing the unlock button on the RKE
transmitter disables the theft
-deterrent system.)
Unlocking a door any other way will activate the
alarm when a door or the trunk is opened.If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock the driver's
door with your key. You can also turn off the alarm by
using the unlock button on the RKE system, or by
starting the car with a valid key.
Changes or modifications made to this system by other
than an authorized service facility could void
authorization to use the theft system.
Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window, then
get out of the vehicle, keeping the door open.
2. From outside of the vehicle, with the door open, lock
the vehicle using the power door lock or the RKE
system and close the door. Wait 30 seconds until the
SECURITY lamp goes off.
3. Reach in and unlock the door using the manual lock
and open the door. The horn will sound and the
hazard lights will flash.
You can turn off the alarm by unlocking the driver's
door with your key, using the unlock button on the RKE
transmitter or by starting the car with a valid key.

If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to see
if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown. To
replace the fuse, see ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the
Index. If the fuse does not need to be replaced, you may
need to have your vehicle serviced.
To reduce the possibility of theft, always arm the
theft
-deterrent system when leaving your vehicle.
Valet Lock
This switch is located inside the glove box on the
left
-hand side. Pressing this switch to ON will disable
the use of the trunk, fuel door and garage door opener.
Pressing this switch to
OFF will make these
features reusable.
Locking the glove box with your key will also help to
secure your vehicle. Note that the RKE transmitter can't
open the trunk or fuel door if the valet lock switch is in
the ON position.
PASS-Key
III
Your vehicle is equipped
with the PASS

theft
-deterrent system. This
means you don't have to do
anything different to arm or
disarm the system. It works
when you insert or remove
the key from the ignition.

frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry Canada.

Horn
The horn can be sounded by pressing on the center of
the steering wheel pad.
Tilt Wheel
Tilt steering allows you to adjust the steering wheel
before you drive. Raising the steering wheel to the
highest level gives your legs more room when you enter
and exit the vehicle.
Hold the steering wheel and pull the lever toward you to
bring the steering wheel close to you. Adjust the steering
wheel to a comfortable position and then release the
lever to lock it into place.
Power Tilt Wheel (and Telescopic
Wheel)(Option)
To operate the power tilt
feature, push the control up
and the steering wheel will
tilt up. Push the control
down and the steering wheel
will go down.
Push the control forward and the steering wheel moves
toward the front of the vehicle. Push the control
rearward and the steering wheel moves toward the rear
of the vehicle. To set the memory position, see
ªMemory and Personalization Featuresº in the Index.
If the power tilt control is pressed up or down and held
in that position, there will be a slight movement and a
slight pause followed by a continuous movement in the
direction the control is being pressed. This allows very
fine control of the steering wheel position. If the control
is bumped, the steering wheel moves approximately one
degree in the direction commanded.
