A second mirror, seating and steering wheel position
can be programmed by repeating the above steps and
pressing button ª2º (for driver 2). Each time a memory
button is pressed, a single beep will sound. Each time
button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while the vehicle is
in PARK (P), the memory positions will be recalled.
Each time button 1 or 2 is pressed and held while the
vehicle is out of PARK (P), the memory positions will
be recalled.
To stop recall movement of the memory seat and
steering wheel at any time, press one of the power seat,
steering wheel or mirror controls.

recalling the driving position (by pressing 1 or 2),
then positioning the steering wheel and seat in the
desired exit positions and then pressing and releasing
the MEMORY SET button and, within five seconds,
pressing the EXIT button. With the vehicle in PARK (P),
the exit position for either previously set driver can be
recalled by pressing the EXIT button. The mirrors,
power lumbar and power head restraint and shoulder belt
height positions will not be stored or recalled for the
exit positions.If you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to enter

When the key is placed in the ignition in OFF or when
the unlock button is pressed on the remote keyless entry
transmitter, the seats and mirrors will automatically
adjust to the programmed position.

select automatic seat and mirror movement using the
remote keyless entry transmitter, placing your key in
the ignition, or by exiting the vehicle. For programming
information, see ªVehicle Programming and
Personalization Featuresº in the Index.

Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.

Passengers -- especially children -- can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. When a door is locked, the
handle won't open it. You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in
a crash if the doors aren't locked. So, wear
safety belts properly and lock the doors
whenever you drive.

Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A child
can be overcome by extreme heat and can
suffer permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Always lock your vehicle
whenever you leave it.

Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down or stop
your vehicle. Locking your doors can help
prevent this from happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside, use either the key or the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
Because your vehicle has the theft
-deterrent system, you
must unlock the doors with the key or RKE transmitter
to avoid setting off the alarm.
The manual lock is located
on the top of the door panel
near the window. Push the
manual lock lever down to
lock the door from the
inside. To unlock the door,
raise the lock lever.
Central Door Unlocking System
When unlocking the driver's door, you can unlock the
other doors by holding the key in the turned position for
a few seconds or by quickly turning the key twice in the
lock cylinder.

2-10
Rear Door Security Lock
Your vehicle is equipped
with rear door security
locks that help prevent
passengers from opening
the rear doors of your
vehicle from the inside.
The locks are located on
the inside edge of each
rear door.
To Use One of These Locks
1. Move the lever on the door all the way up to the
ENGAGED position.
2. Close the door.
3. Do the same thing to the other rear door lock.
The rear doors of your vehicle cannot be opened from
the inside when this feature is in use.To Open a Rear Door with the Security Lock
1. You may unlock the door by using the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter, the front door
power lock switch or by lifting the rear door
manual lock.
2. Then open the door from the outside.
To Cancel the Rear Door Lock
1. You may unlock the rear door by using the RKE
transmitter, the front door power lock switch or by
lifting the rear door manual lock. Open the door
from the outside.
2. Move the lever all the way down.
3. Do the same for the other rear door.
The rear door locks will now work normally.

2-11
Anti-Lockout Feature
Leaving your key in any ignition position with any door
open will disable the use of the power door locks and
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) lock function. If you
close the doors, you can lock them using the power door
locks or the RKE system. It is always recommended that
you remove the ignition key when locking your vehicle.
The anti
-lockout feature can be overridden by holding
the power door lock switch for three seconds or longer.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, open the door, set the
locks from the inside, get out and close the door.
Remote Keyless Entry System
With this feature, 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 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 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.
The range of this system is from 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 RKE system. If the
transmitter does not work or if you have to stand closer
to your vehicle for the transmitter to work, try this:

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.

Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.

2-13
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 up to four
transmitters matched to it.
Since all vehicles come with only two transmitters, you
must check with your dealer for information on how to
obtain additional transmitters.
All transmitters must be present when replacement or
additional transmitters are being programmed.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about four 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.
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.
1. Use a coin (or a similar object) to pry open
the transmitter.

2-14
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. Press any button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter to resynchronize the transmitter.
6. Check the operation of the transmitter.
Trunk
CAUTION:
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 other windows are shut.

Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on AUTO and the temperature between
65F (18C) and 85F (29C). That will
force outside air into your vehicle. See
ªComfort Controlsº in the Index.

If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.
See ªEngine Exhaustº in the Index.
