2001 CHEVROLET CAMARO remote control

2-13 Resynchronization
Resynchronization may be necessary due to the security
method used by the remote keyless entry system. The
transmitter does not send the same signal twice to the
receiver. The receiver will not respond to a signal that has
been sent previously. This prevents anyone from recording
and playing back the signal from the transmitter.
To resynchronize the transmitter with the receiver, do
the following:
1. Stand close to the vehicle.
2. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons
on the transmitter at the same time for about
eight seconds.
The door locks should cycle and the interior lamps
should flash to confirm resynchronization.
If this does not happen, you may need to replace the
battery in your transmitter or match the transmitter
to your vehicle. See ªMatching Transmitter(s) to
Your Vehicleº in the Index.
Hatch
CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the hatch 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 hatch open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and
the hatch:

Make sure all other windows are shut.

Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on VENT. 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.

2-14 Hatch Release
Your door key opens the hatch from the outside. If your
vehicle has the content theft
-deterrent/alarm system and
the system is armed, opening the hatch this way will
trigger the alarm. First, disarm the system or use the
remote keyless entry transmitter to open the hatch. See
ªContent Theft
-Deterrent/Alarm Systemº in the Index.
Remote Hatch Release (If Equipped)
Press the button located
under the main lamp control
on the driver's side below
the instrument panel to
unlock the hatch from
inside your vehicle.If you have an automatic transmission, the shift lever
must be in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) to use the
remote hatch release. If you have a manual transmission
and the ignition is in RUN, you must set the parking
brake before you can use the remote hatch release.
This button only works when the ignition is in RUN,
ACC or when RAP is active. See ªRetained Accessory
Power (RAP)º in the Index.NOTICE:
If you put things in the hatchback area, be sure
they won't break the glass when you close it.
Never slam the hatch down. You could break the
glass or damage the defogger grid (if equipped).
On vehicles with the content theft-deterrent/alarm
system the remote hatch release button will not work
while the system is armed. See ªContent
Theft
-Deterrent/Alarm Systemº in the Index.

2-58
If your vehicle has the content theft-deterrent/alarm system
and your fog lamp switch is on, the fog lamps may flash
along with the parking lamps to indicate operation of the
content theft
-deterrent/alarm system. See ªContent
Theft
-Deterrent/Alarm Systemº in the Index.
Interior Lamps
Instrument Panel Brightness Control
The thumbwheel controls the brightness of your
instrument panel lights. Move the thumbwheel up or down
to brighten or dim the lights. If you move the thumbwheel
all the way up, your courtesy lamps will come on.
Courtesy Lamps
When either door is opened, several interior lamps go
on. These lamps are courtesy lamps. They make it easier
for you to enter and leave your vehicle.
Courtesy lamps include two map lamps on the inside
rearview mirror and other lamps throughout the interior
of your vehicle.
To prevent battery rundown, your interior lamps will be
disabled about 10 minutes after the ignition is turned to
OFF. The 10
-minute timer will be restarted if you do
any of the following:

Turn the ignition on.

Open either door.

Press any button on your remote keyless entry
transmitter (option).

Turn the interior lamp switch from off to on.

Open the hatch.

2-59 Delayed Illumination
With delayed illumination, the courtesy lamps will come
on and stay on for 25 seconds after you enter the vehicle
and close the door. They will also stay on for five
seconds after you exit the vehicle and close the doors.
Delayed illumination will be shortened if the ignition is
turned to RUN or if the power locks are activated. To
turn this feature on or off, see ªFeature Customizationº
in the Index.
Exit Lighting
With exit lighting, the interior lamps will come on when
you remove the key from the ignition to help you see
while exiting the vehicle. To turn this feature on or off,
see ªFeature Customizationº in the Index.
Front Map Lamps
Your inside rearview mirror includes two map lamps.
Each lamp has its own switch. Use the switch closest to
the lamp to turn it on. The lamps will also come on
when a door is opened.
Mirrors
Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror
An inside rearview mirror is attached to your
windshield. The mirror pivots so that you can adjust it.
You can adjust the mirror for day or night driving. Pull
the tab for night driving to reduce glare. Push the tab for
daytime driving.
Outside Manual Adjustable Mirror
Adjust the passenger's outside mirror by hand so that
you can see a little of the side of your vehicle when you
are sitting in a comfortable driving position.
Manual Remote Control Mirror
Adjust the driver's outside mirror with the lever located
on the door. Adjust the mirror so that you can see a little
of the side of your vehicle when you are sitting in a
comfortable driving position.

2-60 Power Remote Control Mirrors (If Equipped)
The power mirror control is located on the driver's door.
To adjust either mirror, turn the selector switch to L (left)
or R (right). Then push the control in the direction you
want the mirror to go.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from the
driver's seat.
CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
