Changes or modifications to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry 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 or
resynchronization is necessary. See the instructions
that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.Operation
The numbers on the back of your transmitter correspond
to DRIVER #1 and DRIVER #2 on the DIC. For more

The driver's door will
unlock and the exterior
lights will flash twice
when the unlock symbol
is pressed.
If the unlock symbol is pressed again within five
seconds, all doors will unlock, the exterior lamps will
flash twice and the horn may sound. See ªSecurity

All doors will lock, the exterior lamps will flash once
and the horn may sound when the lock symbol

The following list of features available on your vehicle
can be programmed to the driver's preference for
each transmitter.

when shifting in and out of PARK (P) or when the
key is turned to LOCK.

Security Feedback: This feature provides feedback
to the driver when the vehicle receives a command
from the remote lock control transmitter.

the actual locking of the vehicle. When all doors
have been closed, the doors will lock automatically
after five seconds.

Perimeter Lighting: When the unlock symbol on
the remote lock control transmitter is pressed, the
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL), parking lamps
and back
-up lamps will turn on if it is dark
enough outside.

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.
For battery replacement, use a Duracell
battery, type
DL
-2032, or a similar type.To replace the battery:
1. Insert a coin into the notch near the key ring. Turn
the coin counterclockwise to separate the two halves
of the transmitter.
2. Once the transmitter is separated, use a pencil eraser
to remove the old battery. Do not use a metal object.
3. Replace the battery as the instructions under the
cover indicate.
4. Snap the transmitter back together tightly to be sure
no moisture can enter.
5. Test the operation of the transmitter with your
vehicle. If the transmitter does not work,
resynchronize the transmitter.

2-15 Trunk Lock Release
To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the master
key and turn it.
Remote Trunk Release
Press the trunk release
button located on the lower
portion of the driver's door
to release the trunk lid. The
trunk release lockout switch
must be OFF for this button
to work.
The system also works with the remote lock control.
The trunk will unlock when the trunk symbol is pressed
while the vehicle is in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) and
the trunk release lockout switch is in OFF.
Trunk Release Lockout
The trunk release lockout
switch in the glove box
allows you to secure items
in the trunk and disable the
fuel door release and the
HomeLink

Transmitter.

glove box and take the master key and remote lock
control transmitter with you. Now the remote trunk
release button will not open the trunk, the fuel door
release button will not open the fuel door and the
HomeLink Transmitter will not operate.

2-16
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft
-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make
it impossible to steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it's an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so
don't do it.
With the ignition off and the driver's door open, you'll
hear a chime reminding you to remove your key from
the ignition and take it with you. Always do this. Your
steering wheel will be locked, and so will your ignition
and transaxle. And remember to lock the doors.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out of sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots
Even if you park in a lot where someone will be
watching your vehicle, it's still best to lock it up and
take your keys. But what if you have to leave your
ignition key?

If possible, park in a busy, well
-lit area.

Put your valuables in a storage area, like your
trunk or glove box. Be sure to close and lock the
storage area.

Close all windows.

Move the trunk release lockout switch to ON.

Lock the glove box.

Lock all doors except the driver's.

Give the valet key to the valet. Then take the
master key with you.

2-17
Universal Theft-Deterrent
Your vehicle has a theft-deterrent alarm system. With
this system, if your ignition is off, the SECURITY light
will flash as you open the door.
This light reminds you to
activate the theft
-deterrent
system. To activate it do
the following:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch or
remote lock control system. The SECURITY light
should come on and stay on.
3. Close all doors. The SECURITY light should go
off after about 30 seconds. The security system is
not armed until the SECURITY light is off. If the
SECURITY light stays on or flashes when the
ignition is turned on, there is a problem with the
system and the vehicle should be serviced.
If the SECURITY light comes on for one minute and
then shuts off while the ignition is on, the security
system has detected a problem. See your dealer
for service.If a door or the trunk is opened without the key or
remote lock control transmitter, the alarm will go off.
Your vehicle's lamps will flash and the horn will sound
for 30 seconds, then will go off to save battery power.
Remember, the theft
-deterrent system won't activate
if you lock the doors with a key or manual door lock.
It only activates if you use the power door lock switch
or remote lock control transmitter. You should also
remember that you can start your vehicle with the
correct ignition key if the alarm has been set off.
This also shuts off the alarm.
Here's how to avoid setting off the alarm by accident:

If you don't want to activate the theft
-deterrent
system, lock the door either using a key or the
manual door lock switch.

Always unlock a door with a key, or use the remote
lock control system. Unlocking a door any other
way will set off the alarm.
If you set off the alarm by accident, unlock any door
with your key.
You can also turn off the alarm by pressing the
unlock symbol on the remote lock control transmitter.
The alarm won't stop if you try to unlock a door any
other way.

2-18 Testing the Alarm
The alarm can be tested by following these steps:
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the driver's
window and open the driver's door.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with the
power door lock switch while the door is open, or
with the remote lock control transmitter.
3. Get out of the car, close the door and wait for the
SECURITY light to go out.
4. Then reach in through the window, unlock the
door with the manual door lock and open the door.
This should set off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, but the
vehicle's lamps flash, check to see if the horn works.
The horn fuse may be blown. See ªFuses and Circuit
Breakersº in the Index.
If the alarm does not sound, or the vehicle's lamps
do not flash, the vehicle should be serviced by an
authorized service center.
