REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and with RS-210 of
Industry Canada. 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.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to
operate the equipment.
Your remote entry system contains two remote transmitters which
provide remote control of several features. Each remote transmitter will
allow you to:
²unlock the vehicle doors without a key.
²lock all the vehicle doors without a key.
²open the trunk without a key.
²activate the personal alarm.
²open all windows and moonroof (if equipped).
²arm and disarm the perimeter anti-theft system.
²operate the illuminated entry feature.
²operate the memory seat/mirror/steering column feature (if equipped).
The remote transmitter features only operate with the ignition in the
OFF or ACC positions. For vehicles equipped with an automatic
transmission, the remote transmitter features also operate if the ignition
is in the RUN position and the gear shift is in P (Park). The personal
alarm feature, however, will not operate when the ignition is in the RUN
position.
When the vehicle is armed the power door locks and remote trunk
release control are disabled. These will not work until the vehicle is
disarmed.
If there is any potential remote keyless entry problem with your vehicle,
ensureALL key fobs(remote entry transmitters) are brought to the
dealership, to aid in troubleshooting.
