Sliding Door Security Lock
Your vehicle is equipped with a sliding door security
lock that helps prevent young children or other
passengers from opening the sliding door(s) by using the
inside door handle.
The security lock lever is
located on the inside of the
sliding door(s), on the front
edge of the door.
To access the lever, open the sliding door. Use the
security lock label on the edge of the door as a guide.
This lock is on both doors.To use the security lock, move the security lock lever all
the way up and close the door from the outside.
If your vehicle has the optional power sliding door(s),
you can override the security lock by pressing either
power door lock switch when the power sliding door
override switch(es) is turned off. When the power
sliding door override switch(es) is turned on, the power
sliding door(s) cannot be opened from the inside when
the sliding door security lock is in use.
If you want to open the sliding door when the security
lock is on, unlock the sliding door and open the door
from the outside.
You should let adults and older children know how the
security lock works, and how to cancel the lock. If you
don't, adults or older children who ride in the rear won't
be able to open the sliding door from the inside when
the security lock feature is in use.

2-34 Resetting the Power Sliding Door
The power sliding door may operate incorrectly or not at
all because of the following conditions:

A low voltage or dead battery,

disconnecting the battery, or

if the instrument panel PWR/HEATED SEAT PSD
fuse or the underhood fuse 5, 27 or 29 are removed
or blown.

entry transmitter or a key), breaks a window, tries to
damage the vehicle or turns the ignition to ON. The
horn will sound and the parking lamps will flash for up
to two minutes.
When the alarm is armed, the liftgate may be opened
with the remote keyless entry transmitter or with a key.
Arming with the Power Lock Switch
Your alarm system will arm when you use either power
door lock switch to lock the doors while any door or the
liftgate is open and the key is removed from the ignition.
If you would like to turn on power door lock switch

ready to arm with the power door lock switches. Then
the security light will stop flashing and stay on when
you press the rear of the power door lock switch, to let
you know the system is arming. After all doors and the
liftgate are closed and locked, the security light will
begin flashing at a very slow rate to let you know the
system is armed.

Entry Transmitter
Your alarm system will arm when you use your remote
keyless entry transmitter to lock the doors, if the key is
not in the ignition. The security light will turn on to let
you know the system is arming. After all doors and the
liftgate are closed and locked, the security light will
begin flashing at a very slow rate to let you know the
system is armed.

lock the doors. The security light will turn on to let you
know the system is arming. After all doors and the
liftgate are closed and locked, the security light will
begin flashing at a very slow rate to let you know the
system is armed. If you would like your key not to arm
the system, see ªMultifunction Alarm Locks and
Lighting Choicesº in the Index.

2-39
Arming Confirmation

lamps will flash briefly to let you know when your
alarm system has disarmed. If you would not like the
parking lamps to flash, see ªMultifunction Alarm Locks
and Lighting Choicesº in the Index.

ªMultifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choicesº in
the Index.
Nuisance Alarms
If you experience nuisance alarms (alarms which are not
caused by the opening of a door or the liftgate and are
not desirable), you may need to reduce the damage
detection sensitivity. Try programming the content
theft
-deterrent to Mode 1.
If you continue to experience nuisance alarms, you
may want to try turning off damage detection by
programming your content theft
-deterrent to Mode 2.
If you are still having trouble with nuisance alarms, you
can turn off the content theft
-deterrent system by
programming your content theft
-deterrent to Mode 3.
See ªMultifunction Alarm Locks and Lighting Choicesº
in the Index for more information. See your dealer or
qualified technician for service.

PASS-Key
III
Your vehicle is equipped
with the PASS
-Key III
(Personalized Automotive
Security System)
theft
-deterrent system.
PASS
-Key III is a passive
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.
Your PASS
-Key III system 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.
PASS
-Key III uses a radio frequency transponder in the
key that matches a decoder in your vehicle.
When the PASS
-Key III system senses that someone is
using the wrong key, it shuts down the vehicle's starter
and fuel systems. The starter will not work and fuel will
stop being delivered to the engine. Anyone using a
trial
-and-error method to start the vehicle will be
discouraged because of the high number of electrical
key codes.
If the engine does not start and the security message
comes on, the key may have a damaged transponder.
Turn the ignition off and try again.

2-41
If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to be
undamaged, try another ignition key. At this time, you
may also want to check the instrument panel PASS KEY
fuse. If the engine still does not start with the other key,
your vehicle needs service. If your vehicle does start, the
first key may be faulty. See your dealer or a locksmith
who can service the PASS
-Key III to have a new key
made. See ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the Index.
It is possible for the PASS
-Key III decoder to learn
the transponder value of a new or replacement key.
Up to 10 additional keys may be programmed for the
vehicle. This procedure is for learning additional keys
only. If all the currently programmed keys are lost or
do not operate, you must see your dealer or a locksmith
who can service PASS
-Key III to have keys made
and programmed to the system.
See your dealer or a locksmith who can service
PASS
-Key III to get a new key blank that is a cut
exactly as the ignition key that operates the system.
Canadian Owners: If you lose or damage your keys,
only a GM dealer can service PASS
-Key III to have new
keys made. To program additional keys you will need
two current driver's keys (black in color). You must add
a step to the following procedure. After Step 3 repeat
Steps 1 through 3 with the second current driver's key.
Then continue with Step 4.To program the new key:
1. Verify the new key has PK3 stamped on it.
2. Insert the ignition key in the ignition and start
the engine. If the engine will not start see your dealer
for service.
3. After the engine has started, turn the key to OFF and
remove the key.
4. Insert the key to be programmed and turn it to RUN
within 10 seconds of removing the previous key.
5. The security message will turn off once the key has
been programmed. It may not be apparent that the
security message went on due to how quickly the key
is programmed.
6. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 if additional keys are
to be programmed.
If you are ever driving and the security message comes
on and stays on, you will be able to restart your engine
if you turn it off. Your PASS
-Key III system, however,
is not working properly and must be serviced by
your dealer. Your vehicle is not protected by the
PASS
-Key III system at this time.
If you lose or damage a PASS
-Key III key, see your
dealer or a locksmith who can service PASS
-Key III to
have a new key made.
