Matching Transmitter(s) to Your

Each keyless access transmitter is coded to prevent
another transmitter from working with 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. Once your dealer has coded the new transmitter,
the lost transmitter will not work with your vehicle.
Each vehicle can have a maximum of four transmitters
matched to it.To match a new transmitter to your vehicle when you

1. The vehicle must be off.
2. Have the recognized and new, unrecognized
transmitters on your person.
3. Go to the rear of the vehicle and insert the vehicle

Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your keyless access
transmitter should last about three years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter will not
work at the normal range in any location. If you have
to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it is probably time to change the battery.
A weak battery may also cause the DIC to display NO
FOBS DETECTED when you try to start the vehicle. If
this happens, place the transmitter in the glove box
transmitter pocket with the buttons facing to the right.
Then, with the vehicle in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N),
press the brake pedal and the START button. Although
this will start the vehicle, it is recommended that you
replace the transmitter battery as soon as possible. The
DIC may display FOB BATTERY LOW.
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. Insert a coin or similar object into the slot on the
back of the transmitter and gently pry apart the
front and back.
2. Gently pull the battery out of the transmitter.
3. Put the new battery in the transmitter, positive (+)
side up. Use a battery, type CR2032, or equivalent.
4. Reassemble the transmitter. Make sure to put
it together so water will not get in.
5. Test the transmitter.

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.

Lockout Protection
Your vehicle can be programmed to sound the horn
three times and unlock the driver's door when both
doors are closed and there is a keyless access
transmitter inside the interior of the vehicle. When the
driver's door is reopened, the key in reminder chime will
sound continuously. The vehicle will remain locked
only when at least one transmitter has been removed
from the vehicle and both doors are closed. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-66.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keyless access
transmitter with you, open your door and set the
locks from inside or with the keyless access transmitter.
Then get out and close the door.
The vehicle can also be programmed to have the doors
lock automatically when you exit the vehicle. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-66.
