8 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

If the Sentry Key Immobilizer System indicator light
comes on during normal vehicle operation (it has been
running for longer than 10 seconds) a fault has been
detected in the electronics and the vehicle should be
serviced as soon as possible.
NOTE:
•
The Sentry Immobilizer System is not compatible with
remote starting systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security
protection.
•Mobil SpeedPass, additonal sentry keys, or any other
transponder equipped components on the same key-
chain willnot
cause a key-related (transponder)
fault unless the additional part isphysically held
against the ignition keybeing used when starting
the vehicle. Cell phones, pagers, or other RF Elec-
tronics will also not cause interference with this
system.
The Theft Alarm Light, located on top of the instrument
panel, will illuminate for about 3 seconds when the
ignition switch is first turned to the On position. If the
vehicle electronics do not receive a valid signal from theignition key, the theft alarm light will flash continuously
to signal that the vehicle has been immobilized. If the
Theft Alarm Light remains On during vehicle operation,
it indicates a fault in the system electronics.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
Important Note about Service
A four digit PIN is needed to service the Sentry Key
Immobilizer System. This number can be obtained by the
dealership. However, this number can also be found on
your customer invoice that you were given upon receipt
of your vehicle. YOU MUST BRING ALL SENTRY KEYS
that are programmed to your vehicle directly to your
dealership for service.
Replacement Keys
NOTE:
Only keys that have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once
a Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it can
not be programmed to any other vehicle.

fully programmed. You will have 30 seconds to finish
programming all new transmitters. A chime will sound

Transmitter Linked to Memory Programming
Your remote transmitters can be programmed to return
the driver’s seat, mirrors, and radio presets to the saved
position when the Unlock button is pressed and released.
NOTE:When newly purchased (or replacement) trans-
mitters are programmed into the vehicle, the first trans-
mitter programmed will be associated with memory

ters will not be associated with a memory setting.
To program your transmitters, perform the following:
1. Insert key into the igniton and turn the key to the
On/Run position.
2. Adjust the seat and side view mirrors to the desired
position. Program the radio preset buttons to the desired
stations.3. Press and release the Set (S) button on the memory
seat switch, then press and release memory button 1 or 2.

setting.
5. Do not press any buttons for 10 seconds.
NOTE:Your transmitters may be unlinked from your
memory settings by following the procedure above ex-
cept pressing the Unlock button on the transmitter in step
4 above. On vehicles equipped with an EVIC (Electronic
Vehicle Information Center), these functions can be se-
lected at the EVIC using the Customer Programmable
Features. Refer to EVIC-Customer Programmable Fea-
tures for details. When newly purchased (or replacement)
transmitters are programmed into the vehicle, the first
transmitter trained will be associated with memory set-
ting 1, and the second transmitter trained will be associ-
