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

2. Within five seconds press the 1•2 on the keypad.

Tips:
•Do not set a code that uses five of the same number.
•Do not use five numbers in sequential order.
•The factory set code will work even if you have set your own personal
code.
•If you set a second personal code it will erase your first personal code.
Erasing personal code
1. Enter the factory set 5–digit code.
2. Press and hold the 1•2 for three seconds. This must be done within
five seconds of completing step 1.
Your personal code is now erased and only the factory set 5–digit code
will work.
Anti-scan feature
If the wrong code has been entered 7 times (35 consecutive button
presses), the keypad is disabled for one minute and the keypad lamp will
flash during this time.Note:Pressing 7•8 and the 9•0 simultaneously
during this one minute period will still lock the vehicle.
The anti-scan feature will turn off after one minute of keypad inactivity.
Unlocking and locking the doors using keyless entry
To unlock the driver’s door,enter the factory set 5-digit code or your
personal code. Each number must be pressed within five seconds of each
other.
To unlock all doors,press the 3•4 control within three seconds of
entering a valid keypad code.
To lock all doors,press the 7•8 and the 9•0 at the same time. You
do notneed to enter the keypad code first.

again within three seconds. If the doors are closed, the horn will chirp

the vehicle will provide you with a warning. After entering your factory
set or personal entry code into the keypad, instead of unlocking the
driver’s door, the vehicle will unlock the driver’s door, lock it, then unlock
it again.
