•Remove the old batteries.
•Insert the new batteries in the direction of the arrow
with the positive symbol facing upwards.
•Replace the battery cover and press on it until you feel
it engage.
NOTE:Only replace the batteries in pairs.
The system may have to be resynchronized if the trans-
mitter is without voltage for several minutes. To synchro-
nize, aim the transmitter eye at the vehicle and briefly
press either the Lock or the Unlock button twice. Withinapproximately 30 seconds, insert the key in the ignition
and turn it to the ON/RUN position. The remote control
should once again be operational.
SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM
The system monitors the doors, rear liftgate/decklid,
hood, and ignition for unauthorized operation. The se-
curity alarm system is automatically armed or disarmed
with the remote control or any of your vehicle’s keys by
locking or unlocking the vehicle.
The antitheft alarm is armed within approximately 10
seconds after locking the vehicle. A blinking light in the
tow away alarm switch indicates that the alarm is armed.
Once the alarm system has been armed, the exterior
vehicle lights will flash and an alarm will sound when a
door, the rear liftgate/decklid, the hood, or the glove
compartment is opened, or if someone attempts to raise
the vehicle for towing. The alarm will flash the exterior
lamps for approximately three minutes and sound an
audible alarm for 30 seconds. The alarm will stay on even
if the activating element is immediately closed.

it from approximately 12 inches (30 cm).
WARNING!
If the hood is not fully latched, it could fly up when
the vehicle is moving, and block your forward vi-
sion. You could have a collision. Be sure all hood
latches are fully latched before driving.

If you do not successfully program the universal trans-
ceiver to learn the signal of your hand-held transmitter,

Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals to “time-out” (or quit) after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long enough for the
universal transceiver to pick up the signal during pro-
gramming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate
operators are designed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using the programming
procedures (regardless of where you live), replace Pro-
gramming Step 5 with the following:
NOTE:If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the
“cycling” process to prevent possible overheating.
5.
Continue to press and hold the universal transceiver
button while you press and release every two seconds
(“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the frequencysignal has successfully been accepted by the universal
transmitter. (The indicator light will flash slowly and then
rapidly.) Proceed with Programming Step 6 to complete.
Using the Universal Transceiver
To operate the universal transceiver, simply press and
release the programmed button. Activation will now
occur for the programmed device (i.e. garage door opener,
gate operator, security system, entry door lock, home/
office lighting, etc.) For convenience, the hand-held trans-
mitter of the device may also be used at any time.
Erasing Universal Transceiver Buttons
To erase programming from the three buttons (individual
buttons cannot be erased but can be reprogrammed – see
below), follow this procedure:
•Press and hold the two outer universal transceiver
buttons until the indicator light begins to flash after 20
seconds. Release both buttons. Do not hold for longer
than 30 seconds. The universal transceiver is now in
the program (or learning) mode and can be pro-
grammed at any time beginning with Programming
Step 4.
