Section 2 Features and Controls

LOCK:Press this button to lock all the doors.
The parking lamps may also ash and the horn may
chirp when this button is pressed.
If a door is open or ajar when the lock button is pressed,
the horn will chirp several times to let you know the
doors did not lock and the content theft-deterrent system
is not armed. Pressing the lock button again while the
horn is chirping or within three seconds after the
horn stops sounding, the doors will lock but the content
theft-deterrent system will not arm until the opened
door is closed.
You can program different feedback modes through
the Driver Information Center (DIC). To program
the feedback modes, see “Remote Keyless Entry
Feedback” underDIC Controls and Displays on
page 3-39.
L(Panic):Press this button to make the horn sound
and the headlamps and taillamps ash for up to
30 seconds. To turn them off again, do one of these
three things: wait for 30 seconds; press the panic button
again; or start the vehicle.
Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking 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. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock
your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of
four transmitters matched to it.
