transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
purchased through your GM dealer. Remember to
bring any additional transmitters so they can also
be re-coded to match the new transmitter. Once
your dealer has coded the new transmitter, the lost

Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some
cities. Although your vehicle has a number of
theft-deterrent features, we know that nothing we
put on it can make it impossible to steal.

theft-deterrent alarm system.
To activate the theft-deterrent system:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch
or the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
If you are using the RKE transmitter, the door
does not need to be open.
3. Close all doors.Once armed, the alarm will go off if someone
tries to enter the vehicle without using the RKE
transmitter or a key or turns the ignition on with an
incorrect key. The horn will sound and the turn
signal lamps will ash for about two minutes.
When the alarm is armed, the trunk may be opened
with the RKE transmitter. The power door lock
switches are disabled and the doors remain locked.
You must use your RKE transmitter or your key to
unlock the doors when the system is armed.
Arming with the Power Lock Switch
The alarm system will arm when you use either
power lock switch to lock the doors while any door
or the trunk is open and the key is removed
from the ignition.

RKE transmitter to lock the doors, if the key is not
in the ignition.

The alarm system will disarm when you use your
RKE transmitter to unlock the doors.
The rst time a remote unlock command is
received, three ashes will be seen and three horn
chirps heard to indicate an alarm condition has
occurred since last arming.

1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the
engine off.
3. Using the DIC, press the vehicle information
button until the LEARN TIRE POSITIONS
message displays.
4. Press the set/reset button to allow the system
to learn the tire positions. The horn will sound
twice to indicate the receiver is ready, and

will display. The TPMS system is ready for
the sensor matching process to begin.
5. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
6. Remove the valve cap from the tire’s valve
stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing
or decreasing the tire’s air pressure for
ve seconds, or until a horn chirp sounds.
The horn chirp, which may take up to
30 seconds to sound, conrms that the
sensor identication code has been matched
to the tire/wheel position. To decrease the
tire’s air-pressure use the pointed end of the
valve cap, a pencil-style air pressure gage,
or a key.7. Proceed to the passenger’s side front tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
8. Proceed to the passenger’s side rear tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
9. Proceed to the driver’s side rear tire, and
repeat the procedure in Step 6.
10. After hearing the conrming horn chirp for the
driver’s side rear tire, the tire learning process
ends. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
11. Set all four tires to the recommended air
pressure level as indicated on the tire and
loading information label.
12. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems.
The compact spare tire and wheel assembly
does not have a TPMS sensor. If you replace
one of the road tires with the compact spare tire,
the SERVICE TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM
message will be displayed on the DIC display
screen. This message should go off once
you re-install the road tire containing the
TPMS sensor.
