Section 2 Features and Controls
85

Your vehicle has
one double-sided key
for the ignition and
all door locks.
If you ever lose your key, your dealer will be able
to assist you with obtaining a new one.
Notice:If you ever lock your keys in your
vehicle, you may have to damage the vehicle
to get in. Be sure you have spare keys.
If you ever do get locked out of your vehicle, call
GM Roadside Assistance Center. SeeRoadside
Assistance Program on page 408.Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System
If the vehicle has the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
system, it operates on a radio frequency subject
to Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
Rules and with Industry Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
Changes or modifications to this system by other
than an authorized service facility could void
authorization to use this equipment.
87

At times you may notice a decrease in range. This
is normal for any RKE system. If the transmitter
does not work or if you have to stand closer
to your vehicle for the transmitter to work, try this:
•Check the distance. You may be too far
from your vehicle. You may need to stand
closer during rainy or snowy weather.
•Check the location. Other vehicles or objects
may be blocking the signal. Take a few steps
to the left or right, hold the transmitter
higher, and try again.
•Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See “Battery Replacement”
underRemote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation on page 88.
•If you are still having trouble, see your dealer
or a qualified technician for service.
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation
If your vehicle has this feature, you can lock and
unlock your doors from about 3 feet (1 m) up
to 30 feet (9 m) away using the remote keyless
entry transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
To unlock the
driver’s door,
press the UNLOCK
button once.
If you press the button again within five seconds,
all of the doors will unlock. When the UNLOCK
button is pressed, the interior dome lamps
are turned on for about 40 seconds or until the
ignition switch is activated. Press the LOCK button
to lock all doors.
88

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.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote
keyless entry transmitter should last about
two years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter
won’t work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to get close to your vehicle before the
transmitter works, it’s probably time to change
the battery.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care
not to touch any of the circuitry. Static
from your body transferred to these surfaces
may damage the transmitter.
1. Insert a thin object, such as a coin, into the
slot between the covers of the transmitter
near the key ring hole. Remove the bottom by
twisting the object.
2. Remove and replace the battery, positive (+)
side down. Use one CR2032 battery.

Doors and Locks
Door Locks
{CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers, especially children, can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. When a door is
locked, the handle will not open it.
You increase the chance of being
thrown out of the vehicle in a crash if
the doors are not locked. So, wear
safety belts properly and lock the
doors whenever you drive.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)

Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out.
A child can be overcome by extreme
heat and can suffer permanent injuries
or even death from heat stroke.
Always lock your vehicle whenever
you leave it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down
or stop your vehicle. Locking your
doors can help prevent this from
happening.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your
vehicle.
If your vehicle is equipped with keyless entry, you
can use your transmitter to lock or unlock your
vehicle. SeeRemote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation on page 88.
