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 transmitter will not unlock your vehicle.
Each vehicle can have a maximum of four
transmitters matched to it.

The security light, located on the instrument panel
cluster, will turn on to indicate that arming has been
initiated. Once the system is armed, the security
light will ash once every three seconds.
If the security light is ashing twice per second,
this means that a door is open.
If you do not want to arm the system, you may lock
the car with the manual lock knobs on the doors.

You can disarm the system by doing any one of
the following:
Press the remote keyless entry transmitter
unlock button.
Turn the ignition on.
If the system is armed and the trunk is opened
using the trunk release button on the transmitter,
the system will temporarily disarm itself and re-arm
when the trunk has been closed. This allows you to
exit the vehicle, lock the doors using the transmitter,
and open the trunk using the transmitter without
having to disarm and re-arm the system.
Once the system is disarmed, the security light will
stop ashing.
How the System Alarm is Activated

by either:
Opening the driver’s door or trunk. This will
cause a ten second pre-alarm chirp followed
by a thirty second full alarm of horn and lights.
Opening any other door. This will immediately
cause a full alarm of horn and lights for
thirty seconds.
When an alarm event has nished, the system will
re-arm itself automatically.

following:
Press the lock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter. The system will then
re-arm itself.

Electric Power Management
This vehicle has Electric Power Management

and then adjusts the voltage for best performance
and extended life of the battery.
When the battery’s state of charge is low, the
voltage is raised slightly to quickly put the charge
back in. When the state of charge is high, the
voltage is lowered slightly to prevent overcharging.
If the vehicle has a voltmeter gage or voltage
display on the Driver Information Center (DIC), you
may see the voltage move up or down. This is
normal. If there is a problem, an alert will be
displayed.
