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 modi cations to this system by other

authorization to use this equipment.
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 90.
If you are still having trouble, see your dealer
or a quali ed 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.
The remote keyless entry transmitter will look
different if your vehicle was purchased in Canada,
however it will operate the same.
LOCK:Press this button
to lock all of the doors.
The turn signal lights will ash once to con rm
that the doors have locked.UNLOCK:Press this button once to unlock the
driver’s door. The turn signal lights will ash twice
and the interior lamps will come on to con rm that
the door has unlocked. If the UNLOCK button is
pressed again within three seconds, all remaining
doors will unlock and the turn signal lights will ash
twice and interior lamps will remain on to con rm
that all doors & hatch have unlocked. The interior
lamps will stay on for 15 seconds or until the
ignition is turned on.
HATCH/GLASS:Press this button to open the
rear liftglass. If the ignition key is in the ON
position, the liftglass cannot be opened by the
HATCH/GLASS button on the transmitter.

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
three years.You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter
will not work at the normal range in any location.
If you have to get close to your vehicle before
the transmitter works, it is 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.
91

To replace the battery, do the following:
1. Insert a small coin or similar object to separate
the bottom half from the top half of the
transmitter.
2. Remove the battery and replace it with the
new one. Make sure the positive side of the
battery faces upward. For battery replacement,
use a three-volt battery, type CR2032, or
equivalent.
3. Snap the transmitter back together tightly to
be sure no moisture can enter.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)
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.From the outside, use your key or the remote
keyless entry transmitter, if equipped. SeeRemote
Keyless Entry (RKE) System Operation on
page 90for more information.
If your vehicle has power door locks, open the
driver’s door by turning the key in the lock toward
the rear of the vehicle. Turning the key back
toward the center, then toward the rear again will
unlock all of the doors. Using the key in the
passenger’s door will also unlock all of the doors.
Lock a door by turning the key toward the front
of the vehicle. If you have power door locks, all the
doors will lock.

{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the
liftgate or liftglass open because carbon
monoxide (CO) gas can come into your
vehicle. You cannot see or smell CO. It
can cause unconsciousness and even
death. If you must drive with the liftgate
open or if electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the liftgate or
liftglass:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your climate control
system to its highest speed and select
the control setting that will force
outside air into your vehicle. See
“Climate Control System” in the Index.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the
way. SeeEngine Exhaust on page 119.
