Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each RKE 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 retailer. Remember to
bring any remaining transmitters with you
when you go to your retailer. Each vehicle can
have a maximum of four transmitters matched to it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your RKE
transmitter should last about four years.
The battery is weak if the transmitter does 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.
If the battery is low, a KEY FOB BATT (Battery)
LOW message will display in the vehicle’s DIC.
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.To replace the battery in the RKE transmitter do
the following:
1. Insert a at object, with a thin edge, into the
notch located below the vehicle locator/panic
alarm button, and 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 up. Use one three-volt,
CR2032, or equivalent, type battery.

Ignition Positions
With the key in the
ignition switch, you can
turn it to four different
positions.
Notice:Using a tool to force the key from the
ignition switch could cause damage or
break the key. Use the correct key and turn the
key only with your hand. Make sure the key
is in all the way. If none of this works,
then your vehicle needs service.
9(OFF):This is the only position from which
you can remove the key. It also locks the ignition
and transaxle. A warning chime sounds if the
driver’s door is opened while the ignition is off and
the key is left in the ignition.ACC (ACCESSORY):This position lets you use
things like the radio and windshield wipers
while the engine is not running.
Use this position if your vehicle must be pushed or
towed, but never try to push-start your vehicle.
SeeRecreational Vehicle Towing on page 247.
R(ON):This position unlocks the ignition. It
is also the position to where the key returns after
you release the switch and the engine starts.
The switch will stay in this position while the
engine is running. But even while the engine is not
running, you can use ON to operate the electrical
accessories, and to display some instrument
panel warning lights.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key
in the ACC or ON position with the engine off.
You might not be able to start your vehicle if the
battery is allowed to drain for an extended
period of time.
/(START):This position starts the engine.
When the engine starts, release the key.
The ignition switch will return to the ON position
for normal driving.

RES+ (Resume):Press RES+ to resume a set
speed and to accelerate the speed.
SET−(Set):Press SET– to set a speed and to
decrease the speed.
To set a speed do the following:
1. Press
Ito turn cruise control on. The
indicator light on the button comes on.
2. Get up to the desired speed.
3. Press the SET−and release it. The cruise
symbol displays in the instrument panel
cluster to show the system is engaged.
4. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
When the brakes are applied, the cruise control
shuts off.
If the vehicle is in cruise control and the Traction
Control System (TCS) begins to limit wheel
spin, the cruise control automatically disengages.
SeeTraction Control System (TCS) on page 217.
When road conditions allow, the cruise control
can be used again.
Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set the cruise control at a desired
speed and then apply the brakes. This disengages
the cruise control. The cruise symbol in the
instrument panel cluster also goes out indicating
cruise is no longer engaged. To return to the
previously set speed, you do not need to
go through the set process again. Once the
vehicle is at a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, you can briey press the RES+.
This takes the vehicle back up to the previously
chosen speed and stays there.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
There are two ways to go to a higher speed.
If the cruise control system is already
engaged, press the RES+. Hold it there until
you reach the desired speed, and then release
the button.
To increase the vehicle’s speed in very small
amounts, briey press the RES+ and then
release it. Each time this is done, the vehicle
goes about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.

Parade Dimming
Parade dimming is a separate lighting mode that
comes on while the parking lamps are turned
on during the day. It prevents the display lights and
indicator lights from being dim, while the parking
lamps are used during the day.
Overhead Console Reading Lamps
The vehicle may have reading lamps on the
overhead console. These lamps come on when
the doors are opened if the lamp switch is
not in the OFF position. Press the side of each
lamp to turn them on and off, while the doors are
closed.
Overhead Ambient Lighting
These lamps will automatically turn on and off as
controlled by the light sensor located on top of
the instrument panel.
Trunk Lamp
The trunk lamp comes on when the trunk is open
and turns off when it is closed.
Battery Run-Down Protection
Your vehicle has a battery run-down feature
designed to protect the vehicle’s battery.
When any interior lamp (trunk, reading lamps, or
dome lamp) is left on when the ignition is
turned off, the battery run-down protection system
automatically shuts the lamp off after 20 minutes.
This prevents draining of the battery.
To reactivate the interior lamps, do one of the
following:
Open any door.
Press any Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter button.
Press the power door lock switch.
Press the remote trunk release.
Turn the lamp that was left on to off and then
to on again.

Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic):Select AUTO on both the fan
speed knob and the air delivery mode knob to
activate the automatic system. When automatic
operation is active the system controls the
inside temperature and air delivery.
Use the steps below to place the entire system in
full automatic control:
1. Turn the fan knob and the mode knob to the
AUTO position.
The current set temperature displays. When
AUTO is selected, the air conditioning
operation and air inlet is automatically
controlled. The air conditioning compressor
runs while the outside temperature is
over about 40°F (4°C). The air inlet is normally
set to outside air. If it is hot outside, the air
inlet can automatically switch to recirculate
inside air to help quickly cool down your
vehicle.
2. Set the temperature.
An initial setting of 73°F (23°C) is
recommended. Allow about 20 minutes for the
system to regulate. Press the
worxarrow
temperature buttons to adjust the temperaturesetting as necessary. If the temperature is set
at 60°F (15°C) the system remains at the
maximum cooling setting. If the temperature is
set at 90°F (32°C) the system remains at the
maximum heat setting. Choosing either
maximum setting does not cause the vehicle to
heat or cool any faster.
Be careful not to cover the sensor located on
the top of the instrument panel near the
windshield. This sensor regulates air
temperature based on the intensity of the sun.
Also do not cover the sensor grille on the
lower right side of the climate control
faceplate, as this regulates the inside
temperature.
To avoid blowing cold air at engine start-up in
cold weather, the system delays turning on
the fan until warm air is available. The length
of delay depends on the engine coolant
temperature. Turning the fan knob overrides
this delay and changes the fan to the selected
speed.
