You can use the keyless entry
keypad to:
•lock or unlock the doors without
using a key.
•activate or deactivate the
autolock feature.
The keypad can be operated with
the factory set 5–digit entry code;
this code is located on the owner’s
wallet card in the glove box, is
marked on the computer module,
and is available from your
authorized dealer. You can also
create your own 5–digit personal
entry code. In the event the wallet
card is lost, the factory set code cannot be reprogrammed.
When pressing the controls on the keypad, press the middle of the
controls to ensure a good activation.

Up to three personal entry codes may be programmed to the vehicle. To
create your own personal entry code:
1. Enter the factory set code.
2. Within five seconds press the 1•2 on the keypad.
3. Enter your personal 5-digit code. Each number must be entered
within five seconds of each other.
4. Press 1•2, 3•4or5•6 to indicate which of the three personal
entry code positions you wish to use.
5. The doors will again lock then unlock to confirm that your personal
key code has been programmed to the module.
Tips:
•Do not set a code that uses five of the same number.
•Do not use five numbers in sequential order.
•The factory set code will work even if you have set your own personal
code.
•If you program a code to a position that already contains a set code,
the previously-set code will be erased.
