Only RKE transmitters
programmed to this vehicle will
work. If a transmitter is lost or
stolen, a replacement can be
purchased and programmed through
your dealer. When the replacement
transmitter is programmed to this
vehicle, all remaining transmitters
must also be reprogrammed.
Any lost or stolen transmitters
will no longer work once the new
transmitter is programmed. Each

The battery in the transmitter is
weak and should be changed if it
does not work at the normal range
in any location.
Notice:When replacing the
battery, do not touch any of the
circuitry on the transmitter. Static

transmitter. To replace the battery:
1. Separate the transmitter with a
flat, thin object inserted into the
notch on the side.
2. Remove the old battery. Do not use a metal object.
3. Insert the new battery. Replace with a CR2032 or equivalent
battery.
4. Snap the transmitter back together.

open it. The chance of being
thrown out of the vehicle in
a crash is increased if the
doors are not locked. So, all
