Replacement Integrated Keyhead Transmitters (IKT) and coded
keys or Intelligent Access Keys
Note:Your vehicle comes equipped with two Integrated Keyhead
Transmitters (IKTs) or two Intelligent Access Keys.
TheIntegrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT)functions as both a
programmed ignition key that operates all the locks and starts the
vehicle, as well as a remote keyless entry transmitter. A maximum of
eight coded keys can be programmed to your vehicle; only four of these
eight coded keys can be IKTs with remote entry functionality.
TheIntelligent Access Keyfunctions as both a programmed key that
operates the driver door lock, activates Intelligent Access with Push
Button Start systems as well as a remote keyless entry transmitter. A
maximum of four Intelligent Access Keys can be programmed to your
vehicle.
If your programmed transmitters or standard SecuriLockcoded keys
(IKTs only) are lost or stolen and you don’t have an extra coded key, you
will need to have your vehicle towed to an authorized dealer. The key
codes need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys will need
to be programmed.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly. Store an extra programmed key
away from the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent any
inconveniences. Please visit an authorized dealer to purchase additional
spare or replacement keys.
Programming spare Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT) keys
If you have a Intelligent Access Keys, refer toProgramming spare
intelligent access keysin this section.
You can program your own Integrated Keyhead Transmitters or standard
SecuriLockcoded keys to your vehicle. This procedure will program
both the engine immobilizer keycode and the remote entry transmitter
portion of the IKT to your vehicle.Note:A maximum of eight coded
keys can be programmed to your vehicle; only four of these eight can be
IKTs with remote entry functionality.
Tips:
•Only use Integrated Keyhead Transmitters (IKTs) or standard
SecuriLockkeys.
•You must have two previously programmed coded keys (keys that
already operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed
key(s) readily accessible.

•If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
take your vehicle to your authorized dealer to have the spare key(s)
programmed.
Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmedcoded keyinto the ignition.
2. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three
seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition off and remove the firstcoded keyfrom the
ignition.
4. After three seconds but within ten seconds of turning the ignition off,
insert the second previouslycoded keyinto the ignition.
5. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three
seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
6. Turn the ignition off and remove the second previously programmed
coded keyfrom the ignition.
7. After three seconds but within 20 seconds of turning the ignition off
and removing the previously programmedcoded key,insert the new
unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition.
8. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least six
seconds.
9. Remove the newly programmedcoded keyfrom the ignition.
If the key has been successfully programmed it will start the vehicle’s
engine and will operate the remote entry system (if the new key is an
Integrated Keyhead Transmitter). The theft indicator light will illuminate
for three seconds and then go out to indicate successful programming.
If the key was not successfully programmed, it will not start your
vehicle’s engine and/or will not operate the remote entry features. The
theft indicator light may flash on and off. Wait 20 seconds and you may
repeat Steps 1 through 8. If failure repeats, bring your vehicle to your
authorized dealer to have the new key(s) programmed.
To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), wait 20 seconds and
then repeat this procedure from Step 1.

Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
turn signal lamps and will sound the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the ignition is off. Any of the
following actions will prearm the alarm system:
•Press the
control on the transmitter.
When you press the lock control twice within three seconds on your
transmitter, the horn will chirp once to let you know that all doors, the
hood and the trunk are closed. If any of these are not closed, the horn
will chirp twice to warn you that a door, the hood or the trunk is still
open.
•Press the driver or passenger
power door lock control while the
door is open, then close the door.
•Press and hold the 7•8 and 9•
0 controls on the keyless entry
pad at the same time to lock the
doors (driver’s door must be
closed).
•If equipped with Intelligent
Access Key, lock the door by
turning the key in the door key
cylinder.
There is a 20 second countdown
when any of the above actions occur
before the vehicle becomes armed.
Each door, the hood or the trunk is
armed individually, and if any are
open, they must be closed for that entry point to enter the 20 second
countdown.
The turn signal lamps will flash once when all doors, the hood or the
trunk are closed indicating the vehicle is locked and entering the
20 second countdown.

•Any door, the hood or the trunk is opened without using the door key,
keypad, Integrated Keyhead Transmitter or Intelligent Access Key.
•Turn the ignition on with an invalid SecuriLockkey or IKT (if
equipped).
