detected inside the vehicle while
you are trying to turn the ignition
off. The vehicle may be near a
strong radio antenna signal causing
the keyless access system to be
jammed. The vehicle will remain
in ACCESSORY until the vehicle
is turned off or is restarted,
or five minutes has expired. If you
turn the ignition off and you cannot
find the keyless access transmitter,
you will not be able to restart the
vehicle. The keyless access
transmitter needs to be inside of the
vehicle in order for the vehicle to

Personalization
Many features on your vehicle can
be personalized. This means that
the operation of these features
can be set to operate differently
depending on who is driving the
vehicle. See“Personal Options”
later in this section for the features
that you can personalize.
The personalization settings for
other features are automatically
updated and saved as the driver
adjusts them. These include the
following settings and presets:
.The radio presets, tone, volume,
fade, balance, equalization (EQ)
settings and source (radio
or CD)
.The last climate control setting
.The Head-Up Display (HUD)
position and dimming level,
if your vehicle has this feature
.The instrument panel cluster
dimming level and last selected
DIC display
Separate personalization settings
are saved for two different drivers.
One of the keyless access
transmitters is assigned to driver 1.
The other is assigned to driver 2.
The back of the keyless access
transmitters are labelled 1 or 2 to
correspond to each driver.

recalled when one of the following
occurs:
.The lock or unlock button on the
keyless access transmitter,
labelled 1 or 2, is pressed.
.The appropriate memory
button, 1 or 2, located on
the driver's door is pressed.
See “Memory Seat, Mirrors and
Steering Wheel” underPower

.A valid keyless access
transmitter is detected upon
opening the driver's door.
If more than one valid keyless
access transmitter is detected upon
opening the driver's door, the driver
preferences for the lowest driver
number will be recalled.
If a keyless access transmitter
that is not labelled 1 or 2 is used,
the personalization system will not
recognize the transmitter. The Driver
Information Center (DIC) will not
display a current driver number
and the features that are normally
programmed through the DIC will be
set to the default states. Also, if the
OPTION button is pressed, the DIC

devices such as garage door
openers, security systems, and
home automation devices. Do not use this system with any
garage door opener that does not
have the stop and reverse feature.
This includes any garage door
opener model manufactured before
April 1, 1982.
Read the instructions completely
before attempting to program the
transmitter. Because of the steps
involved, it may be helpful to

use in other vehicles, as well as,
for future programming. Only the
original remote control transmitter
is needed for Fixed Code
programming. The programmed
buttons should be erased when the
vehicle is sold or the lease ends.
