1. Remove the emergency key by sliding the mechanicallatch on the back of the RKE transmitter sideways
with your thumb. Then, pull the key out with your
other hand.
2. Separating RKE halves requires screw removal (if equipped) and gently prying the two halves of the
RKE transmitter apart with the emergency key. Make
sure not to damage the seal during removal.
3. Remove the battery by turning the back cover over(battery facing downward) and tapping it lightly on a

NOTE:Only Key Fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start and operate the
vehicle. Once a Key Fob is programmed to a vehicle, it
cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Always remove the Key Fobs from the vehicle and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unat-
tended.
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go,
always remember to place the ignition in the OFF
position.
Duplication of Key Fobs may be performed at an autho-
rized dealer. This procedure consists of programming a
blank Key Fob to the vehicle electronics. A blank Key Fob
is one that has never been programmed.
