KEYS
Your vehicle uses keyless ignition system. The ignition
system consists of a key fob with a Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and an ignition switch. The keyless ignition system
consists of a key fob and Keyless Enter-N-Go button.
A Word About Your Keys
The authorized dealer that sold you your new vehicle has
the key code numbers for your vehicle locks. These num-
bers can be used to order duplicate Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) key fobs. Ask your authorized dealer for these
numbers and keep them in a safe place.
Locking Doors With A Key
You can insert the key with either side up. To lock the door,
turn the key to the right. To unlock the door, turn the key
to the left. Refer to ”Body Lubrication” in Dealer Service”
in “Servicing And Maintenance” for further information.
To Unlock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlockbutton on the key fob
once to unlock the driver ’s door or twice within five
seconds to unlock all doors and liftgate. The turn signal
lights will flash to acknowledge the unlock signal. The
illuminated entry system will also turn on.

This feature lets you program the system to unlock either
the driver ’s door or all doors on the first push of the unlock
button on the key fob. To change the current setting,

After 10 seconds, a chime will sound. In addition, the
Vehicle Security Light will begin to flash. Place the
ignition in the LOCK position and remove the second
key.
4. Insert a blank key into the ignition. Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position within 60 seconds. After 10
seconds, a single chime will sound. In addition, the
Vehicle Security Light will stop flashing. To indicate that
programming is complete, the Vehicle Security Light

The new key is programmed. The key fob will also be
programmed during this procedure.
Repeat this procedure to program up to eight keys. If you
do not have a programmed key fob, contact your autho-
rized dealer for details.
NOTE: If a programmed key fob is lost, see your autho-
rized dealer to have all remaining key fobs erased from the
system’s memory. This will prevent the lost key from
starting your vehicle. The remaining key fobs must then be
reprogrammed. All vehicle key fobs must be taken to an
authorized dealer at the time of service to be repro-
grammed.General Information

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED
This Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the doors, liftgate,
and ignition switch for unauthorized operation.
When the alarm is activated, the interior switches for door
locks are disabled. The Vehicle Security Alarm provides both
audio and visual signals, the horn will sound, the headlights,
park lamps and/or turn signals will flash repeatedly for
three minutes. If the disturbance is still present (driver’s

door, passenger door, other doors, ignition) after three min-
utes, the parking lights and tail lights will flash for an
additional 15 minutes.
To Arm The System
1. Remove the key fob from the ignition and get out of thevehicle.
2. Lock the door using either the power door lock
switch or the key fob lockbutton and close all
doors.
3. The Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will flash rapidly for approximately 16 seconds. This shows
that the Vehicle Security Alarm is arming. During this
period, if a door is opened, the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN position, or the power door locks are un-
locked in any manner, the Vehicle Security Alarm will
automatically disarm. After approximately 16 seconds,
the Vehicle Security Light will flash slowly. This shows
that the Vehicle Security Alarm is fully armed.
Rearming The System
If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to
disarm it, the Vehicle Security Alarm will turn off the horn
after three minutes, turn off all of the visual signals after 15
minutes, and then the Vehicle Security Alarm will rearm itself.
To Disarm The System
Push unlockon the key fob, or insert the key into the
ignition and place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
If something has triggered the Vehicle Security Alarm in
your absence, the horn will sound three times, and exterior
lights blink three times when you unlock the doors. Check
the vehicle for tampering. The Vehicle Security Alarm is
designed to protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will arm
unexpectedly. If you remain in the vehicle and lock the
doors with the key fob, once the Vehicle Security Alarm is
armed (after 16 seconds), when you pull the door handle to
exit, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, push the unlock
button on the key fob to disarm the Vehicle Security
Alarm.
