Battery Replacement
{Warning
Never allow children to play with
the RKE transmitter. The
transmitter contains a small
battery, which can be a choking
hazard. If swallowed, internal burns
can occur, resulting in severe injury
or death. Seek medical attention
immediately if a battery is
swallowed.
{Warning
To avoid personal injury, do not
touch metal surfaces on the RKE
transmitter when it has been
exposed to extreme heat. These
surfaces can be hot to the touch at
temperatures above 59 °C (138 °F).
Caution
When replacing the battery, do not
touch any of the circuitry on the
transmitter. Static from your body
could damage the transmitter.
Caution
Always replace the battery with the
correct type. Replacing the battery
with an incorrect type could
potentially create a risk of battery
explosion. Dispose of used batteries
according to instructions and local
laws. Do not attempt to burn,
crush, or cut the used battery, and
avoid exposing the battery to
environments with extremely low
air pressures or high temperatures.
Caution
If the RKE transmitter is not
reassembled properly, liquids could
enter the housing and damage the
circuitry, resulting in an RKE
transmitter malfunction and/or
failure. To prevent damage, always
follow the steps for RKE transmitter
reassembly in this manual to
ensure the transmitter is sealed
properly whenever the RKE
transmitter is opened.

Access system.
Unlocking the driver door with the key

the alarm.
How to Detect a Tamper
Condition
IfKis pressed and the horn chirps
and the lights flash three times, the
alarm was activated while the alarm
system was armed.
If the alarm system has been
activated, a message will appear on
the DIC.
Power Sounder, Inclination
Sensor, and Intrusion Sensor
In addition to the standard
theft-deterrent system features, this
system may also have an inclination
sensor, an intrusion sensor, and power
sounder.
The power sounder provides an
audible alarm that is different from
the vehicle’s horn. It has its own power source, and can sound an alarm
when the vehicle’s battery is
compromised.
The inclination sensor can set off the
alarm if it senses movement of the
vehicle, such as a change in vehicle
orientation.
The intrusion sensor monitors the
vehicle interior, and can set off the
alarm if it senses an unauthorized
entry into the vehicle’s interior. Do
not allow passengers or pets to remain
in the vehicle when the intrusion
sensor is activated.
Before arming the theft-deterrent
system and activating the intrusion
sensor:
.Make sure all doors and windows
are completely closed.
.Secure any loose items such as a
sunshades.
.Make sure there are no obstructions
blocking the sensors in the front
overhead console.
Inclination and Intrusion
Sensors Disable Switch
It is recommended that the inclination
and intrusion sensors be deactivated if
pets are left in the vehicle or if the
vehicle is being transported.
With the vehicle turned off, press
o
in the overhead console. The indicator
light will come on momentarily,
indicating that the sensor has been
disabled until the next time the alarm
system is armed.

is a theft-deterrent device. This
feature locks the steering column
when the vehicle is turned off and the
driver door is opened, or when the
driver door is opened and then the
vehicle is turned off. The steering
column unlocks when the vehicle is
turned on.
The Driver Information Center (DIC)

Or, you may try placing the
transmitter in the transmitter pocket
located in the center console. See
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation07.
If the ignition mode will not change
with the other transmitter or in the
transmitter pocket, your vehicle needs
service. If the ignition does change
modes, the first transmitter may be
faulty. See your dealer who can service
the theft-deterrent system and have a
new RKE transmitter programmed to
the vehicle.
It is possible for the immobilizer
system to learn new or replacement
RKE transmitters. Up to eight
transmitters can be programmed for
the vehicle. To program additional
transmitters, see “Programming
Transmitters to the Vehicle ”under
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation 07.
Do not leave the transmitter or device
that disarms or deactivates the
theft-deterrent system in the vehicle.Exterior Mirrors
