With this feature, you can lock and unlock the doors or the trunk and turn on your vehicle's interior lamps from about 10 feet (3 m) away using the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter supplied with your vehicle.

[block ] (Lock): Press this symbol on the RKE transmitter to lock the doors. This also arms the theft-deterrent system.

You can program your vehicle so that the exterior lamps will flash and/or the horn will sound when you lock the doors with the RKE transmitter. See DIC Vehicle Personalization for more information on programming this feature.

(Unlock): Press this symbol on the RKE transmitter to unlock the driver's door. This also disarms the theft-deterrent system. Press the button again to unlock the other doors. You can program your vehicle so that the exterior lamps will flash when you unlock the doors with the RKE transmitter. See DIC Vehicle Personalization for more information on programming this feature.

(Panic Alarm): The RKE transmitter has an instant panic alarm. Press this button when the ignition is turned off. The horn will sound and the exterior lamps will flash for up to 30 seconds. To stop the instant panic alarm, press this button again or turn the ignition to ON.

(Trunk): Press and hold this button for approximately one second to open the trunk.

The RKE transmitter can be used to recall the memory settings for up to two drivers. For more information, see DIC Vehicle Personalization and Memory Seat and Mirrors .

Matching Transmitter(s) to Your Vehicle

Each RKE transmitter is coded to prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring any remaining transmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle can have a maximum of four transmitters matched to it.

Battery Replacement

Under normal use, the battery in the RKE transmitter should last about four years.

The battery is weak if the transmitter will not work at the normal range in any location. If you have to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works, it is probably time to change the battery.

Notice: When replacing the battery, do not touch any of the circuitry on the transmitter. Static from your body could damage the transmitter.

1. Use a flat thin object to pry open the transmitter.
2. Remove the old battery, but do not use a metal object.



3. Insert the new battery as the instructions under the cover indicate.
4. Snap the front and the back of the transmitter together. Make sure the cover is on tightly, so water will not get in.
5. Press any button on the RKE transmitter to resynchronize the transmitter.
6. Test the operation of the transmitter with the vehicle.
