Illumination on Remote Activation
This feature provides interior illumination when a
remote keyless entry door unlock command is received
and executed by your vehicle. Your vehicle’s ignition
must be off for the Illumination on Remote Activation
feature
to
work. The interior lamps will illuminate until
your vehicle’s ignition is turned to the
RUN
position or
until an illumination period
of
40
seconds has elapsed. If
a door
is
opened during the illumination period, the
timed illumination will be canceled, and
the
interior
lamps will remain on since a door is open.
Instant Alarm
This feature allows you to activate an alarm by pressing a
switch on the remote keyless entry transmitter.
Your vehicle’s ignition must be
off
for the Instant Alarm to
work. When
you
press the special horn button on the remote
keyless entry transmitter, your vehicle’s headlamps will
flash, the horn will
honk
repeatedly, and your interior lamps
will illuminate, attracting attention if you need it. The alarm
will continue until:
1.
You press the alarm button on the RKE transmitter a
second time.
2.
The vehicle’s ignition is turned to the
RUN
position.
3.
An alarm period of about two minutes has elapsed.
Matching Transmitter(s) To Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry 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 only four transmitters
matched
to
it.
