The vehicle comes with two
transmitters. Each transmitter will
have a number on top of it,
“1” or “2.” These numbers
correspond to the driver of the
vehicle. For example, the memory
seat position for driver 1 will be
recalled when using the transmitter
labeled “1,” if enabled through the
DIC. See Memory Seats on
page 3‑7 and Vehicle
Personalization on page 5‑45 for
more information.
Programming Transmitters to
the Vehicle
Only RKE transmitters programmed
to the vehicle will work. If a
transmitter is lost or stolen, a
replacement can be purchased and
programmed through your dealer.
When the replacement transmitter is
programmed to the vehicle, all
remaining transmitters must also be
programmed. Any lost or stolen
transmitters no longer work once the
new transmitter is programmed.
Each vehicle can have up to eight
transmitters programmed to it.
Battery Replacement
Replace the battery if the REPLACE
BATTERY IN REMOTE KEY
message displays in the DIC. See
“Replace Battery In Remote Key”
under Key and Lock Messages on
page 5‑36 for additional information.
Notice: When replacing the
battery, do not touch any of the
circuitry on the transmitter. Static
from your body could damage the
transmitter.

1. Separate the transmitter with a
flat, thin object inserted into the
notch, above the metal base.
2. Remove the old battery. Do not
use a metal object.
3. Insert the new battery, positive
