Operation
The driver’s door will unlock automatically when
UNLOCK is pressed on the transmitter. If UNLOCK
is pressed again within five seconds, the passenger’s
door will also unlock. All doors will lock when LOCK
is pressed.
The hatch will unlock when the REAR 2X button
on the transmitter is pressed twice within five seconds
(pause slightly between presses) and as long as the
ignition is turned to OFF. If the ignition is on, the
REAR 2X button will only work if the transmission
is in PARK (P) for an automatic transmission, or if
the parking brake is set on a manual transmission.
The system will turn on the interior lamps for about
40 seconds (or until the ignition is turned to RUN),
when you unlock the doors or hatch. The interior
lamps will go off when you lock the doors.
Operating the remote keyless entry transmitter may
interact with the content theft
-deterrent/alarm system
(if equipped). See “Content Theft
-Deterrent/Alarm
System” in the Index.
Alarm/Panic Mode
If you are involved in a panic situation, press the horn
symbol button on your remote keyless entry transmitter
and the horn will sound and the parking lamps will
flash. This will draw needed attention to you and your
vehicle. To turn this feature off, either push the horn
symbol button again or turn the ignition key to RUN.
This feature will not work if your ignition is on or if
the transmitter is 30 feet (9 m) or more away from
your vehicle.
Transmitter Verification (If Equipped)
This feature provides feedback to the holder of the
remote keyless entry transmitter that a command has
been received by the keyless entry receiver. The parking
lamps will flash on every lock and unlock command
and the horn will sound only if the LOCK button is
pressed twice within five seconds. This allows for silent
operation of locking and unlocking, unless a confirming
horn chirp is desired. Other options may be selected for
this feature (see “Feature Customization” in the Index).
