Replacing lost intelligent access keys (IA keys)
If you would like to have your IA keys reprogrammed because you lost
one, or would like to buy additional transmitters you can either
reprogram them yourself, or take all transmitters to your authorized
dealer for reprogramming.
How to reprogram your intelligent access keys (IA keys)
To program new IA keys yourself, refer to SecuriLock passive
anti-theft system in this chapter. Note: At least two already
programmed transmitters are required to perform this procedure
yourself.
Illuminated entry
The interior lamps, parking lamps and puddle lamps (if equipped)
illuminate when the IA key or the keyless entry keypad is used to unlock
the door(s).
The illuminated entry system will turn off the lights if:
• the ignition is turned on, or
• the
control on the transmitter is pressed, or
• the vehicle is locked using the keyless entry keypad, or
• the vehicle is locked using the key in the driver door cylinder, or
• after 25 seconds of illumination.
The lights will not turn off if:
• they have been turned on with the dimmer control, or
• any door is open.
Illuminated exit
When all vehicle doors are closed and the ignition is turned off, the
interior dome lamps, parking lamps and puddle lamps (if equipped) will
illuminate.
The lights will turn off if all the doors remain closed and
• 25 seconds elapse, or
• the start button is pressed.
Battery saver
The battery saver will shut off the lamps 10 minutes after the ignition
has been turned off.
