When your vehicle was shipped from the factory, it was
programmed to Mode 4. The mode to which your
vehicle was programmed may have been changed since
it left the factory. To determine the mode to which your
vehicle is programmed or to program your vehicle to a
different mode, do the following:
1. Follow the instructions for “Entering Programming
Mode” listed previously.
2. Turn the interior lamps thumbwheel all the way to
the right and then back slightly to the left.
3. Count the number of chimes you hear. The number
of chimes tells you which mode your vehicle is set
for. (If you do not wish to change the current mode,
you can either exit the programming mode by
following the instructions earlier in this section or
program the next feature available on your vehicle.)
4. Turn the interior lamps thumbwheel all the way to
the right and then back slightly to the left again to
change the current mode.
5. Repeat Step 4 until you hear the number of chimes
that matches the number of the mode you want.
The mode you selected is now set. You can either exit
the programming mode by following the instructions
earlier in this section or program the next feature
available on your vehicle.
