Matching Transmitter(s) to Your Vehicle
Each RKE 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 addi-
tional transmitters so they can also be re-
coded to match the new transmitter. Once
your dealer has coded the new transmitter,
the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. The vehicle can have a maximum
of four transmitters matched to it. Or, refer
to “Relearn Remote Key” under “DIC Oper-
ation and Displays” in “Driver Information
Center (DIC)” in the “Instrument Panel”
section for instructions on how to match
RKE transmitters to your vehicle.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your RKE
transmitter should last about four years.
The battery is weak if the transmitter will
not work at the normal range in any loca-
tion. If you have to get close to your vehi-
cle before the transmitter works, it is
probably time to change the battery.
To replace the battery in the RKE transmit-
ter, do the following:
1) Use a flat thin object to pry open the
transmitter.

2) Once the transmitter is separated, use
a pencil or similar object to remove the
old battery. Do not use a metal object.
3) Slide the new battery into the transmit-
ter with the positive side of the battery
facing down. Use a type CR2032 bat-
tery, or equivalent type.
4) Snap the transmitter back together
tightly to be sure no moisture can enter.
5) Check the operation of the transmitter.
CAUTION
When replacing the battery, use care
not to touch any of the circuitry.
Static from your body transferred to
these surfaces may damage the
transmitter.
