Keys, Doors, and Windows

If a key is lost or damaged, see your
dealer to have a new key made.

Programming without a
Recognized Transmitter

U.S. owners are permitted to
program a new key to their vehicle
when a recognized key is not
available. Canadian regulations
require that Canadian owners see
their dealer for programming new
keys when a recognized keys is not
available.

If there are no currently recognized
keys available, follow this procedure
to program the first key.

This procedure will take
approximately 30 minutes to
complete for the first key. The
vehicle must be off and all of the
keys you wish to program must be
with you.

1. Insert the new vehicle key into

the ignition.

2. Turn to ON/RUN. The security

light will come on.

3. Wait 10 minutes until the

security light turns off.

4. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.

5. Repeat Steps 2

4 two more

times. After the third time, turn
to ON/RUN; the key is learned
and all previously known keys
will no longer work with the
vehicle.

Remaining keys can be learned by
following the procedure in

Programming with a Recognized

Transmitter.

Battery Replacement

The battery is not rechargeable. To
replace the battery:

Caution

When replacing the battery, do
not touch any of the circuitry on
the transmitter. Static from your
body could damage the
transmitter.

1. Extend the key blade and open

the battery cover on the back
of the transmitter by prying with
a finger.

2. Remove the used battery by

pushing on the battery and
sliding it toward the key blade.

3. Insert the new battery, positive

side facing up. Push the
battery down until it is held in
place. Replace with a CR2032
or equivalent battery.
