Resynchronizing Your Transmitter Your RFA system uses acontinually changing code for increased security. Normally,the receiver in your vehicle willkeep track of this changing code. ,If your vehicle does not respondto your transmitter, do the following to determine what'swrong: 1. Get closer to the vehicle and try pressing a button again. Your battery may be low (If so, see "Battery Replacement" in the Index). 2. While standing close to your vehicle, press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on your transmitter at the same time and hold for seven seconds. This will attempt to resynchronize the security code in your RFA key fob transmitter. Matching Transmitter(s)To Your Vehicle Each key fob transmitter is coded to preventanother transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring any remaining transmitters with you when you go to yourdealer. When the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle can have only three transmitters matched to it. To match transmitters to your vehicle: 1. Turn the ignition key to the ON position. 2. Clear any warning messages on the Driver Information Center (DIC) by pressing the RESET button. 3. When resynchronization is achieved, the horn will chirp. Loss of synchronization will occur after transmitter battery replacementor disconnection of the vehicle's battery. If attempts to resynchronize your transmitter to the vehicle are not successful, you may need to match the transmitter to the vehicle. 3. Press the OPTIONS button on the DIC severaltimes until the blank page is displayed, then press and hold the RESET button for two seconds. 2-11

Resynchronizing
Your
Transmitter
Your
RFA
system uses
a continually changing code for
increased
security.
Normally,the receiver in your
vehicle
will keep track of this changing code.
,If
your
vehicle does not
respondto your transmitter, do the
following to determine
what’s wrong:
1.
Get closer to the
vehicle and try pressing a button
again. Your
battery
may be low (If
so,
see “Battery
Replacement”
in
the
Index).
2.
While standing close to your vehicle, press the
LOCK
and
UNLOCK
buttons on your transmitter at
the same time and hold
for
seven seconds. This will
attempt to resynchronize
the
security code in your
RFA
key fob transmitter.
3.
When
resynchronization is achieved, the horn
will chirp.
Loss
of synchronization will occur after transmitter
battery
replacement or disconnection of the
vehicle’s
battery.
If
attempts to resynchronize your transmitter to the
vehicle are not
successful,
you
may
need
to
match the
transmitter
to
the
vehicle.
Matching
Transmitter(s) To
Your
Vehicle
Each key fob 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 remaining
transmitters with you when you go to
yourdealer. When
the dealer matches the replacement transmitter to
your
vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also
be
matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new
transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only three transmitters
matched to
it.
To
match transmitters to your vehicle:
1.
Turn the ignition key to the
ON
position.
2.
Clear any warning messages on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) by pressing the
RESET button.
3.
Press the OPTIONS button on the
DIC
several
times
until the blank page is displayed, then press and hold
the RESET button for two seconds.
