If enabled through the DIC, and it is dark enough outside, the vehicle's high-beam headlamps, parking lamps, and back-up lamps turn on each time K on the transmitter is pressed. These exterior lamps stay on for 20 seconds, or until a door is opened. See "EXT (Exterior) LIGHTS" under DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-53 for additional information. Pressing K on the RKE transmitter disarms the content theft-deterrent system. See Content Theft-Deterrent on page 2-18. 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/retailer. All transmitters need to be re-coded to match the new transmitter. The lost transmitter will no longer work after the new transmitters are re-coded. Each vehicle can have a maximum of four transmitters matched to it. V (Remote Trunk Release): Press and hold for about one second to open the trunk. The trunk can be opened with the transmitter when the vehicle speed is less than 2 mph (3 km/h) or when the ignition is off. L (Vehicle Locator/Panic Alarm): Press and release to locate your vehicle. The horn sounds three times and the headlamps and turn signals flash three times. Press and hold L for about three seconds to initiate the panic alarm. The horn sounds and the headlamps and turn signals flash for 30 seconds. Press L again to cancel the panic alarm. Battery Replacement Replace the battery if the KEY FOB BATT (Battery) LOW message displays in the DIC. See "KEY FOB BATT (Battery) LOW" under DIC Warnings and Messages on page 3-48 for additional information. Notice: When replacing the battery, do not touch any of the circuitry on the transmitter. Static from your body could damage the transmitter. 2-6
