Keys, Doors, and Windows If at least one RKE transmitter has been removed from the interior of the vehicle, the doors will lock after eight seconds. Temporarily disable the locking feature by pressing and holding the power door switch for several seconds with a door open. Passive locking will then remain disabled until the door switch is pressed, or until the vehicle is turned on. To customize whether the doors automatically lock when exiting the vehicle, see "Remote Locking, Unlocking, Starting" under Vehicle Personalization. Keyless Hatch Opening Press the button on the underside of the hatch and lift up to open if the RKE transmitter is within range and the doors are locked. If the doors are unlocked, the transmitter is not required to open the hatch. 2-5 Programming Transmitters to the Vehicle Only RKE transmitters programmed to this vehicle will work. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased and programmed through your dealer. When the replacement transmitter is programmed to this vehicle, all remaining transmitters must also be reprogrammed. Any lost or stolen transmitters will no longer work once the new transmitter is programmed. Each vehicle can have up to five transmitters matched to it. Programming with a Recognized Transmitter A new transmitter can be programmed to the vehicle when there is one recognized transmitter. For vehicles sold in Canada, two recognized transmitters are required to program a new transmitter. To program, the vehicle must be off and all of the transmitters, both currently recognized and new, must be in the vehicle. 1. Place the recognized transmitter(s) in the cupholder. 2. Insert the vehicle key of the new transmitter into the key lock cylinder on the outside of the driver door and turn the key to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays READY FOR REMOTE #2, 3, 4 OR 5.
