2-6 Keys, Doors, and Windows Programming without a Recognized Transmitter Non-Canadian (U.S.) owners are permitted to program a new transmitter to their vehicle when a recognized transmitter is not available. The Canadian regulations require that Canadian owners see their dealer for programming new transmitters when two recognized transmitters are not available. If there are no currently recognized transmitters available, follow this procedure to program up to five transmitters. This procedure will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. The vehicle must be off and all of the transmitters must be in the vehicle. 1. Insert the vehicle key of the 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 REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT. 2. Wait for 10 minutes until the DIC displays PRESS START BUTTON TO LEARN and then press the POWER O button on the center stack. The DIC display will again show REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT. 3. Repeat Step 2 two more times. After the third time, all previously known transmitters will no longer work with the vehicle. Remaining transmitters can be programmed during the next steps. The DIC display should now show READY FOR REMOTE #1. 3. Remove the rubber mat in the instrument panel storage. Extend the key blade on the new transmitter and insert the key blade into the transmitter slot. 4. Press and hold the POWER O button on the center stack for two seconds. When the transmitter is programmed, the DIC will show that it is ready to program the next transmitter. 5. Remove the transmitter from the transmitter slot and press K on the transmitter. To program additional transmitters, repeat Steps 3-5. When all additional transmitters are programmed, press and hold the POWER O button for 10 seconds to exit programming mode.
