When you use the remote entry UNLOCK, TRUNK or PANIC buttons, the illuminated entry system turns on the interior lights for 25 seconds. You can turn these lights off with the LOCK button or by turning the ignition to the RUN position.

With this feature, each of the first two transmitters programmed will recall a different seat position. Pressing the transmitter UNLOCK button once will unlock the driver's door and move the seat to its corresponding memory seat/mirrors position, just as if you had pressed the memory button in the vehicle. u Second Transmitter Programmed - Recall u Third Transmitter Programmed - NO Recall/Memory Seat/Mirrors/Steering Column (allows only three positions) You may change seat/mirrors positions at any time. Once programmed, Transmitter #1 will always move the seat/mirrors/steering column to position #1. The feature is turned on at the factory for your convenience. You can deactivate the system by using the OFF button or switching the key fob switch to OFF. 124
