atchin- - n-.smitter(s) To Your Vehicle Each key chain 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 retailer. Remember to bring any remaining transmitters with you when you go to your retailer. When the retailer matches the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters must also be matched. Once the new transmitter is coded, the lost transmitter will not unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle can have only four transmitters matched to it. 1tt n acement Under-normal use, the battery in your key chain transmitter should last about twoyears. If you have the optional power sliding door (see "Power Sliding Door" later in this section), your remote transmitter will have a third button that has a van symbol on it. Press it to open or close the sliding door. If the sliding door is locked, first press the unlock symbol twice to unlock all doors, then press the van symbol to open the sliding door. You can operate the power sliding door with the remote transmitter only when the power sliding door ON/OFF switch on the overhead console is in the ON position. You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won't work at the normal range in any location. If you have to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works, it's probably time to change the battery.
