Operation
The driver’s door will unlock automatically when
UNLOCK is pressed. If UNLOCK is pressed again
within five seconds, the passenger’s doors will also
unlock. All doors will lock when LOCK is pressed.
The tailgate or panel doors will unlock when the REAR
2X button is pressed twice within five seconds, as long
as the ignition is turned to OFF or the transmission is in
PARK (P).
The system will turn on the interior lamps for about
40 seconds, when you unlock the doors, tailgate or panel
doors. The interior lamps will go off when you lock the
doors using the keyless entry transmitter or a power
door lock switch. The interior lamps will also go off if
the ignition is turned to RUN.
Operating the keyless entry transmitter may interact
with the theft
-deterrent system. See “Theft-Deterrent
System” in the Index.
Alarm/Panic Mode
The theft
-deterrent system provides a fourth button on
your transmitter. This button is the alarm/panic button.
If you are involved in a panic situation, press this button
and your vehicle’s horn will sound and the headlamps
will flash. This will draw needed attention to you and
your vehicle. To turn this feature off, either push the
panic button again or turn the ignition to RUN. The
alarm will stop by itself after two minutes. This feature
will not work if your ignition is on or if the transmitter
is 30 feet (9 m) or more away from your vehicle.
Transmitter Verification
This feature provides feedback to the holder of the
keyless entry transmitter that a command has been
received by the keyless entry receiver. The headlamps
and parking lamps will flash on every lock and unlock
command and the horn will sound only if the LOCK
button is pressed twice within five seconds. This allows
for silent operation of locking and unlocking, unless a
confirming horn chirp is desired. Other options may be
selected for this feature (see “Feature Customization” in
the Index).
