vehicle’s engine and/or will not operate the remote entry features. The
theft indicator light may flash on and off. Wait 20 seconds and you may
repeat Steps 1 through 8. If failure repeats, bring your vehicle to your
authorized dealer to have the new key(s) programmed.

PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

or the remote entry transmitter portion of your IKT.
• the ignition is turned on with an invalid SecuriLock௡ key or IKT.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensure ALL integrated keyhead transmitters are brought to an
authorized dealer to aid in troubleshooting.
