Transmitter Battery Service

The recommended replacement battery is one CR2032
battery.

NOTE:

Do not touch the battery terminals that are on

the back housing or the printed circuit board.

1. With the transmitter buttons facing down, remove the
small screw, and separate the two halves of the transmit-
ter. Make sure not to damage the rubber gasket during
removal.

2. Remove and replace the battery. Avoid touching the
new battery with your fingers. Skin oils may cause
battery deterioration. If you touch a battery, clean it with
rubbing alcohol.

3. To reassemble the transmitter case, join the two halves
of the case together. Install and tighten the screw until
snug. Make sure there is an even “gap” between the two
halves. Test transmitter operation.

VEHICLE THEFT ALARM

The Vehicle Theft Alarm system monitors the vehicle
doors for unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for
unauthorized operation. If something triggers the alarm,
the system will prevent the vehicle from starting and
provide the following audible and visual signals: the
horn will pulse; the headlights will flash; the park lights
will flash; and the Vehicle Theft Alarm Indicator light in
the instrument cluster will flash.

If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to
disarm it, the system will turn off the horn after 29
seconds, turn off all of the visual signals after 31 seconds,
and then the system will rearm itself.
