Locking and Unlocking

The RKE transmitter contains 4 buttons to operate the system.

Press the LOCK button once to activate the central locking system and arm the alarm system (if equipped).

Press the LOCK button twice within 3 seconds and a horn tone is heard along with a flash of the direction indicators indicating that the doors are locked. If any of the doors are ajar, the horn sounds twice.

Press the UNLOCK button once to unlock the driver door and disarm the alarm system (if equipped).

Press the UNLOCK button twice within 3 seconds to unlock the remaining doors.

Press the LIFTGATE RELEASE button once to release the liftgate/luggage compartment lid. This function works only if the ignition is in the OFF or ACC position or the vehicle speed is less than 7 km/h (4 mph).

Press the PANIC ALARM button to turn on the personal alarm.

Press the PANIC ALARM button a second time to turn off the personal alarm. The personal alarm also turns off if the ignition switch is turned to the ON or RUN position, or after 2 minutes of operation.

With the key in the OFF/ACC positions, pressing the RKE transmitter LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for a minimum of 4 seconds toggles the unlocking mode from 2-stage unlocking to central unlocking. Pressing both buttons again for 4 seconds toggles back to 2-stage unlocking mode. Mode change is indicated by 2 flashes of the parking lamps.
