Saturn 2009 VUE Green Line Hybrid Owner's Manual page 75

When trying to start the vehicle if
the engine does not start and
the security light on the instrument
panel cluster comes on, there
may be a problem with your
theft-deterrent system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.
If the engine still does not start,
and the key appears to be not
damaged, wait about five minutes
and try another ignition key and
check the fuse. See Fuses
and Circuit Breakers on page 5-75.
If the engine still does not start
with the other key, the vehicle
needs service. If the vehicle does
start, the first key may be faulty.
See your dealer/retailer who
can service the PASS-Key
to have a new key made. In
an emergency, contact Roadside
Assistance. See Roadside
Assistance Program on page 7-5.
It is possible for the PASS-Key
decoder to "learn" the transponder
value of a new or replacement key.
Up to 10 keys may be programmed
for the vehicle. The following
procedure is for programming
additional keys only. If all the
currently programmed keys are
lost or do not operate, you must see
your dealer/retailer or a locksmith
who can service PASS-Key
to have keys made and programmed
to the system.
See your dealer/retailer or a
locksmith who can service
