Remote Keyless Entry System Operation - Pontiac 2006 Vibe Owner's Manual

At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry system. If the
transmitter does not work or if you have to stand closer
to your vehicle for the transmitter to work, try this:
•
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during
rainy or snowy weather.
•
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left or
right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.
•
Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See "Battery Replacement" under
Remote Keyless Entry System Operation on
page 2-4.
•
If you are still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.
Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
If your vehicle has this feature, you can lock and unlock
your doors from about 3 feet (1 m) up to 30 feet
(9 m) away using the remote keyless entry transmitter
supplied with your vehicle. The remote keyless entry
transmitter will look different if your vehicle was
purchased in Canada, however it will operate the same.

The turn signal lights will flash once to confirm that the
doors have locked. The remote keyless entry system
will not operate while the doors are open, the key is in
the ignition, or if the liftglass or hatch are not
completely closed and latched.
UNLOCK: Press this button once to unlock the
driver's door. The turn signal lights will flash twice and the
interior lamps will come on to confirm that the door has
unlocked. If the UNLOCK button is pressed again within
three seconds, all remaining doors will unlock. The
interior lamps will stay on for 15 seconds or until the
ignition is turned on.
HATCH/GLASS: Press and hold this button for
approximately one second to open the rear liftglass. If the
ignition key is in the ON position, the liftglass cannot be
opened by the HATCH/GLASS button on the transmitter.
LOCK: Press this button to
lock all of the doors.
