If you lose a transmitter or want to pur-
chase additional transmitters (up to four
can be programmed), you should re-pro-
gram all of your transmitters for security
reasons. It is recommended that you have
your dealer program all of your transmit-

ters into your system.
Programming the transmitters
The keyless entry system is equipped with
a special code learning feature that allows
you to program new transmitter codes into
the system or to delete old ones. The sys-
tem can learn up to four unique transmitter
codes. The four transmitter codes may be
the same or different.
