For vehicles not equipped with the EVIC, perform the
following steps:
1. Push and hold the UNLOCK button on a pro-
grammed RKE transmitter for at least 4 seconds but
no longer than 10 seconds. Then, push and hold the
LOCK button while still holding the UNLOCK
button.
2. Release both buttons at the same time.
3. Test the feature while outside of the vehicle by
pushing the LOCK/UNLOCK buttons on the RKE
transmitter with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position and the key removed.
4. Repeat these steps if you want to return this feature
to its previous setting.
NOTE: Pushing the LOCK button on the RKE transmitter
while you are in the vehicle will activate the Vehicle
Security Alarm. Opening a door with the Vehicle Security
Alarm activated will cause the alarm to sound. Push the
UNLOCK button to deactivate the Vehicle Security
Alarm.
Using The Panic Alarm
To turn the Panic Alarm feature ON or OFF, push and
hold the PANIC button on the RKE transmitter for at
least one second and release. When the Panic Alarm is on,
the headlights and park lights will flash, the horn will
pulse on and off, and the interior lights will turn on.
The Panic Alarm will stay on for three minutes unless
you turn it off by pushing the PANIC button a second
time or if the vehicle speed is 5 mph (8 km/h) or greater.
