The horn chirp feature for both the
Delayed Locking and Remote Keyless
Entry is turned “on” at the factory. To
disable horn chirp for both of these fea-
tures, simply follow the Horn Chirp —
How to Program procedure below:

Horn Chirp — How to Program

Close the doors, turn the ignition to the
ON position. Keep all doors closed
throughout this procedure.
1. Press and hold down either Power

Door Lock switch in the UNLOCK
position for 10 seconds. 

2. When the horn chirps, you can

release the switch. The horn chirp
feature has been disabled and will
remain in this mode unless changed
back (this does not affect the horn
activation with the Alarm button of the
Remote Keyless Entry). Re-enabling
the horn chirp feature can be done by
repeating the above procedure. 

RKE Battery Replacement

Under normal use, the battery in your
Remote Keyless Entry transmitter
should last about two years. You can tell
the battery is weak if the transmitter
won’t work at the normal range in any
location. If you have to get close to your
vehicle before the transmitter works, it’s
probably time to change the battery. 

See Section 2 of your Owner Manual. 

Remote Trunk Release Lockout

Your vehicle is equipped with a Remote
Trunk Release Lockout feature. When
the lockout is on, the remote trunk
release button on the driver’s door (or
on the Remote Keyless Entry transmit-
ter, if equipped) will not release the trunk
lid. However, the trunk lid can still be
opened with the key. 
The lockout mechanism is mounted to
the trunk lid latch on the inside of the
trunk lid. To turn the lockout off, slide the
switch all the way to the right (OFF). To
turn the lockout on, slide the switch all
the way to the left (ON). 

See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.  

Note:

When replacing the battery, use

one 

three-volt CR2032

or equivalent

battery. Use care not to touch any of the
transmitter circuitry. Static from your
body transferred to these surfaces may
damage the transmitter.
