Step-by-Step Programming Instructions:

Programming with a Recognized Chip Key (Key Vehicles Only):

To program a new key:
1. Insert the original, already programmed key into the ignition and turn it to the ON/RUN position.
2. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF, and then remove it.
3. Insert the new key to be programmed and turn it to the ON/RUN position within five seconds. The security light will turn off once the key has been programmed.
4. Repeat Steps 1–3 if you need to program additional keys.

Programming without a Recognized Chip Key (Key Vehicles Only):

To program a new key to the vehicle when a recognized key is not available, Canadian regulations require owners to see their dealer. If there are no currently recognized keys available, follow this procedure to program the first key. This process will take approximately 30 minutes to complete for the first key. The vehicle must be off, and all the keys you wish to program must be with you.
1. Insert the new vehicle key into the ignition.
2. Turn it to ON/RUN. The security light will illuminate.
3. Wait for 10 minutes until the security light turns off.
4. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.
5. Repeat Steps 2–4 two more times. After the third time, turn to ON/RUN; the key is learned, and all previously known keys will no longer work with the vehicle. Additional keys can be programmed using the procedure in “Programming with a Recognized Chip Key.”

Using this procedure, if you have a programmed remote and want to add another (Smart Key System Only):
1. Ensure the vehicle is off.
2. Have the recognized transmitter and the new, unrecognized transmitter(s) with you.
3. Insert the key into the key lock cylinder located on the outside of the driver’s door.
4. Turn the key to the unlock position five times within five seconds.
5. The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays Ready to Learn Electronic key #2, 3, or 4.
6. Place the new remote into the transmitter pocket with the buttons facing the front of the vehicle (inside the center console between the driver and front passenger seats).
7. A beep sounds once the remote is programmed. The DIC displays Ready to Learn Electronic Key #3 or 4, or Maximum # Electronic Keys Learned.
8. Press the ignition control knob to exit programming mode.
9. Remove the remote from the transmitter pocket and press unlock on the remote two times.
10. To program additional remotes, repeat Steps 6 through 9.

Using this procedure, if you have no working remotes (Smart Key System Only):
1. Ensure the vehicle is off.
2. Place the new remote into the transmitter pocket with the buttons facing the front of the vehicle (inside the center console between the driver and front passenger seats).
3. Insert the key into the key lock cylinder located on the outside of the driver’s door.
4. Turn the key to the unlock position five times within five seconds.
5. The DIC displays Ready to Learn Keys.
6. Press the ignition switch in.
7. The DIC reads Learn Delay Active Wait XX Min and counts down to zero.
8. The DIC displays Press Start Control To Learn Keys again.
9. Press the ignition switch in again.
10. Repeat Steps 7, 8, and 9.
11. The DIC reads Learn Delay Active Wait XX Min and counts down to zero.
12. A beep sounds, and the DIC reads Ready To Learn Electronic Key # X. All previously known remote programming has been erased.
13. A beep sounds once programming is complete. The DIC displays Ready To Learn Electronic Key #2.
14. To program additional remotes, insert each transmitter into the pocket until a beep is heard, and the DIC advances to the next electronic key number. Up to four remotes can be programmed. The DIC displays Maximum # Electronic Keys Learned and exits the programming mode.
