Programming with a Recognized Transmitter (Keyless Access Vehicles Only)
A new transmitter can be programmed to the vehicle when there is one recognized transmitter. To program, the vehicle must be off and all of the transmitters, both currently recognized and new, must be with you.
1. Place the recognized transmitter(s) near you.
2. Insert the vehicle key of the new transmitter into the key lock cylinder located on the outside of the driver door and turn the key to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds.

3. Place the new transmitter into the transmitter pocket with the buttons facing up. The transmitter pocket is located inside the center console cupholder. The cupholder liner will need to be removed to access the transmitter pocket. Use your finger or a tool in the notch at the rear of the cupholders to remove the liner. See Cupholders .
4. Press the ignition. When the transmitter is learned, the DIC will show that it is ready to program the next transmitter.
