Programming with Two Programmed Remotes: Use this method when two remotes are already programmed to the vehicle. This allows you to add new remotes through the onboard system.

  • Step 1: Ensure the vehicle is turned off and securely parked.
  • Step 2: Place both programmed remotes in the front cupholder.
  • Step 3: On the exterior driver’s door handle, remove the cap covering the key lock cylinder.
  • Step 4: Insert the emergency key from the new remote into the lock.
  • Step 5: Turn the key to the unlock position (counterclockwise) five times within 10 seconds.
  • Step 6: The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display: “READY FOR REMOTE #2,” “#3,” “#4,” or “#5.”
  • Step 7: Place the new remote into the front cupholder (or the designated remote pocket if equipped).
  • Step 8: Press the ENGINE START/STOP button once.
  • Step 9: Wait for the DIC to confirm that the new remote has been learned.
  • Step 10: Remove the remote from the pocket and press the UNLOCK button.
  • Step 11: To program more remotes, repeat Steps 7 through 10 for each additional remote.
  • Step 12: When finished, press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
  • Step 13: Reinsert the emergency key into the remote.

Programming Without Two Programmed Remotes: Use this method when fewer than two recognized remotes are available. This process enables you to program up to eight remotes and takes about 30 minutes. This feature may not be available in all regions.

  • Step 1: Confirm the vehicle is turned off and that all remotes are with you.
  • Step 2: Remove the cap from the driver’s exterior door lock cylinder.
  • Step 3: Insert the emergency key into the lock and turn it to the unlock position (counterclockwise) five times within 10 seconds.
  • Step 4: The DIC will display: “REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.”
  • Step 5: Wait approximately 10 minutes without interacting with the vehicle.
  • Step 6: When prompted, press the ENGINE START/STOP button once.
  • Step 7: The DIC will again display: “REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.”
  • Step 8: Repeat Steps 5 through 7 two more times, completing three 10-minute cycles.
  • Step 9: After the third cycle, the DIC will display: “READY FOR REMOTE #1.”
  • Step 10: Place the first new remote into the remote pocket inside the center armrest storage compartment.
  • Step 11: Press the ENGINE START/STOP button once.
  • Step 12: Wait for the DIC to confirm the remote has been successfully programmed.
  • Step 13: Remove the remote and press UNLOCK to finalize registration.
  • Step 14: Repeat Steps 10 through 13 for each additional remote.
  • Step 15: When all remotes have been added, press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
