8 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS

The double sided keys may be inserted into the locks

with either side up. The keys for your new vehicle are

enclosed in a plastic bag with a bar code label affixed to

the front. The bar code can be used to order duplicate

keys from your dealer or a locksmith. If you received

your keys without the bag, ask your dealer to give you

the number.

Key-In-Ignition Reminder

If you open the driver’s door when the key is in the

ignition lock, a continuous chime will sound to remind

you to remove the key.

CAUTION!

An unlocked vehicle is an invitation to thieves.

Always remove the key from the ignition and lock

all the doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.

SENTRY KEY — IF EQUIPPED

With this system, an electronically coded ignition key

sends a signal to the vehicle electronics. If the electronics

recognizes the signal, the vehicle will start and continue

to run. If the system does not recognize the signal, the

vehicle will start and run for 2 seconds, then shut off.

After six unsuccessful attempts at starting, the system

will shut down until the correct key is used.

NOTE:

The Sentry Key Immobilizer System is not

compatible with remote starting systems. Use of these

systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a

loss of security protection. Additional Sentry Keys or

Mobil Speed-pass™ devices held against or immediately

adjacent to the ignition key when starting the engine may

cause vehicle starting problems. If a problem occurs,

remove the Sentry Key from the key-ring and attempt to

start the vehicle again. Pagers, cell phones, walkman, etc.

will have no effect on this system.

The 9Security Light9will illuminate for about 3 seconds

when the ignition switch is first turned to the ON

position. If the vehicle electronics do not receive a valid

signal from the ignition key, the 9Security Light9will flash

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 9

continuously to signal that the vehicle has been immobi-

lized. If the 9Security Light9remains on during vehicle

operation, it indicates a fault in the system electronics. If

this option was ordered, all of the keys provided with

your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle

electronics.

Replacement Keys

NOTE:

Only keys that have been programmed to the

vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once

a Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it cannot

be programmed to any other vehicle.

At the time of purchase, the original owner is provided

with a four digit PIN number. This number is required

for dealer replacement of keys. Duplication of keys may

be performed at an authorized dealer or by using the

Customer Key Programming procedure. This procedure

consists of programming a blank key to the vehicle

electronics. A blank key is one which has never been

programmed and needs to be cut.

NOTE:

When having the Sentry Key System serviced,

bring all vehicle keys to the dealer.

Customer Key Programming

You can program new keys to the system if you have two

valid keys by doing the following:

1. Insert the first valid key into the ignition and turn the

ignition to the ON position for at least 3 seconds but no

longer than 15 seconds. Turn the ignition back to the OFF

position and remove the first key.

2. Insert the second valid key and switch the ignition to

the ON position within 15 seconds. After 10 seconds, a

chime will sound and the 9Security Light9will begin to

flash. Turn the ignition back to the OFF position and

remove the second key.

3. Insert a blank Sentry Key into the ignition and switch

the ignition to the ON position within 60 seconds of

having removed the second key. After 10 seconds, a

single chime will sound. The 9Security Light9will stop

flashing, then turn on for 3 seconds; then turn off.

The new Sentry Key has been programmed. Repeat this

process to program up to a total of 8 keys.
