To match the transmitter:

1. Scroll, using the SEEK up or down arrows, until FOB PROG appears on the display.
2. Press the PREV or NEXT button to enter the submenu. The current selection will have an asterisk next to it. BEGIN will be displayed.
3. Press the DISP button to start programming. When the message PUSH FOG flashes, press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the first transmitter at the same time for 15 seconds. A chime will be heard to verify the transmitter is learned.

The mode you selected is now set. You can either exit the programming mode by following the instructions later in this section or program the next feature available on your vehicle.
