Saturn 2005 Vue User Manual

At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote keyless entry system. If the
transmitter does not work or if you have to stand closer
to your vehicle for the transmitter to work, try this:
• Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during
rainy or snowy weather.
• Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may
be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the
left or right, hold the transmitter higher, and
try again.
• Check to determine if battery replacement or
resynchronization is necessary. See “Battery
Replacement” and “Resynchronization” under
Remote Keyless Entry System Operation on
page 2-4.
• If you are still having trouble, see your Saturn
retailer or authorized service provider for service.
Remote Keyless Entry System
Operation
With this feature, you can lock and unlock the doors
from about 32 feet (10 m) away using the remote
keyless entry transmitter supplied with your vehicle.
Q(Lock): Press this
button on the remote
keyless entry transmitter to
lock the doors. This also
arms the theft-deterrent

following for information on
arming the theft-deterrent

Your vehicle can be programmed so that the parking
lamps or Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) will flash
and/or the horn will sound when you lock the doors with

for more information on programming this feature.
