Replacing coded keys  can be very  costly. Store an extra  programmed key
away from the  vehicle in a  safe place to help  prevent any
inconveniences. Please visit  an authorized dealer  to purchase additional
spare or replacement  keys.
Programming spare keys
You can program  your own coded  keys to your vehicle.
Tips:
A maximum of  eight keys can  be coded to your  vehicle.
Only use Securilock௢   keys.
You must have  two previously programmed  coded keys (keys that
already operate your  vehicle’s engine) and  the new unprogrammed
key(s) readily accessible.
If two previously  programmed coded keys  are not available, you  must
take your vehicle  to your dealer  to have the spare  key(s)
programmed.
Please read and  understand the
entire procedure before  you begin.
