Intelligent Access Key (IA key) (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with
two intelligent access keys which
operate the power locks and the
remote entry system. You have to

The IA key also contains a removable
mechanical key blade that can be
used to unlock the driver door. To
release the mechanical key blade,
press the release buttons on the edge
of the transmitter and remove the
key blade.
Your IA keys are programmed to
