The procedure is in the owner's manual but here you go:

Programming with a Recognized
Transmitter
A new transmitter can be programmed to the vehicle
when there is one recognized transmitter. For vehicles
sold in Canada, two recognized transmitters are
required to program a new transmitter.
1. The vehicle must be off.
2. Both the recognized and new transmitters must be
with you.
3. Insert the vehicle key into the key cylinder located
above the license plate.
4. Open the hatch/trunk.
5. Turn the key five times within five seconds.
6. The DIC displays READY FOR FOB #2, 3 or 4.
7. Place the new transmitter in the glove box
transmitter pocket with the buttons facing the
passenger side.
8. A beep sounds once programming in complete.
The DIC displays READY FOR #3 or 4,
or MAXIMUM NUMBER OF FOBS LEARNED.
9. To program additional transmitters, repeat Step 7.
Press Acc. on the ignition switch if programming is
complete.
10. Press unlock on each newly programmed transmitter to
complete the process.

Oh, OK! It might be easier and cheaper to have the dealer make you a new key. You'll need one when & if your battery ever dies.


Method 1 - Adding or replacing a Key Fob(Known Key Fob Available)

This procedure will add or replace key fobs. To perform this procedure you must have the following: a fob already programmed to the module, a replacement key fob, and a scan tool.

Important: This procedure is not available when the maximum number of fobs (4) have been programmed. If 4 key fobs are programmed to this RCDLR and this method is attempted, the driver information center (DIC) will display MAX FOBS LEARNED and the programming procedure will exit. Method 2 or 3 must be used in this instance.

1. Place a known fob in the cup holder.
2. Turn the vehicle in RUN, place the transmission in PARK (A/T) or REVERSE (M/T) and shut the vehicle OFF.
3. Using the scan tool access the following:
• Vehicle Control Systems

• Module Setup

• Remote Control Door Lock Receiver

• Program Key Fobs

4. Select the fob position you wish to program:

Important: Selecting Invalidate All Fobs will erase any known fobs and require all fobs to be relearned to the vehicle.


• Invalidate All Fobs (Not used in this method)

• Program Fob 1

• Program Fob 2

• Program Fob 3

• Program Fob 4

5. With the fob position selected, press the PROGRAM button on the scan tool. The DIC should display: READY FOR FOB X (X = fob 1, 2, 3 or 4, depending on the selected position)
⇒ If the DIC displays: OFF/ACC TO LEARN, refer to Method 2.

6. Place the replacement key fob in the glove box fob pocket with the buttons facing right.
7. A beep will occur indicating the fob has been programmed. If the Invalidate All Fobs selection was chosen the DIC will continue to the next available key fob slot until all slots are programmed or the DONE soft key is pressed on the scan tool to exit programming. If any other selection was chosen and additional fobs are needed to be programmed, repeat steps 3-5.
Important: Failure to press the UNLOCK button of each key fob will result in that fob being inoperative. Pressing the UNLOCK button finishes the programming sequence and is require to ensure transmitter operation.

8. Remove previously learned fobs from vehicle. Press the UNLOCK button of each newly learned key fob to finalize the programming and confirm system operation.




Method 2 - Replacing Key Fobs (No Known Key Fob Available)

This procedure will erase all known key fobs. The procedure will then program a single or multiple key fobs. It requires that you have a replacement key fob and a scan tool. Any known fobs should be removed from the vicinity of the vehicle.

Important: All previously programmed key fobs will be erased upon completion of the 30-minute programming procedure. The order in which the key fobs are programmed will determine its numbering position within the RCDLR memory. The first key fob programmed will be key fob #1, and the second key fob programmed will be key fob #2. The number stamped on the key fob case is for reference only: #2 can be programmed as #1.

Do not place any known key fobs in the vicinity of the vehicle when programming with Method 2. If the RCDLR recognizes a known key fob during Method 2 programming, the programming mode will resort to Method 1.

1. Using the scan tool access the following:
• Vehicle Control Systems

• Module Setup

• Remote Control Door Lock Receiver

• Program Key Fobs

2. Select Invalidate All Fobs. Press enter on the Tech 2. The Tech 2 will display: FOLLOW SI INSTRUCTIONS. Press enter on the Tech 2 to continue, then press the PROGRAM button. The DIC will display: OFF/ACC TO LEARN.
3. Press the OFF/ACC portion of the ignition button.
4. The DIC will display a message: WAIT 10 MINUTES. It will then count down from 10 to 0, one minute at a time.
5. When the timer reaches 0, the DIC will display OFF/ACC TO LEARN. Repeat steps 3-5 two more times, for a total of 30 minutes. The repeating of steps 3-5 must be done within 3 minutes of the timer reaching zero to prevent the exiting of learn mode. On the second and third sequence, the DIC will briefly display NO FOB DETECTED before transitioning to the timer. This is normal.
6. At the end of the 30 minutes, a beep will occur and the DIC will display: READY FOR FOB 1. At this time all previously known key fobs have been erased.
7. Place the replacement key fob in the glove box fob pocket with the buttons facing right.
8. A beep will occur indicating the fob has been programmed.
9. Additional key fobs can be programmed by removing fob 1 from the pocket and inserting fob 2. If desired, up to 4 fobs can be programmed. Once 4 fobs have been learned, the DIC will display a message: MAX FOBS LEARNED, and automatically exit the program mode.
10. If learning less than 4 key fobs, press the OFF/ACC portion of the ignition button to exit the program mode.
Important: Failure to press the UNLOCK button of each key fob will result in that fob being inoperative. Pressing the UNLOCK button finishes the programming sequence and is require to ensure transmitter operation.

11. Press the UNLOCK button of each key fob to finalize the programming and confirm system operation.
