Vehicle Security
This vehicle has theft-deterrent
features; however, they do not make
the vehicle impossible to steal.
Vehicle Alarm System
This vehicle may have an anti-theft
alarm system.
The security light, located in the
instrument panel cluster, comes on
when the system is arming.
Arming the System
To arm the system, do one of the
following:
1. Close all of the windows and
doors, then lock the doors with
the RKE transmitter.
2. Lock the vehicle using the front
power door lock switches on the
doors when the door is open.
The alarm will arm after
30 seconds. Pressing
Q on the
RKE transmitter a second time
will bypass the 30-second delay
and immediately arm the
system.
If a locked door or trunk is opened
without using the key in the driver
door key cylinder or the RKE
transmitter, a 10-second pre-alarm
will occur. The horn will chirp and
the lights will flash. If the key is not
placed in the ignition and turned to
STARTor the door is not unlocked
by pressing
K on the RKE
transmitter during the 10-second
pre-alarm, the alarm will go off. The
headlamps will flash and the horn
will sound for about 30 seconds,
then will turn off to save the battery
power.
The theft-deterrent system will not
activate if the doors are locked with
the key or the manual door lock.
It activates only if the power door
lock switch is used while the door is
open, or with the RKE transmitter.
To avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:
.
Lock the vehicle with the door
key after the doors are closed.
.
Always unlock a door with the
RKE transmitter or by using the
key in the driver door cylinder.
Unlocking a door any other way
will set off the alarm.
Turn off the alarm by pressing
K on
the RKE transmitter.
Disarming the System
To disarm the system, either unlock
the doors using the transmitter,
or start the vehicle with a
recognized transmitter in the
vehicle.
