a number of the€t deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make
it
impossible to steal. However, there are ways y6U can
help.
Kev in t~he ignition: If you walk away from your
vehicle with the keys inside, it's an easy'target for joy%..
riders or professional thieves - so don't do it. wyqw. .:: %3: F: ;-;.::. *.'%(:.
When you park your Buick and open'the diiver 's'door,
you'll hear a tone reminding you'to remove your key
from the ignition and take it with you.' Always
do this..
Your steering wheel will be locked, and
so will your
ignition and transmission. And remember to lock the
doors.
