To deter the vehicle theft, the system is
designed to give an alarm and keep the
engine from being started if any of the
side doors, back door or hood is forci-
bly unlocked or the battery terminal is
disconnected and then reconnected
when the vehicle is locked.
The alarm blows the horn intermittently
and flashes the headlights, tail lights andother exterior lights. The engine cannot
be started because the starter circuit will be cut.SETTING THE SYSTEM
1. Turn the ignition key to the LOCKº
position and remove it.
2. Have all passengers get out of the ve- hicle.
3. Close and lock all the side doors, back
door and hood.
The indicator light will come on when all
the side doors, back door and hood are
closed and locked.
As the side doors are locked, the system
will give you a preparation time of 30 sec-
onds before the setting, during which the
side doors, back door and hood may be
opened to prepare for the setting. Be careful not to use the key when open-
ing either side door. This will cancel the system.
4. After making sure the indicator light
starts fl
ashing, you may leave the vehicle.
The system will automatically be set after the preparation time passes. The indica-
tor light will flash to show the system is
set. If any of the side doors, back door or
hood is open at that time, the setting is in-
terrupted until it is closed and locked. Never leave anyone in the vehicle when you set the system, because unlocking
from the inside will activate the system. WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET Activating the system
The system will give the alarm and cut the
starter circuit under the following condi- tions: If any of the side doors, back door or
hood is unlocked without using the
key.
If the battery terminal is disconnectedand then reconnected
After one minute, the alarm will automati-
cally stop with the starter circuit cut kept on.
