Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your Catera has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal. However, there are ways you can help.
Key in the Ignition
If you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
-- so
don’t do it.
When you park your Catera and open the driver’s door,
you’ll hear a chime 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.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out of sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
Parking Lots
If you park in a lot where someone will be watching
your vehicle, it’s best to lock it
up and take your keys.
But what if you have to leave your key? What if you
have to leave something valuable in your vehicle?
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk

The glove box is located in front of the passenger’s seat.
To lock the glove box door, insert the key into the lock
cylinder and turn it clockwise. Turn
the key
counterclockwise to unlock the door.
Note that the glove box is

to keep snack items cool while traveling. Use the slide
control inside
of the glove box to turn the air conditioning
on and off. Moving the slide control over the small hole
turns the air conditioning off and moving the control away
from the hole turns the air conditioning on.
Map Pockets
The mapktorage pockets are located on each front
door as well as on the passenger’s and driver’s front
seatbacks. Also located on the driver’s door map pocket
is a coin holder. The
front storage area comes with a small storage bin
and a dual cupholder that unfolds for use.
