SECURITY
If the ignition is off and
either door is open, the
SECURITY light will flash,
reminding
you to activate
the system (the light will
also flash
if the battery
has been disconnected and reconnected)
.
To arm the system, do the following:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door using the power door lock or the RKE
system. The SECURITY light should come on and
stay on.
3. Close both doors. The SECURITY light should go
off within approximately 30 seconds.
The horn will sound and the lamps will flash for about
30 seconds when the door or trunk is opened without the
key or RKE system. The horn also sounds if the locks
are damaged.
Remember, the theft-deterrent system won’t activate
if
you lock the doors with a key or use the manual door
lock. It activates only if you use a power door lock
switch
or the RKE system.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident:
8 The vehicle should be locked with the door key or
the manual door lock switch after the doors are
closed if you don’t want to activate the
theft-deterrent system.
Always unlock
a door with a key or use the RKE
system. (Pressing the unlock button on the RKE
transmitter disables the theft-deterrent system.)
Unlocking a door any other way will activate the
alarm. Turning the ignition key to
RUN without
disarming the theft-deterrent system will also
activate the alarm.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock either door
with your key. You can also turn off the alarm by using
the unlock button
of the RKE system. The alarm won’t
stop if you
try to unlock a door any other way.
