The theft warning system provides audio
and visual alarm signals if parts of the
vehicle are disturbed.
How to activate the theft warning
system
1. Close all windows.
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Close all doors and the hood. Lock all
doors by pressing the
button on the
multi-remote controller. At this time, the
parking lights blink and the horn chirps to
indicate all doors are locked.The system can be activated even if the
windows are open.
4. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator
light, located under the hazard warning
switch, illuminates.
cThe SECURITY light stays on for about
30 seconds and then begins to flash
once every three seconds. The system is
now activated.
The theft warning system is NOT activated if
one of the following occurs:
cA door is unlocked or opened, the hood is
opened, or the ignition key is turned to
the ACC or ON position during the 30
seconds in which the SECURITY light
stays on.
cThe SECURITY light blinks at a steady
1/2 second on - 1/2 second off rate
because a door or the hood is open and
the key is not in the ACC or ON position.
When the ignition key is turned to the
ACC or ON position, the SECURITY light
turns off.
Theft warning system operation
The theft warning system emits the follow-
ing alarm:
cThe headlights and tail lights flash and
the horn sounds intermittently. In addi-
tion, the starter motor does not operate.

reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with

using the key or the multi-remote control-
ler. This includes unlocking the doors
with the inside door lock switch.

cthe ignition is placed into the ACC, ON,
or START position without the key in the
