3. Close all doors and the hood.
4. Push the
button on the multi-remote

ture'' later in this section for details.
5. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator
light comes on. The SECURITY light
glows for about 30 seconds and then
begins to flash once every three seconds.
The system is now activated. If, during
this 30-second time period, the door is
unlocked by the key or the multi-remotecontroller, or the ignition key is turned to
ACC or ON, the system will not activate.
If the key is turned slowly when locking
the door, the system may not activate.
Furthermore, if the key is turned exces-
sively to the unlock position, the system
may be deactivated when the key is re-
moved. If the indicator light fails to glow
for 30 seconds, unlock the door once
and lock it again.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will acti-
vate with all doors, hood and rear door
closed with the ignition key in the OFF
position.
