Security System
The theft-deterrent system is designed to
prevent your vehicle or its contents from
being stolen when all the doors, hood, and
trunk lid are locked.
If forcible entry is attempted, the system
sounds the horn and flashes the hazard
warning lights and headlights. It also
makes the starter inoperable.
The system won’t function unless it’s
properly armed. So when you leave the
vehicle, lock all the doors, close all the
windows, take your key, your transmitter,
and make sure the security indicator light
is flashing.
Operation
What turns it on:
•Forcing open a door, the hood or the
trunk lid.
•Unlocking the driver’s door with the
inside door-lock button or door-lock
switch.
•Opening a front or rear passenger’s
door , the hood or the trunk lid by
operating an inside door-lock button ,
the hood release handle or the trunk lid
release button.What it does:
•The horn sounds intermittently and the
hazard warning lights and headlights
flash.
•The starter is bypassed so that the
engine can’t be started.
•The alarm continues for about 3
minutes, then stops.
If the system is triggered again, the lights
and horn will activate and the starter will
not work until a door or the trunk lid is
unlocked with the key or with the
transmitter.
How to Arm the System
1. Remove the key from the ignition
switch.
2. Close the hood and the trunk lid. Then
close all doors and lock them from the
outside using the key in the door. If you
have the keyless entry system, press the
LOCK button on the transmitter.
3. The indicator light comes on for about
10 seconds. Then it flashes once every
3 seconds to indicate that the system is
fully armed. It continues to flash until
the theft-deterrent system is turned off.
