Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal.
Universal Theft-Deterrent
If your vehicle has this feature, it has a theft-deterrent
alarm system. With this system, the SECURITY light will
flash
as you open the door if your ignition is in OFF.
SECURITY
This light on the instrument
panei cluster reminds
you
to activate the
theft-deterrent system when leaving your vehicle.
To activate the system, do the following:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch while
the door is open, or use the remote keyless entry
transmitter
(if equipped). The SECURITY light
should come on and stay on.
3. Close all doors. The SECURITY light should go off
after about 30 seconds and the system will then be
armed.
If the SECURITY light comes on for one minute and
then shuts
off while the ignition is on, the security
system has detected a problem. See your dealer for
service.
If a door is opened without the key or remote keyless
entry transmitter, or
if the door key cylinders are
damaged, the alarm will go
off. The exterior lamps will
flash and the horn will sound for
30 seconds, then will go
off in order to save battery power.
Remember, the theft-deterrent system won’t activate
if
YQL! !ock the doors with a key or manual door lock.
It activates only
if you use a power door lock switch
while the door is open, or the remote keyless entry
transmitter.
Avoid setting
off the alarm by accident.
Always unlock a door with a key, or use the remote
keyless entry transmitter. Unlocking a door any
other way will set
off the alarm.
If you set off the alarm by accident, unlock the driver’s
door with your key. You can also turn
off the alarm
by pressing the button with the unlock symbol on the
remote keyless entry transmitter. The alarm won’t stop
if
you try to uniock a door any other Way.

Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with the
power door lock switch while the door is open, or
with the remote keyless entry transmitter.
3. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and wait for
the SECURITY light to go out.
4. Then, reach in through the window, unlock the door
with the manual door lock and open the door. This
should set
off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to
see
if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown.
To replace the fuse, see
Fuses and Circuit Breakers on
page 5-92.
If the alarm does not sound, or the exterior lamps do
not flash, see your dealer.
Content Theft-Deterrent
If your vehicle has this option, it has a content
theft-deterrent alarm system.
A light located in your Twilight Sentinel@ cluster, above
the fog lamp button, will begin to flash
30 seconds
after the vehicle ignition is turned
off to let you know the
system has been armed.
While armed, the doors will not unlock with the power
door lock switch. Once armed,
the alarm will go
off if someone tries to
enter the vehicle without using the remote keyless entry
transmitter or a key, breaks a window, tries to damage
the vehicle or turns the ignition to
ON. If any of these do
occur, the horn will sound and the parking lamps will
flash for up to two minutes.
