The security system will give the following alarm indications when trig-
gered: The turn signal lights will flash and the horn will sound intermit-
tently. In addition, the starter motor will not operate. The alarm automatically resets after 30 seconds; however, the
alarm will reactivate if the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarmwill continue for six times if any sensor continues to be activated.
