check that the hood is closed and
securely locked.

release handle to unlock the hood.

Theft-Deterrent Systemí
The theft-deterrent system is designed to
prevent your vehicle or its contents from
being stolen when both doors, hood, and
trunk lid are locked.
If forcible entry is attempted, the system
sounds the horn and flashes the hazard
warning lights.
NOTE
lThe theft-deterrent system operates
with the key or the keyless entry
system transmitter.
l(With advanced key)
The theft-deterrent system can also
be operated using a request switch or
the start knob.
The system operates only when the
driver is in the vehicle or within
operational range while the advanced
key is being carried.
lThe system will not function unless
it is properly armed. To properly
secure the vehicle, always make sure
both windows are completely closed
and both doors and the trunk lid are
locked before leaving the vehicle.
Remember to take your key and
transmitter.

Inspect fluid level in the washer fluid
reservoir; add fluid if necessary.
Use plain water if washer fluid is
unavailable.
But use only washer fluid in cold weather
to prevent it from freezing.
Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and hood hinges and locks, should
be lubricated each time the engine oil is
changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on
locks during cold weather.
Make sure the hood's secondary latch
keeps the hood from opening when the
primary latch is released.
