The battery saver will shut off the interior lamps 10 minutes after the
ignition has been turned to the 1 (OFF/LOCK) position and a door is left
open, and in 30 minutes if the dome lamp control is left on and the
ignition has been turned to the 1 (OFF/LOCK) position. The battery
saver will also shut off the trunk lamps in 30 minutes if the trunk is left
open.
Perimeter lighting feature (if equipped)
The perimeter lighting feature illuminates the exterior of the vehicle in
order to provide better visibility to the user while he or she approaches
and enters the vehicle.
The perimeter lighting feature activates the head lamps, park lamps and
side marker lamps when:
•the user activates an unlock feature, using either the remote keyless
transmitter or the keypad, or
•when the vehicle is unlocked using the driver’s door key lock cylinder.
The perimeter lighting feature will turn off if:
•the vehicle is locked using the remote entry transmitter, or
•the ignition is turned to the 3 (ON) position, or
•after 25 seconds of illumination.
Enabling/disabling the perimeter lighting feature
Your vehicle comes with the perimeter lighting feature enabled. You may
enable/disable this feature by having your vehicle serviced by your
authorized dealer.
You may also perform the following power door lock sequence to
enable/disable the perimeter lamps feature. All vehicle doors must be
closed before beginning the procedure. You must complete Steps 1–3
within 30 seconds, or the procedure will have to be repeated.

2. Turn the ignition to the 1 (OFF) position, then press the
control
three times.

then go out. If the key was not successfully programmed, it will not start
your vehicle’s engine and the theft indicator light will flash on and off
rapidly. If failure repeats, bring your vehicle to your authorized dealer to
have the new key(s) programmed.
To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat this procedure
from Step 1 for each additional key.
ACTIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The active anti-theft system is designed to warn you in the event of an
unauthorized entry to your vehicle and is also designed to help prevent
the unwanted towing of the vehicle.
When the vehicle is locked and armed, the active anti-theft system
monitors the following:
•Doors
•Hood
•Trunk
•Movement inside the vehicle
•Change in vehicle inclination
Note:The active anti-theft system includes a motion detection system
which monitors the passenger cabin and a vehicle incline sensor which
detects changes in vehicle attitude.
The interior motion detection and vehicle incline sensing systems
will operate only when the vehicle is locked using the remote
keyless entry transmitter or when using the power door lock
control with the accompanying door open and all doors then
become closed. For convertible vehicles, the convertible top must
be in the fully closed and latched position for the interior motion
sensing system to arm. If you lock the vehicle using the key in the
driver door key cylinder, the system will monitor the doors,
trunk, and hood but the motion sensing and vehicle incline
sensing will not arm.
Do not arm the interior motion detection system if movement within the
vehicle is likely to occur. Additionally, do not arm the vehicle incline
sensing system when the vehicle is in transport.
For proper operation of the interior motion detection system, ensure all
windows are closed prior to arming the system. This will help prevent
accidental alarm activation due to external influences and ensure proper
interior motion detection. Additionally, the interior motion sensing
system will not arm if either door or the trunk is ajar.
