turning the ignition to RUN. The doors will
automatically lock and unlock and the horn will
chirp twice to indicate that you are leaving
the program mode. If the lock/unlock switches are

This message reminds you to activate the
theft-deterrent system. Here is how to do it:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter. The security light should
come on and ash. The door does not need to
be open.
If the delayed locking feature is active, the
alarm will not be activated until all doors are
closed and the security light goes off.
3. Close all doors. The security light will stop
ashing and go off after approximately
30 seconds. The content theft deterrent alarm
is not armed until the security light goes off.
If a door is opened without using the RKE
transmitter, the alarm will go off. Your vehicle’s
headlamps will ash and the horn will sound
for about two minutes, then will turn off to save
the battery power.The theft-deterrent system will not activate if you
lock the doors with a key, the manual door lock, or
the power door lock switch. It activates only if you
use the RKE transmitter. You should also
remember that you can start your vehicle with the
correct ignition key if the alarm has been set off.
Here is how to avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:
If you do not want to activate the
theft-deterrent system, the vehicle should be
locked with the door key after the doors
are closed.
Always unlock a door with the remote keyless
entry transmitter. Unlocking a door any other
way will set off the alarm if the system
has been armed.
If you set off the alarm by accident, turn off the
alarm by pressing unlock on the remote keyless
entry transmitter or by placing the key in the
ignition and turning it to START.

Testing the Alarm
The alarm can be tested by following these steps:
1. From inside the vehicle, lower the driver’s
window and open the driver’s door.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with
the RKE 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, but
the vehicle’s headlamps ash, check to see if the
horn works. The horn fuse may be blown. To
replace the fuse, seeFuses and Circuit Breakers
on page 600.
If the alarm does not sound or the vehicle’s
headlamps do not ash, see your dealer for
service.
Passlock®
Your vehicle has the Passlock®theft-deterrent
system.
Passlock
®is a passive theft-deterrent system.
Passlock®enables fuel if the ignition lock cylinder
is turned with a valid key. If a correct key is
not used or the ignition lock cylinder is tampered
with, fuel is disabled.
If the engine stalls and the security light ashes,
wait until the light stops ashing before trying
to restart the engine. Remember to release the key
from START as soon as the engine starts.
If the engine is running and the security light
comes on, you will be able to restart the engine if
you turn the engine off. However, your
Passlock
®system is not working properly and
must be serviced by your dealer. Your vehicle is
not protected by Passlock
®at this time. You

Ignition Positions
With the key in the ignition switch, you can turn it
to four different positions.
Notice:Using a tool to force the key from the
ignition switch could cause damage or break
the key. Use the correct key and turn the key
only with your hand. Make sure the key is all the
way in. If it is, turn the steering wheel left and
right while you turn the key hard. If none of this
works, then your vehicle needs service.A (LOCK):This position locks your ignition when
the key is removed. The steering locks when
equipped with a manual transmission. It is
a theft-deterrent feature. You will only be able to
remove your key when the ignition is turned
to LOCK.
B (ACCESSORY):This position allows you to use
things like the radio, power windows and the
windshield wipers when the engine is off.
{CAUTION:
On manual transmission vehicles, turning
the key to LOCK will lock the steering
column and result in a loss of ability to
steer the vehicle. This could cause a
collision. If you need to turn the engine
off while the vehicle is moving, turn the
key only to ACCESSORY. Do not press
the key release button while the vehicle is
moving.
135

C (RUN):This is the position for driving.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key
in the ACCESSORY or RUN position with the
engine off. You may not be able to start your
vehicle if the battery is allowed to drain for
an extended period of time.
D (START):This position starts your engine.
Key In the Ignition
Never leave your vehicle with the keys inside, as it
is an easy target for joy riders or thieves. If you
leave the key in the ignition and park your vehicle,
a chime will sound, when you open the driver’s
door. Always remember to remove your key from
the ignition and take it with you. This will lock
your ignition and transaxle. Also, always remember
to lock the doors.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key
in the ignition while your vehicle is parked.
You may not be able to start your vehicle after it
has been parked for an extended period of time.

Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
If the vehicle has Retained Accessory Power
(RAP), certain features will continue to operate for
up to 10 minutes after the ignition key is turned
to LOCK unless a door is opened.
Starting the Engine
Your vehicle has a Starter Motor Control. This
feature assists in starting the engine and protects
the electrical system. This feature may cause
the engine to crank even after the ignition key is
not in START.
Automatic Transmission
Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N). Your engine will not start in any
other position — that is a safety feature. To restart
when you are already moving, use NEUTRAL (N)
only. If you have a diesel engine refer to the
diesel supplement for the starting procedure.Notice:Do not try to shift to PARK (P) if your
vehicle is moving. If you do, you could
damage the transmission. Shift to PARK (P)
only when your vehicle is stopped.
Manual Transmission
The gear selector should be in NEUTRAL (N) and
the parking brake engaged. Hold the clutch
pedal to the oor and start the engine. Your
vehicle will not start if the clutch pedal is not all
the way down — that is a safety feature.
137

Starting Procedure
1. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, turn
the ignition key to START. When the engine
starts, let go of the key. The idle speed will go
down as your engine gets warm. Do not
race the engine immediately after starting it.
Operate the engine and transmission
gently until the oil warms up and lubricates all
moving parts.
Your vehicle has a Computer-Controlled
Cranking System. This feature assists in
starting the engine and protects the electrical
system. If the ignition key is turned to the
START, and then released when the engine
begins cranking, the engine will continue
cranking until the vehicle starts or until
it exceeds the maximum cranking time allowed,
approximately 15 seconds to prevent cranking
motor damage. To prevent gear damage,
this system also prevents cranking if the
engine is already running. The engine cranking
can be stopped by turning the ignition switch
to the ACCESSORY or LOCK.Notice:Holding your key in START for longer
than 15 seconds at a time will disengage
the starter motor, cause your battery to be
drained much sooner, and add excessive heat
that can damage your starter motor. Try not
to hold the key in START for longer than
15 seconds and wait about 15 seconds
between each try to help avoid draining your
battery or damaging your starter.
2. If it does not start within 10 seconds, push the
accelerator pedal all the way to the oor,
while you hold the ignition key in START.
When the engine starts, let go of the key and
let up on the accelerator pedal. Wait about
15 seconds between each try.
