Testing the Alarm
To test the system: 1. Make sure the trunk lid/hatch is latched.
2. Lower the window on the driver door.
3. Manually arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait 30 seconds.
5. Reach through the open window and manually pull the release lever on the floor.
6. Press the unlock button on the transmitter to turn off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound, check to see if the horn
works. The horn fuse may be blown. See Fuses and
Circuit Breakers
on page 6‑101. If the horn works, but
the alarm does not go off, see your dealer/retailer.
Disarming the System
Press the unlock button on the keyless access
transmitter or squeeze the door handle sensor while
the transmitter is near the vehicle to unlock a door.
Unlocking a door any other way sets off the alarm.
If the alarm sounds, press the unlock button on the
keyless access transmitter to disarm it.
Do not leave the key or device that disarms or
deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.
Immobilizer
See Radio Frequency Statementon page 8‑20for information regarding Part 15 of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and
RSS-210/211 of Industry Canada.
Immobilizer Operation
The vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed when the ignition is
turned off.
The immobilization system is disarmed when the
ignition is turned to OFF/ACCESSORY or START and
a valid transmitter is found in the vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or disarm the system.
The security light comes on if there is a problem with
arming or disarming the theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more keyless access
transmitters that are matched to an immobilizer control
unit in the vehicle. Only a correctly matched keyless
access transmitter starts the vehicle. The vehicle may
not start if the keyless access transmitter is damaged.
If the engine does not start and the security light comes
on, there may be a problem with the immobilizer
system. Press the START button again.

4. Push and hold the bottom of the power
convertible top button,
located to the left of the
steering wheel, on the
instrument panel.
The windows will automatically lower and the
convertible top will lower into the rear of the vehicle.
A chime will sound when the convertible top has
lowered completely. If the radio is on the sound may
be muted for a brief time due to a new audio system
equalization being loaded.
If the convertible top is operated multiple times, the
engine should be running to prevent drain on the
vehicle's battery. Under certain conditions, the Driver
Information Center (DIC) may display a message
regarding the power convertible top. See DIC Warnings
and Messages
on page 4‑52for more information.
Raising the Power Convertible Top
Notice: If you raise or lower the convertible top
while the vehicle is in motion, you could damage
the top or the top mechanism. The repairs would
not be covered by your warranty. Always put an
automatic transmission in (P) Park or a manual
transmission in (N) Neutral before raising or
lowering the convertible top.
1. Park on a level surface. Start the engine. Shift an automatic transmission into P (Park) and set the
parking brake. Shift a manual transmission into
N (Neutral) and set the parking brake.
2. Make sure the trunk lid is closed and the rear trunk partition in the rear storage area is in the fastened
upright position, and that no objects are forward of
the divider. See “Rear Trunk Partition” underRear
Storage Area on page 3‑51.
3. Push and hold the top of the power convertible top button. The top will raise and the windows will
lower if they were in the raised position. A chime
will sound when the top is raised completely.

Jump Starting
If your battery has run down, you may want to use
another vehicle and some jumper cables to start your
vehicle. Be sure to use the following steps to do it
safely.
{WARNING:
Batteries can hurt you. They can be dangerous
because:
.They contain acid that can burn you.
.They contain gas that can explode or ignite.
.They contain enough electricity to burn you.
If you do not follow these steps exactly, some or
all of these things can hurt you.
Notice: If you try to start your vehicle by pushing or
pulling it, you could damage your vehicle. Do not
push or pull your vehicle to start it; instead, use the
jump starting procedure in this manual to start your
vehicle when the battery has run down.
1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt battery with a negative ground system. Notice:
If the other vehicle's system is not a 12-volt
system with a negative ground, both vehicles can
be damaged. Only use vehicles with 12-volt systems
with negative grounds to jump start your vehicle.
2. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles are not
touching each other. If they are, it could cause a
ground connection you do not want. You would
not be able to start your vehicle, and the bad
grounding could damage the electrical systems.
To avoid the possibility of the vehicles rolling, set
the parking brake firmly on both vehicles involved
in the jump start procedure. Put an automatic
transmission in P (Park) or a manual transmission
in Neutral before setting the parking brakes.
Notice: If you leave the radio or other accessories
on during the jump starting procedure, they could
be damaged. The repairs would not be covered by
the warranty. Always turn off the radio and other
accessories when jump starting the vehicle.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug unnecessary accessories plugged into the
cigarette lighter or the accessory power outlet.
Turn off the radio and all lamps that are not
needed. This will avoid sparks and help save
both batteries. And it could save the radio!
