This system is designed to provide pro-
tection from unauthorized entry into the
car. This system is operated in three
stages: the first is the "Armed" stage, the
second is the "Theft-alarm" stage, and
the third is the "Disarmed" stage. If trig-
gered, the system provides an audible
alarm with blinking of the hazard warning
lights.

Armed stage
Park the car and stop the engine. Arm
the system as described below.
1. Remove the ignition key from the igni-
tion switch and exit the vehicle.
2. Make sure that all doors (and trunk lid) and the engine hood are closed and
latched.
3. Lock the doors using the transmitter of the keyless entry system.
After completion of the steps above, the
hazard warning lights will blink once to
indicate that the system is armed.
If any door (or trunk lid) or engine hood
remains open, the hazard warning lights
will not blink and the theft-alarm will not
arm. If all doors (and trunk lid) and
engine hood are closed after the lock
button is pressed, the hazard warning
lights blink once.
The system can also be armed or dis-
armed by locking or unlocking the doors
with the key from the front doors; howev-
er, the hazard warning lights will not blink
using this method. Do not arm the system until all pas-
sengers have left the vehicle. If the
system is armed while a passen-
ger(s) remains in the vehicle, the
alarm may be activated when the
remaining passenger(s) leave the
vehicle.
