The security alarm has four modes:
System preparation mode (approx. 20 seconds)
(The buzzer
sounds
intermittently, and the security
alarm indicator (A) blinks) The system preparation time extends from the
point at
which

all of the doors (including the back-
door) are locked by the keyless entry switch to the
point at which the system activation mode goes in-
to effect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily open
a door without using the keyless entry system and
without causing the alarm to sound (for example,
when you forget something inside the vehicle or re-
alize that a window is open).
System armed mode
(The buzzer stops, and the security alarm indicator
continues to blink slowly)
Once the system preparation mode has ended, the
system armed mode starts. If an unlawful opening
of any of the doors (including the backdoor) or the
bonnet is detected during the system armed mode,
the alarm will be activated to warn people around
the vehicle of an abnormal condition. Also, if unlawful moving of the vehicle is attemp-
ted or
a

vehicle intrusion is detected, the alarm will
be activated.
Alarm activation
The turn-signal lamps blink and the siren sounds
for approximately 30 seconds. Refer to “Alarm ac-
tivation” on page 1-14.
NOTE
l The alarm will resume if unlawful actions
are taken again, even if the alarm has stopped.
System cancellation
It is possible to cancel the system activation during
the system preparation mode or the system armed
mode.
In addition, it is possible to cancel the alarm once it
has been activated.

or allowing the vehicle to be driven by some-
one who is unfamiliar with the security
alarm system, be sure to give the person a
proper explanation of the security alarm sys-
tem or set the security alarm system to the “in-
active” mode.

ty alarm system accidentally unlocked the ve-
hicle, causing the alarm to sound, the alarm
would be a nuisance to people nearby. Changing the security alarm settings
