vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.

hood latch, and liftgate for unauthorized entry and the
ignition switch for unauthorized operation. The system
also includes a dual function intrusion sensor and
vehicle tilt sensor. The intrusion sensor monitors the
vehicle interior for motion. The vehicle tilt sensor
monitors the vehicle for any tilting actions (tow away,
tire removal, ferry transport, etc). A siren with battery
backup which senses interruptions of power and com-
munications is also included.
In the event that something triggers the security sys-
tem, the siren will sound for 29 seconds and the
headlights will turn on and the turn signal and side
repeater lights will flash for an additional 34 seconds.
The system will repeat this sequence for up to 8
security violations in any mode (door ajar, motion,
hood ajar, etc.) before having to rearm the system. At
the end of any particular trigger event, the lights will
continue to flash for 26 seconds.

1. Remove the key from the ignition system (refer to
"Starting Procedures" in "Starting And Driving" for
