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

at which all of the doors and the tailgate are
locked by pressing the LOCK switch on the remote
control switch or the keyless operation function to
the point at which the system armed mode goes in-
to effect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily open
a door or the tailgate without using the keyless en-
try system or the keyless operation function 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

security indicator continues to blink with the
indicator’s reduced lit-up duration time.)
Once the system preparation mode has ended, the
system armed mode starts.
If an unlawful opening of any of the doors, tailgate
or 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 activation” on page 1-33.
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.
Refer to “Cancelling the system” on page 1-32,
“Cancelling the alarm” on page 1-33. NOTE
l When
lending the vehicle to another person
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.
If a person who is unfamiliar with the securi-
ty alarm system accidentally unlocked the ve-
hicle, causing the alarm to sound, the alarm
would be a nuisance to people nearby.

It is possible to set the security alarm to the “ac-
tive” mode or “inactive” mode.
Follow the procedure below.
