A WORD ABOUT YOUR
KEYSThe authorized dealer that sold you
your vehicle has the key code numbers
for your vehicle locks. These numbers
can be used to order duplicate keys
from your authorized dealer. Ask your
authorized dealer for these numbers
and keep them in a safe place.You can insert the double-sided keys
into the locks with either side up.
IGNITION KEY REMOVAL
Automatic Transaxle
Place the shift lever in PARK. Turn
the ignition switch to the ACC posi-
tion, push the key and cylinder in-
ward, rotate the key to the LOCK
position, and remove the key.NOTE:
 If you try to remove the key be-
fore you place the shift lever in
PARK, the key may become
trapped temporarily in the igni-
tion switch lock cylinder. If this
occurs, rotate the key to the right
slightly, then remove the key as
described. If a malfunction oc-
curs, the system will trap the key
in the ignition switch lock cylin-
der to warn you that this safety
feature is inoperable. The en-
gine can be started and stopped,
but the key cannot be removed
until you obtain service. 
The power window switches, radio,
hands-free system , and power out-
lets will remain active for up to
10 minutes after the ignition switch
is turned to the LOCK position.
Opening either front door will
cancel this feature. The time for
this feature is programmable. Re-
fer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)/Personal Set-
tings (Customer-Programmable
Features)” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” for further in-
formation.WARNING!
 Before exiting a vehicle, always
apply the parking brake, shift the
transmission into PARK, and
push ignition button to place ig-
nition in OFF position. When
leaving the vehicle, always lock
your vehicle.
 Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an un-
locked vehicle.

WARNING!(Continued)
 Allowing children to be in a ve- hicle unattended is dangerous for
a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fa-
tally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the shift
lever.
 Do not leave the Key Fob in or
near the vehicle, or in a location
accessible to children, and do not
leave the ignition in the ACC or
ON/RUN position. A child could
operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle.
 Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or
death.CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation to
thieves. Always remove key from
the ignition and lock all doors when
leaving the vehicle unattended. KEY-IN-IGNITION
REMINDER
Opening the driver's door when the
key is in the ignition sounds a signal to
remind you to remove the key.
NOTE:
 The Key-In-Ignition reminder
only sounds when the ignition
key is placed in the LOCK or
ACC position.
 With either/both front doors open and a key in the ignition,
the power door lock buttons on
the interior trim panel are dis-
abled. This is an attempt to limit
locking the keys in the vehicle.
LOCKING THE DOORS
WITH THE KEY
There is only one external door lock
cylinder which is located in the driv-
er's door.
You can insert the key with either side
up. To lock the door, turn the key
clockwise. To unlock the door, turn
the key counterclockwise. For door lock lubrication, see “Maintenance
Procedures” in “Maintaining Your Ve-
hicle” of this manual.
SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer System
prevents unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion by disabling the engine. The sys-
tem does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic, re-
gardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses ignition keys which
have an embedded electronic chip
(transponder) to prevent unauthor-
ized vehicle operation. Therefore,
only keys that are programmed to the
vehicle can be used to start and oper-
ate the vehicle. The system will shut
the engine off in two seconds if some-
one uses an invalid key to start the
engine.
NOTE: A key which has not been
programmed is also considered an
invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the
ignition switch lock cylinder for
that vehicle.
13

During normal operation, after turn-
ing on the ignition switch, the Vehicle
Security Light will turn on for three
seconds for a bulb check. If the light
remains on after the bulb check, it
indicates that there is a problem with
the electronics. In addition, if the light
begins to flash after the bulb check, it
indicates that someone used an in-
valid key to start the engine. Either of
these conditions will result in the en-
gine being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on
during normal vehicle operation (ve-
hicle running for longer than 10 sec-
onds), it indicates that there is a fault
in the electronics. Should this occur,
have the vehicle serviced as soon as
possible by an authorized dealer.CAUTION!
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer sys-
tem is not compatible with some
after-market remote starting sys-
tems. Use of these systems may re-
sult in vehicle starting problems
and loss of security protection.All of the keys provided with your new
vehicle have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics.
REPLACEMENT KEYS
NOTE: Only keys that have been
programmed to the vehicle elec-
tronics can be used to start the
vehicle. Once a Sentry Key® has
been programmed to a vehicle, it
cannot be programmed to any
other vehicle.
CAUTION!
Always remove Sentry Keys from
the vehicle and lock all doors when
leaving the vehicle unattended.At the time of purchase, the original
owner is provided with a four-digit
Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Keep the PIN in a secure location. This
number is required for authorized
dealer replacement of keys. Duplica-
tion of keys consists of programming a
blank key to the vehicle electronics. A
blank key is one which has never been
programmed. See your authorized
dealer if you require replacement or
additional keys for your vehicle.
NOTE: When having the Sentry
Key® Immobilizer System ser-
viced, bring all vehicle keys with
you to the authorized dealer.
CUSTOMER KEY
PROGRAMMING
See your authorized dealer if you re-
quire replacement or additional keys

VEHICLE SECURITY
ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors
the doors, and trunk for unauthorized
entry and ignition switch for unau-
thorized operation.
While the Vehicle Security Alarm is
armed, interior switches for door
locks and decklid release are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the
Vehicle Security Alarm will sound the
horn intermittently, flash the head-
lights, the park lights, and the tail-
lights, and flash the Vehicle Security
Light in the cluster.
REARMING OF THE
SYSTEM
If something triggers the alarm, and
no action is taken to disarm it, the
Vehicle Security Alarm will turn off
the horn after three minutes, turn off
all of the visual signals after 15 min-
utes, and then the Vehicle Security
Alarm will rearm itself.TO ARM THE SYSTEM
1. Remove the keys from the ignition
switch and exit the vehicle.
2. Lock the doors by pressing the
power door lock switch or the LOCK
button on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter.
NOTE: The Vehicle Security
Alarm will not arm if you lock the
doors with the manual door lock
plungers.
3. Close all doors. The Vehicle Secu-
rity Light in the instrument cluster
will flash rapidly for 16 seconds. This
shows that the Vehicle Security Alarm
is arming. After 16 seconds, the Ve-
hicle Security Light will flash slowly.
This shows that the Vehicle Security
Alarm is fully armed.
NOTE:
 During the 16–second arming
period, if a door is opened or the
ignition switch is turned to ON/
RUN, the Vehicle Security Alarm
will automatically disarm. 
While the Vehicle Security Alarm
is armed, interior switches for
door locks and decklid release are
disabled.TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
Either press the UNLOCK button on
the RKE transmitter or insert a valid
Sentry Key® into the ignition switch
lock cylinder and turn the key to the
ON/RUN or START position.
NOTE:
 The driver's door key cylinder
and the trunk button on the RKE
transmitter cannot arm or dis-
arm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
The Vehicle Security Alarm re-
mains armed during trunk entry.
Pressing the trunk button will not
disarm the Vehicle Security
Alarm. If someone enters the ve-
hicle through the trunk and opens
any door, the alarm will sound.When the Vehicle Security Alarm
is armed, the interior power door
lock switches will not unlock the
doors.
15

The Vehicle Security Alarm is de-
signed to protect your vehicle; how-
ever, you can create conditions where
the Vehicle Security Alarm will give
you a false alarm. If one of the previ-
ously described arming sequences has
occurred, the Vehicle Security Alarm
will arm regardless of whether you are
in the vehicle or not. If you remain in
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm
will sound. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed
and the battery becomes discon-
nected, the Vehicle Security Alarm
will remain armed when the battery is
reconnected. The exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security
Alarm.
