The system is automatically
disarmed when the vehicle is
started with a valid RKE transmitter
in the vehicle. The RKE transmitter
uses electronic coding that matches
an immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle and automatically disarms
the system. Only a correct
transmitter can be used to turn the
vehicle on.
The security light comes on if there
is a problem with arming or
disarming the theft-deterrent
system.
This light comes on briefly when the
vehicle is turned on. There is a
problem if the engine does not start
and this light stays on.
Turn the ignition off and try again.If the engine still does not start, and
the RKE transmitter appears
undamaged, try the other RKE
transmitter for the vehicle, or place
the RKE transmitter in the
transmitter slot. See

Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation on page 2-2. It may be
necessary to check the fuse. See

Exterior Mirrors
Convex Mirrors
{Warning
A convex mirror can make things,
like other vehicles, look farther
away than they really are. If you
cut too sharply into the right lane,
you could hit a vehicle on the
right. Check the inside mirror or
