immobilized when the key is
removed.

started with the correct key. The key
uses a transponder that matches an
immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle and automatically disarms
the system. Only the correct key
starts the vehicle. The vehicle may
not start if the key is damaged.
If the immobilizer system is
malfunctioning, the security light will
remain on while the ignition switch
is placed in ON.
If the engine will not start using a
registered key:
1. Leave the ignition in ON for
about five seconds.
2. Turn the ignition to OFF or
LOCK, and wait for about
10 seconds.

The passenger side mirror is convex
shaped. A convex mirror's surface is

Auto-Reverse Function If any object is in the path of the
window when express operation is
active, the window stops at the
obstacle and auto-reverses to a
preset factory position. Weather
conditions such as severe icing also
cause the window to auto-reverse.
The window returns to normal
operation once the obstacle or
condition is removed. If the battery on the vehicle has
been recharged, disconnected, or is
not working, the auto-reverse
function may not operate properly.
If this occurs, see “ Programming the
Power Windows ” later in this
section.

detected. Make sure that all
passengers have their hands,
etc., inside the vehicle before
closing the window. Window Lockout

is pressed, only the driver side
window can be opened or closed.
