passenger door, other doors, ignition) after three minutes,
the headlights, park lamps and/or turn signals will flash
for an additional 15 minutes.
NOTE:The Panic Alarm and the vehicle security alarm are
quite different. Please take a moment to activate the Panic
Alarm and the vehicle security alarm to hear the differ-
ences in the horn. In case one should go off in the future,
you will need to know which mode has been activated in
order to deactivate it.
Rearming 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
minutes, and then the vehicle security alarm will rearm
itself.
To Arm The System
The vehicle security alarm will set when you use the
Remote Keyless Entry key fob to lock the doors and swing
gate, or when you use the power door lock switch while
the door is open. After all the doors are locked and closed,
the vehicle security light (located on the instrument cluster)
will flash rapidly for about 16 seconds to signal that the
vehicle security alarm is arming. During this 16-second arming period, opening any door or the swing gate will
cancel the arming. If the vehicle security alarm is success-
fully set, the vehicle security light will flash at a slower rate
to indicate the vehicle security alarm is armed.
To Disarm The System
To disarm the vehicle security alarm, you will need to push
the unlock button on the key fob, or turn the ignition
switch to the ON/RUN position. If something has trig-
gered the vehicle security alarm in your absence, the horn
will sound three times, and the exterior lights blink three
times when you unlock the doors. Check the vehicle for
tampering.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
vehicle security alarm will arm unexpectedly. If you remain
in the vehicle and lock the doors with the key fob, once the
vehicle security alarm is armed (after 16 seconds), when
you pull the door handle to exit, the alarm will sound. If
this occurs, push the unlock button on the key fob to
disarm the vehicle security alarm. You may also acciden-
tally disarm the vehicle security alarm by unlocking the
driver’s door with the key and then locking it. The door
will be locked but the vehicle security alarm will not arm.

To Raise The Rear Seat
Raise the seatback and lock it into place. If interference
from the cargo area prevents the seatback from fully
locking, you will have difficulty returning the seat to its
proper position.
NOTE:If the rear seatback is not fully latched, the center
shoulder belt will not be able to be extended for use. If you
cannot extend the center shoulder belt, make sure your
seatback is fully latched.
WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into
position. If the seatback is not securely locked into
position the seat will not provide the proper stability
for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly
latched seat could cause serious injury.
Heated Seats — If Equipped
On some models, the front driver and passenger seats may
be equipped with heaters in both the seat cushions and
seatbacks. There are two heated seat switches that allow the driver
and passenger to operate the seats independently. The
controls for each seat are located on a switch bank near the
bottom center of the instrument panel.
You can choose from HI, LO or OFF heat settings. Amber
indicator lights in each switch indicate the level of heat in
use. Two indicator lights will illuminate for HI, one for LO
and none for OFF.
Push the switch once to select HI-level heating.
Push the switch a second time to select LO-level
heating. Push the switch a third time to shut the
heating elements OFF.
When the HI-level setting is selected, the heater will
provide a boosted heat level during the initial stages of
operation. Then, the heat output will drop to the normal
HI-level. If the HI-level setting is selected, the system will
automatically switch to LO-level after approximately 30
minutes of continuous operation. At that time, the number
of illuminated LEDs changes from two to one, indicating
the change. The LO-level setting will turn OFF automati-
cally after approximately 30 minutes.
