If the theft deterrent system detects an
inappropriate entry into the vehicle,
which could result in the vehicle or its

warning lights.

The system will not function unless it's
properly armed. So when you leave the
vehicle, follow the arming procedure
correctly.

y Forcing open a door, the hood or the

Maintenance and Care
Owner Maintenance
Inspect À uid level in the washer À uid
reservoir; add À uid if necessary.

E

Use plain water if washer À uid is
unavailable.
But use only washer À uid in cold weather
to prevent it from freezing.
N O T E
Front and rear washer À uid is supplied
from the same reservoir.

Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and hood hinges and locks, should
be lubricated each time the engine oil is
changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on
locks during cold weather.

Make sure the hood's secondary latch
keeps the hood from opening when the
primary latch is released.
