Before arming the theft-deterrent
system and activating the intrusion
sensor:
.Make sure both doors and
windows are completely closed.
. Secure any loose items such as
sunshades.
. Make sure there are no
obstructions blocking the
sensors.
Intrusion and Inclination
Sensors Disable Switch
It is recommended that the intrusion
and inclination sensors be
deactivated if pets are left in the
vehicle or if the vehicle is being
transported.
When the roof panel is off, or the
convertible top is down, the
intrusion system is turned off.
With the vehicle turned off, press
d
to the right of the hatch/trunk
release button. The indicator light
will come on momentarily, indicating that these sensors have been
disabled until the next time the
alarm system is armed.
Immobilizer
See
Radio Frequency Statement
0 340.
Immobilizer Operation
The vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The security light comes on in the
instrument cluster if there is a
problem with arming or disarming
the theft-deterrent system. This light
also comes on briefly when the
engine is started.
The system is automatically armed
when the ignition is turned off. The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is turned
on or placed in ACC/ACCESSORY
and a valid transmitter is found in
the vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The system has one or more RKE
transmitters that are matched to an
immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle. Only a correctly matched
RKE transmitter starts the vehicle.
The vehicle may not start if the RKE
transmitter is damaged.
If the engine does not start and the
security light comes on, there may
be a problem with the immobilizer
system. Press ENGINE START/
STOP again.
If the vehicle does not start and the
RKE transmitter appears to be
undamaged, try another RKE
transmitter. Or, place the transmitter
in the transmitter pocket. Check the
fuse. See
Fuses0258. If the engine
still does not start with the other
transmitter, or with the transmitter in
the transmitter pocket, the vehicle

Troubleshooting
Check the following if the
convertible top switch
Mis not
operating:
. The ignition should be on or in
ACC/ACCESSORY, or Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) should
be active.
. The trunk lid should be closed
and the trunk partition in place.
A DIC message will display.
. If the ONLY MANUAL
OPERATION OF TOP
POSSIBLE message is
displayed on the DIC, see
“Manual Movement of Top” later
in this section.
. At cooler outside temperatures,
the convertible top may not
open. It is possible to close the
top down to temperatures of
about −20 °C (−4 °F). A DIC
message will display if the top
will not open due to low
temperature. If necessary, move
the vehicle to a heated indoor
area to operate the top. .
If the top has recently been
cycled repeatedly or left in an
intermediate state, it will be
temporarily disabled. A DIC
message displays. Normal
operation will be restored within
10 minutes after the system has
cooled.
. If the vehicle battery is low, the
power top operation may be
disabled. Try to start the vehicle.
A DIC message displays.
. If the battery has recently been
reconnected or if the vehicle has
been jump started, the top may
not operate until the power
windows have been indexed.
Complete the power window
indexing procedure. See Power
Windows 046.
Other features may be affected
while operating the convertible top:
. The trunk can only be opened
with the key until the convertible
top is completely opened or
closed. .
Do not try to start the vehicle
while opening the top with the
RKE transmitter. A DIC message
may display. Release both
buttons and wait a few seconds
before starting the vehicle
normally.
. The passive door unlock feature
may not operate properly while
using the RKE transmitter to
open the convertible top.
. The windows cannot close while
the top is moving.
. When driving with the top not
fully secured, chimes can be
heard above 80 km/h (50 mph).
If the vehicle battery has been
disconnected and reconnected, the
fuses were pulled or replaced, or a
jump start was performed, the TOP
NOT SECURE message may
display. Press and hold
Mon the
RKE transmitter or on the
instrument panel to open/close the
top until this message is cleared.

102 Instruments and Controls
Caution
Leaving electrical equipment
plugged in for an extended period
of time while the vehicle is off will
drain the battery. Always unplug
electrical equipment when not in
use and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum
20 amp rating.
Certain electrical accessories may
not be compatible with the
accessory power outlet and could
overload vehicle or adapter fuses.
If a problem is experienced, see
your dealer.
When adding electrical equipment,
be sure to follow the proper
installation instructions included with
the equipment. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0216. It is recommended that a qualified
technician or dealer be seen for the
proper installation of your
equipment.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment from
the power outlet can cause
damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty. The power
outlets are designed for
accessory power plugs only, such
as cell phone charge cords.
Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious enough
to cause an expensive repair or
replacement. Paying attention to the
warning lights and gauges could
prevent injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly
when the engine is started to
indicate they are working. When
one of the warning lights comes on
and stays on while driving, or when
one of the gauges shows there may
be a problem, check the section that
explains what to do. Waiting to do
repairs can be costly and even
dangerous.

Electrical System
Electrical System
Overload
The vehicle has fuses to protect
against an electrical system
overload. Fuses also protect power
devices in the vehicle.
Replace a bad fuse with a new one
of the identical size and rating.
If there is a problem on the road and
a fuse needs to be replaced, there
are some spare fuses and a fuse
puller in the Instrument Panel Fuse
Block. The same amperage fuse
can also be borrowed. Choose
some feature of the vehicle that is
not needed to use and replace it as
soon as possible.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats due to
heavy snow or ice, the windshield
wipers will stop until the motor cools
and will then restart. Although the circuit is protected
from electrical overload, overload
due to heavy snow or ice may
cause wiper linkage damage.
Always clear ice and heavy snow
from the windshield before using the
windshield wipers.
If the overload is caused by an
electrical problem and not snow or
ice, be sure to get it fixed.
Fuses
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are
protected from short circuits by
fuses. This greatly reduces the
chance of fires caused by electrical
problems.
{Danger
Fuses and circuit breakers are
marked with their ampere rating.
Do not exceed the
specified amperage rating when
replacing fuses and circuit
breakers. Use of an oversized
fuse or circuit breaker can result

Danger (Continued)
in a vehicle fire. You and others
could be seriously injured or
killed.
Look at the silver-colored band
inside the fuse. If the band is broken
or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure
to replace a bad fuse with a new
one of the identical size and rating.
Fuses of the same amperage can
be temporarily borrowed from
another fuse location, if a fuse goes
out. Replace the fuse as soon as
possible.
Engine Compartment
Fuse Block
There is one fuse block in the
engine compartment on the
passenger side of the vehicle. See
Engine Compartment Overview
0 225 for more information on
location.
Caution
Spilling liquid on any electrical
component on the vehicle may
damage it. Always keep the
covers on any electrical
component.
