VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicle doors for
unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for unauthor-
ized operation. While the vehicle security alarm is armed,
interior switches for door locks and liftgate release are
disabled. If something triggers the alarm, the vehicle
security alarm will provide the following audible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or
turn signals will flash, and the vehicle security light on the
instrument panel will flash.
To Arm The System
1. Remove the key from the ignition switch and get out of
the vehicle.
2. Lock the door using either the Central Lock/Unlock switch or the Remote Keyless Entry key fob and close all
doors.
3. The horn will sound and the vehicle security light in the instrument cluster will switch on for approximately
three seconds. This shows that the vehicle security
alarm is about to arm. During this period, if a door is
opened, the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN, or
the power door locks are unlocked in any manner, the
vehicle security alarm will automatically disarm. After
approximately three seconds, the vehicle security light
will flash. This shows that the vehicle security alarm is
fully armed.
The activation of the vehicle security alarm is followed by
a self-diagnosis stage. If a fault is detected during the
self-diagnosis stage, the horn will sound a second time.

WARNING!(Continued)
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured. Children
should be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave the
ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-
N-Go in the ON/RUN mode. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury or death.

WARNING!
The convertible top does not provide the structural
protection that a reinforced metal roof does and the
fabric top cannot be expected to prevent the ejection of
the occupants in a collision. Therefore, it is important
that all occupants wear their seat belts at all times.
Death or serious injuries could occur if you are ejected
from the vehicle during a collision.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cautions may cause interior
water damage, stains or mildew on the top material:
• Avoid high-pressure car washes, as they can damage
the top material. Also, increased water pressure may
force water past the weather strips.
• Remove any standing water from the top and dry the
surface before opening it. Operating the top, opening
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
a door or lowering a window while the top is wet
may allow water to drip into the vehicle’s interior.

directed at the weather strip seals may cause water to
leak into the vehicle’s interior.

Opening/Closing mode (automatically opening/closing to
the one-quarter open and three-quarters open comfort

2. Begin with the top in the fully closed position (using manual mode).
3. Hold the open button to move the top to the fully open position.

6. Hold the closed button to move the top to the fullyclosed position.
7. Continue to hold the closed button until the top begins to cycle fully open, then release the closed button.
At the end of step 7 the top will automatically cycle to the
fully open position, and then close to the one-quarter open
position.
This will confirm that the relearn procedure was success-
ful.
Auto open/close will now be functional, as well as trunk
lid operation, and remote keyless power top function.
NOTE: DO NOT interrupt this activity.
If the power convertible top does not relearn, repeat the
procedure a second time.
