VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED

The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle doors for
unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for unauthorized
operation. When the alarm is activated, the interior switches for
door locks, power sliding doors and power liftgate are disabled.
The Vehicle Security system provides both audible and visible
signals. If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security
system will provide the following audible and visible signals: the
horn will pulse, the parking lights and/or turn signals will flash,
and the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will
flash.

(i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in
long enough, the vehicle's battery will discharge suffi -
ciently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
 Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these intermit -
tently and with greater caution.
 After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces -
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to
recharge the vehicle's battery.
