Theft-Deterrent System (If Equipped)
SECURITY
If
the ignition is off and
any door is open, the
SECURITY light will flash,
reminding you to activate
the system (the light will
also flash if the battery
has
been disconnected
and reconnected).
1.
Open the door.
2.
Lock the door using the power door lock or the RKE
system. The
SECURITY
light should come on and
stay on.
3.
Close all the doors. The SECURITY light should
go
off
within approximately
30
seconds.
The horn will sound and the lamps
will
flash for about
30
seconds when the door or trunk is opened without the
key or RKE system. The horn also sounds if the locks
are damaged.
Remember, the theft-deterrent system won’t activate if
you lock the doors with a key or
use
the manual door
lock. It activates only
if
you use a power door lock
switch or the RKE system.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident:
The vehicle should be locked with the door key
after
the doors are closed if you don’t want to activate the
theft-deterrent system.
Always unlock a door with a key
or
use the RKE
system. (Pressing the unlock button on the RKE
transmitter disables the theft-deterrent system.)
Unlocking a door any other way will activate the
alarm. Cycling
the
ignition without disarming the
theft-deterrent system will also activate the alarm.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock any door
with your key. You can also turn off the alarm by using
the RKE system. The alarm won’t stop
if
you try to
unlock a door any other way.
