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
button or the remote keyless entry transmitter.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident,
do the following:
D
Always unlock a door with a known key or use the
remote keyless entry transmitter. (Using a known
key or pressing the unlock button on the remote
keyless entry transmitter disables the theft
-deterrent
system.) Unlocking a door any other way, such
as using an unknown key, will activate the
alarm system.
D
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.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock the drivers
door with your key. You can also turn off the alarm by
using the unlock button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter or by starting the vehicle with a known key.
The alarm won’t stop if you try to unlock a door any
other way.
Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window, then
get out of the vehicle, keeping the door open.
2. From outside of the vehicle, with the door open, lock
the vehicle using the power door lock or the remote
keyless entry transmitter and close the door. Wait
30 seconds until the SECURITY light goes off.
3. Reach in and unlock the door using the manual lock
lever and open the door. The horn will sound and the
headlamps will flash.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to
see if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown.
To replace the fuse, see “Fuses and Circuit Breakers”
in the Index. If the fuse does not need to be replaced,
you may need to have your vehicle serviced.
To reduce the possibility of theft, always activate the
theft
-deterrent system when leaving your vehicle.
