Theft
Vehicle theft
is
big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to,steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key in the Ignition
If
you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s
an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
--
so
don’t do it.
When you park your vehicle and open the driver’s door,
you’ll hear a chime reminding you to remove your key
from the ignition and take
it
with you. Always do this.
Your steering wheel will be locked, and
so
will your
ignition and transmission. And remember to lock
the doors.
Parking at
Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out of sight.
Put them
in
a storage area, or take them with you.
Parking
Lots
If
you park
in
a lot where someone will be watching
your vehicle, it’s best to lock it up and take your keys.
But
what
if
you have to leave your key?
Do
not leave
valuables in your vehicle, since there is no locking area
in which to secure them. Lock all doors except
the driver’s.
Passlock@
Your vehicle is equipped with the Passlock
theft-deterrent system.
Passlock
is
a passive theft-deterrent system. The system
is armed once the key is removed from the ignition.
Passlock enables fuel
if
the ignition lock cylinder is
turned
with
a valid key.
If
a correct key is not used, fuel
is disabled.
During normal operation,
the
SECURITY
light will
eo
off after the engine is started.
