Theft
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 ignition key?
0
If
possible, park in a busy, well lit area.
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 ignition and transaxle will be locked. 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.
Put your valuables in a storage area, like your
trunk
or
glove box. Be sure to close and lock the storage area.
Close all windows.
0
Lock the glove box.
Lock all the doors except the driver’s.

Then take the door key and remote keyless entry
transmitter with you.
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.
