GUARD AGAINST THEFT
Your
new
Firebird, Esprit, Formula or Trans Am has many features to
help prevent theft
of
the
car
itself, its equipment, and contents. But these
anti-theft features depend upon you to work.
The time to
be
most on guard is when leaving the
car
...
•
Park
in a lighted spot when you can.
• Lock the steering column and take the keys:
•
Turn
the key to
"Lock"
and remove the key. This locks the
ignition and both steering
and
shift controls.
•
If
you must leave a key with the car, leave the square-head key
only. Take the oval-head key with you. This will help prevent
illegal entry into your
car
at
a later date or into your glove box
(if locked) or trunk.
• Fully close all windows and lock all doors.
• Keep costly items out
of
sight and locked up:
• Never leave things
of
value
in
plain sight on seat or floor.
• The glove box offers a place to hide small items and, if locked,
protects even better.
• Lock larger items in the trunk.
NOTICE: Do not park your
car
over combustible materials, such as
grass or leaves. They could touch the hot exhaust system and ignite.
