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
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.

glove box with the door
key will also help to secure
your vehicle.

trunk or fuel door if the valet button
is on.

Exterior Lighting Battery Saver
If the manual parking lamp control has been left on, the
exterior lamps will
turn off approximately 10 minutes
after the ignition is turned to

you need to purposely leave the lamps on for more than
10 minutes with the ignition in LOCK or ACCESSORY,
turn the manual control knob off and then back on. To
delay the lahps from turning off, see "Twilight
Sentinel" earlier in this section.

lighting. Cluster lighting and instrument panel lighting automatically brighten when
it becomes light outside.

lamps and the backlighting to, the 'door switches
and to
the lamp control
knob when a door is opened or if you
press

closed
or after the ignition key is placed in the ignition.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Inadvertent Power Battery Saver
This feature is designed to protect your vehicle’s
battery against drainage from the interior lamps,
trunk lamp, glove box lamp, cigarette lighters or the
garage door opener. When the ignition is turned
off,
the power to these features will automatically turn off
after 10 minutes (three minutes if a new car has 15 miles
(24 km) or less). Power will be restored for an additional
10 minutes if any door is opened, the trunk is opened or
the courtesy lamp switch is turned on.
Storage Mode Personalization
This feature is for long term use and must be
programmed through the Driver Information Center
(DIC) while the ignition is in RUN. Storage mode
personalization protects the battery by placing your
vehicle
in a storage mode so that the radio, amplifiers,
instrument cluster and remote keyless entry will not
drain the battery over a long period of time. For
programming information, see “Programmable, Memory
and Personalization Features” later in
this section.
Mirrors
Electrochromic Daymight Rearview Mirror
When this feature is turned on, the mirror automatically
changes to reduce glare from headlamps behind you. A
photocell on the mirror senses when it is becoming dark
outside. Another photocell, built into the mirror face,
senses when headlamps are behind you.
At night, when the glare is too high, the mirror will
gradually darken to reduce glare (this change may take a
few seconds). The mirror will return to its clear daytime
state when.the glare is reduced.
