Operation on page 96andTrunk on page 106for
additional information.Content Theft-Deterrent
The security light is
located on the
instrument panel cluster.
If the ignition is off and any door is open, the
security light will ash, reminding you to arm the
system.
To arm the system:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door using the power door lock
switch with the door open or the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. The security
light should come on and stay on.
3. Close all the doors. The security light should
go off within approximately 30 seconds.
If a door or the trunk is opened without a key or a
RKE transmitter, the horn will sound and the
lamps will ash for about 30 seconds.
113

The theft-deterrent system will not arm if you lock
the doors with a key or use the manual door
lock. It activates only if you use a power door lock
with the door open or the RKE transmitter.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident:
Lock the vehicle with the door key or the
manual door lock after the doors are closed.
Always unlock a door with a key or use the
RKE transmitter system. Pressing the unlock
button on the RKE transmitter disables
the theft-deterrent system. Unlocking a door
any other way will activate the alarm when
a door or the trunk is opened.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock the
driver’s door with your key. You can also turn
off the alarm by using the unlock button on
the RKE transmitter system, or by starting the car
with a valid key.
Changes or modications made to this system by
other than an authorized service facility could
void authorization to use the theft system.
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 RKE system and close the
door. Wait 30 seconds until the security lamp
goes off.
3. Reach in and unlock the door using the
manual lock and open the door. The horn
will sound and the hazard lights will ash.
You can turn off the alarm by unlocking the driver’s
door with your key, using the unlock button on
the RKE transmitter or by starting the car with a
valid key.
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, seeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 452. If the fuse does not
need to be replaced, you may need to have your
vehicle serviced.
To reduce the possibility of theft, always arm the
theft-deterrent system when leaving your vehicle.
