{CAUTION:
If express override is activated, the

Theft-Deterrent Systems
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.
115

Content Theft-Deterrent
Your vehicle is equipped with a content
theft-deterrent alarm system.
With this system, the
security light in the
instrument panel cluster
will ash as you open
the door if your
ignition is off.
This light reminds you to activate the
theft-deterrent system. Here is how to do it:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch
or the remote keyless entry transmitter. The
security light will illuminate to inform the driver
the system is arming. If a door is open when
the doors are locked, the security light
will ash.3. Close all doors. The security light should go
off after about 30 seconds. The alarm is not
armed until the security light goes off.
If the delayed locking feature is turned on,
the theft-deterrent system will not start
the arming process until the last door is
closed and the delay timer has expired.
SeeDelayed Locking on page 102.
If a locked door is opened without the key or
the remote keyless entry transmitter, the alarm will
go off. The headlamps and parking lamps will
ash for two minutes, and the horn will sound for
30 seconds, then will turn off to save the battery
power. You can choose different feedback options
for the alarm. SeeDIC Vehicle Customization
on page 234.
Remember, the theft-deterrent system will not
activate if you lock the doors with the vehicle’s key
or use the manual door lock. It activates only if
you use a power door lock switch with the
door open, or with the remote keyless entry
transmitter. You should also remember that you
can start your vehicle with the correct ignition key if
the alarm has been set off.
116

Here is how to avoid setting off the alarm
by accident:
If you do not want to activate the
theft-deterrent system, the vehicle should be
locked with the door keyafterthe doors
are closed.
Always unlock a door with a key, or use the
remote keyless entry transmitter. Unlocking
a door any other way will set off the alarm.
If you set off the alarm by accident, unlock any
door with the key. You can also turn off the alarm
by pressing unlock on the remote keyless entry
transmitter. The alarm will not stop if you try
to unlock a door any other way.
Testing the Alarm
The alarm can be tested by following these steps:
1. From inside the vehicle, lower the driver’s
window and open the driver’s door.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with
the power door lock switch while the door is
open, or with the remote keyless entry
transmitter.
3. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and wait
for the security light to go out.
4. Then reach in through the window, unlock the
door with the manual door lock and open the
door. This should set off the alarm.
While the alarm is set, the power door unlock
switch is not operational.
If the alarm does not sound when it should but the
headlamps ash, check to see if the horn works.
The horn fuse may be blown. To replace the fuse,
seeInstrument Panel Fuse Block on page 504
andUnderhood Fuse Block on page 507.
If the alarm does not sound or the headlamps do
not ash, the vehicle should be serviced by
your dealer.
117

Passlock®
Your vehicle is equipped with the Passlock®
theft-deterrent system.
Passlock
®is a passive theft-deterrent system.
Passlock®enables fuel if the ignition lock cylinder
is turned with a valid key. If a correct key is not
used or the ignition lock cylinder is tampered with,
the fuel system is disabled and the vehicle will
not start.
During normal operation, the security light will turn
off approximately ve seconds after the key is
turned to RUN.
If the engine stalls and the security light ashes,
wait about 10 minutes until the light stops
ashing before trying to restart the engine.
Remember to release the key from START as
soon as the engine starts.If the engine does not start after three tries, the
vehicle needs service.
If the engine is running and the security light comes
on, you will be able to restart the engine if you turn
the engine off. However, your Passlock
®system is
not working properly and must be serviced by your
dealer. Your vehicle is not protected by Passlock
®
at this time. You may also want to check the fuse.
SeeInstrument Panel Fuse Block on page 504and
Underhood Fuse Block on page 507. See your
dealer for service.
In an emergency, call the Roadside Assistance
Center. SeeRoadside Assistance Program
on page 542.
118

Starting and Operating Your
Vehicle
New Vehicle Break-In
Notice:Your vehicle does not need an
elaborate break-in. But it will perform better in
the long run if you follow these guidelines:
Keep your speed at 55 mph (88 km/h)
or less for the rst 500 miles (805 km).
Do not drive at any one constant speed,
fast or slow, for the rst 500 miles
(805 km). Do not make full-throttle starts.
Avoid downshifting to brake, or slow,
the vehicle.
Avoid making hard stops for the rst
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time
your new brake linings are not yet
broken in. Hard stops with new linings can
mean premature wear and earlier
replacement. Follow this breaking-in
guideline every time you get new brake
linings.
Do not tow a trailer during break-in. See
Towing a Trailer on page 374for the
trailer towing capabilities of your vehicle
and more information.
Following break-in, engine speed and load can
be gradually increased.
119

Ignition Positions
Use the key to turn the ignition switch to
four different positions.
A (LOCK):This position locks the ignition and
transmission. It is a theft-deterrent feature. You will
only be able to remove the key when the ignition
is turned to LOCK.Notice:Using a tool to force the key from the
ignition switch could cause damage or break
the key. Use the correct key and turn the key
only with your hand. Make sure the key is all the
way in. If it is, turn the steering wheel left and
right while you turn the key hard. If none of this
works, then your vehicle needs service.
B (ACCESSORY):This position lets you use
things like the radio and the windshield wipers
when the engine is off.
Lengthy operation of features such as the radio in
the accessory ignition position and the RUN
position may drain the battery and prevent your
vehicle from starting. Do not operate your vehicle
in the accessory ignition position for a long
period of time.
C (RUN):This is the position for driving. It is the
position the switch returns to after the engine
starts, and you release the key.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key
in the ACCESSORY or RUN position with the
engine off. You may not be able to start your
vehicle if the battery is allowed to drain for
an extended period of time.
D (START):This position starts the engine.
