Medical Condition.A passenger has a
medical condition which, according to his or
her physician:

causes the passenger airbag to pose a
special risk for the passenger; and
makes the potential harm from the passenger
airbag in a crash greater than the potential
harm from turning off the airbag and allowing
the passenger, even if belted, to hit the
dashboard or windshield in a crash.
{CAUTION:
If the right front passenger’s airbag is
turned off for a person who is not in a risk
group identied by the national
government, that person will not have the
extra protection of an airbag. In a crash,
the airbag will not be able to inate and
help protect the person sitting there. Do
not turn off the passenger’s airbag unless
the person sitting there is in a risk group.To turn off the right front passenger’s airbag,
insert your ignition key into the switch, push in,
and move the switch to the off position.
The airbag off light will come on to let you know that
the right front passenger’s airbag is off. The airbag
off light will stay on to remind you that the airbag is
off. The right front passenger’s airbag will remain off
until you turn it back on again.

{CAUTION:
If the airbag readiness light ever comes on
when you have turned off the airbag, it
means that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. The right front
passenger’s airbag could inate even
though the switch is off. If this ever
happens, do not let anyone whom the
national government has identied as a
member of a passenger airbag risk group
sit in the right front passenger’s position
(for example, do not secure a rear-facing
child restraint in the right front passenger’s
seat) until you have your vehicle serviced.
SeeAirbag Readiness Light on page 207
for additional information.To turn the right front passenger’s airbag on
again, insert your ignition key into the switch, push
in, and move the switch to the on position.

Restraint System Check
Checking the Restraint Systems
Now and then, make sure the safety belt reminder
light and all your belts, buckles, latch plates,
retractors and anchorages are working properly.
Look for any other loose or damaged safety
belt system parts. If you see anything that might
keep a safety belt system from doing its job, have
it repaired. SeeCare of Safety Belts on page 495
for more information.
Torn or frayed safety belts may not protect you in
a crash. They can rip apart under impact forces.
If a belt is torn or frayed, get a new one right away.Also look for any opened or broken airbag covers,
and have them repaired or replaced. The airbag
system does not need regular maintenance.
Notice:If you damage the covering for the
driver’s or the right front passenger’s airbag,
the airbag may not work properly. You may
have to replace the airbag module in the
steering wheel or both the airbag module and
the instrument panel for the right front
passenger’s airbag. Do not open or break the
airbag coverings.

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.
