deployment force. The SRS airbags deploy with considerable
speed and force. Occupants who are out ofproper position when the SRS airbag deploys
could suffer very serious injuries. Becausethe SRS airbag needs enough space for de- ployment, the driver should always sit upright and well back in the seat as far from the steer-ing wheel as practical while still maintainingfull vehicle control and the front passengershould move the seat as far back as possibleand sit upright and well back in the seat. Do not place any objects over or near the
SRS airbag cover or between you and the SRS airbag. If the SRS airbag deploys, those ob-jects could interfere with its proper operationand could be propelled inside the car and
cause injury.
HG1002BA
WARNING
Put children aged 12 and under in the rear
seat properly restrained at all times. The SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed andforce and can injure or even kill children, es-
pecially if they are 12 years of age and underand are not restrained or improperly re- strained. Because children are lighter and
weaker than adults, their risk of being injured
from deployment is greater. For that reason, we strongly recommend thatALL children (including those in child seats
and those that have outgrown child restraint
devices) sit in the REAR seat properly re-

operates by operating each transmitter. Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the keyless entry system has four
memory locations to store transmitter codes, givingit the ability to operate with up to four transmitters.
When you lose a transmitter, the lost transmitter ’s
code remains in the memory. For security reasons,
lost transmitter codes should be deleted from the
memory.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four trans-
mitter codes into the system. If you have only one
current transmitter, program it four times. If you have
two current transmitters, program each one twice. If
you have three current transmitters, program two of
them once and the third one twice. This process will
leave only current transmitter codes in the system ’s
memory. NOTE
Make sure no one else is operating their keyless entry system within range of your vehicle whenprogramming transmitters. If someone else wereto operate their remote transmitter while you are programming your transmitters, it is possible that their transmitter code will be programmedinto your system, allowing them unauthorized
access to your vehicle. Security system (if equipped)
The security system helps to protect your vehicle
and valuables from theft. The horn sounds and the
parking lights flash if someone attempts to break
into your vehicle. The starter motor is also inter-
rupted to prevent starting the vehicle without a key.
The system can be armed and disarmed with the
remote transmitter.The system does not operate when the key is in-
serted into the ignition switch.
System operation
The security system will give the following alarm in-
dications when triggered: The parking lights will flash and the horn will
sound intermittently. In addition, the starter motor willnot operate. The alarm automatically resets after 30 seconds;
however, the alarm will reactivate if the vehicle is
tampered with again. The alarm will continue for sixtimes if any sensor continues to be activated.
The alarm is triggered by: Opening a door, the rear gate or trunk lid.
Application of physical shock to the vehicle (e.g.

breaking glass or forced entry). Note that there are
two alarm levels for shock: warning and alarm. In
warning mode, the alarm detects lower level vibra-
tions and triggers 2 warning chirps on the horn and
two flashes on the lights as a deterrent to would be
vandals. In alarm mode, higher levels of shock are
detected and the system will go into full alarm. Ignition switch being turned on while in armed

CAUTION
In passive mode, the system will automatically
activate the alarm but WILL NOT automatically lock the doors. In order to lock the doors you

DISARM” button on the transmitter.
n Tripped sensor identification
If the horn sounds four times and the parking lights
flash four times when you disarm the system, this in-
dicates that the alarm was triggered. The number oftimes the indicator light flashes indicates what sen-
sor caused the alarm condition.
To enter identification mode:
1. Open the driver ’s door and leave it open.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position two
times. ( “LOCK” “ON” “LOCK” “ON”
“LOCK”)
3. The indicator light will start flashing. The indicator light provides the following indications.Flashing one time:
Any door, the rear gate or the
trunk lid has been opened.Flashing three times: The impact sensor in the sys-
tem’ s unit has been activated. This may indicate that
your vehicle has been shocked or tampered with by
some outside force and/or unauthorized person. Flashing four times: The ignition switch has been
turned on or the battery has been disconnected.
To exit this mode, close the door and turn the igni-
tion switch to the “ON” position.
