tion whenever the driver's door is closed.

releases the locks on the following:

handles on the driver's and front passen-
ger's doors

time. It prevents the doors from being unlocked
using the lock buttons or door handles. In addi-
tion, if the remote control is used, the welcome
lamps, interior lamps and the door's courtesy

tem
* is also armed or disarmed.For further details of the alarm system,

rior lamps come on.
