sounds for about 30 seconds. The
alarm system will then re-arm to
monitor the next unauthorized event.
Disarming the Alarm System
To disarm the alarm system or turn
off the alarm if it has been activated:
.PressKon the remote key.
.Unlock the vehicle using the Keyless
Access system.
.Start the vehicle.
To avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:

system or turn off the alarm.
How to Detect a Tamper
Condition
IfKis pressed on the remote key and
the horn chirps and the lights flash
three times, a previous alarm occurred
while the system was armed.
If the alarm has been activated, a
message will appear on the DIC.
Power Sounder, Inclination
Sensor, and Intrusion Sensor
In addition to the standard
theft-deterrent system features, this
system may also have a power
sounder, inclination sensor, and
intrusion sensor.
The power sounder provides an
audible alarm which is distinct from
the vehicle’s horn. It has its own
power source, and can sound an alarm
if the vehicle’s battery is
compromised.
The inclination sensor can set off the
alarm if it senses movement of the
vehicle, such as when a tire is
removed. Make sure the vehicle's
alarm is not armed prior to any
jacking. The intrusion sensor monitors the
vehicle interior, and can activate the
alarm if it senses unauthorized entry
into the vehicle's interior. Do not allow
passengers or pets to remain in the
vehicle when the intrusion sensor is
activated.
Before arming the theft-deterrent
system and activating the intrusion
sensor:
.Make sure all doors and windows
are completely closed.
.Secure any loose items such as sun
glasses.
.Make sure there are no obstructions
blocking the sensors in the front
overhead console.

Immobilizer
See Radio Frequency Statement 0438.
Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system does not have to be
manually armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically
immobilized when the vehicle is
turned off.
The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is turned
on or to ACC/ACCESSORY and a valid
remote key is present in the vehicle.
The security light, in the instrument
cluster, comes on if there is a problem
with arming or disarming the
theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more remote
keys matched to an immobilizer
control unit in the vehicle. Only a
correctly matched remote key will start the vehicle. If the remote key is
ever damaged, you may not be able to
start your vehicle.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
security light may come on briefly.
If the engine does not start and the
security light stays on, there is a
problem with the system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.
If the vehicle will not change ignition
modes (ACC/ACCESSORY, on, off), and
the remote key appears to be
undamaged, try another remote key.
Or, you may try placing the remote
key in the backup location. See
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation
07.
If the ignition modes will not change
with the other remote key or in the
backup location, the vehicle needs
service. If the ignition does change
modes, the first remote key may be
faulty. See your dealer.
It is possible for the immobilizer
system to learn new or replacement
remote keys. Up to eight remote keys

40 SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
Raising the Seatback
{Warning
If either seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there.
Always push and pull on the
seatbacks to be sure they are
locked.
{Warning
A seat belt that is improperly
routed, not properly attached,
or twisted will not provide the
protection needed in a crash. The
person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. After raising the
rear seatback, always check to be
sure that the seat belts are properly
routed and attached, and are not
twisted.To raise a seatback:
1. Lift the seatback up. Make sure the center seat belt and latch do not
get trapped behind the seat. Push
the seatback rearward to lock it in
place.
A red tab near the seatback lever
retracts when the seatback is
locked in place.
2. Push and pull the top of the seatback to be sure it is locked into
position.
3. Reconnect the center seat belt mini-latch to the mini-buckle. Do
not let the belt twist.
4. Pull on the center seat belt to make sure the mini-latch is secure.
5. Repeat the steps to raise the other seatback, if necessary.
When the seat is not in use, it should
be kept in the upright, locked position.
Seat Belts
This section describes how to use seat
belts properly, and some things not
to do.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride where a seat
belt cannot be worn properly. In a
crash, if you or your passenger(s)
are not wearing seat belts, injuries
can be much worse than if you are
wearing seat belts. You can be
seriously injured or killed by hitting
things inside the vehicle harder or
by being ejected from the vehicle.
In addition, anyone who is not
buckled up can strike other
passengers in the vehicle.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in
a cargo area, inside or outside of a
vehicle. In a collision, passengers
riding in these areas are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed. Do
not allow passengers to ride in any
area of the vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts. (Continued)

3. Pick up the latch plate and pull thebelt across you. Do not let it get
twisted.
The lap-shoulder belt may lock if
you pull the belt across you very
quickly. If this happens, let the belt
go back slightly to unlock it. Then
pull the belt across you more
slowly.
If the shoulder portion of a
passenger belt is pulled out all the
way, the child restraint locking
feature may be engaged. See Child
Restraint Systems 063. If this
occurs, let the belt go back all the
way and start again. If the locking
feature stays engaged after letting
the belt go back to stowed position
on the seat, move the seat rearward
or recline the seat until the
shoulder belt retractor lock
releases.
Engaging the child restraint locking
feature in the front outboard
seating position may affect the
passenger sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System 054. If the shoulder portion of the driver
belt is pulled out all the way, the
shoulder belt retractor lock feature
may be engaged. If this happens,
let the belt go back all the way and
start again. If the locking feature
stays engaged after letting the belt
go back to stowed position on the
seat, move the seat rearward or
recline the seat until the shoulder
belt retractor lock releases.
If the webbing locks in the latch
plate before it reaches the buckle,
tilt the latch plate flat to unlock.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckle
until it clicks.
Pull up on the latch plate to make
sure it is secure. If the belt is not
long enough, see Seat Belt Extender
0 47.
Position the release button on the
buckle so that the seat belt could
be quickly unbuckled if necessary.
