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. However, there are ways you
can help.
Theft-Deterrent System
Your vehicle is equipped with a theft-deterrent alarm
system.
With this system, the
security light will ¯ash
when the door is open and
locked with the power
door lock switch.
If this light is on continuously while the engine is
running, your vehicle needs service.
Arming the System
Use one of the two following items listed here to arm
the system:
·Press the lock button on the keyless access
transmitter.
·Open the door. Lock the door with the power door
lock switch. The SECURITY light should ¯ash.
Close the door. The SECURITY light will stop
¯ashing and stay on. After 30 seconds, the light
should turn off.
·The vehicle can be programmed to automatically
lock the doors when you exit the vehicle. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-66.
Now, if a door or the trunk lid is opened without the
keyless access transmitter, the alarm will go off. Your
horn will sound for two minutes, then it will go off to save
battery power. And, your vehicle will not start without
a keyless transmitter present.
The theft-deterrent system will not arm if you lock the
driver's door with the power door lock switch after
the doors are closed.
If your passenger stays in the vehicle when you leave
with the keyless access transmitter, have the passenger
lock the vehicle after the doors are closed. This way the
alarm will not arm, and your passenger will not set it off.
2-17

Testing the Alarm
Do the following to test the system:
1. Make sure the trunk lid is latched.
2. Lower the window on the driver's door.
3. Manually arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait 30 seconds.
5. Reach through the open window and manually pull
the release lever on the ¯oor.
6. Turn off the alarm by pressing the unlock button on
the transmitter.
If the alarm is inoperative, check to see if the horn
works. If not, check the horn fuse. See
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 5-85. If the horn works, but the
alarm does not go off, see your dealer.
Disarming the System
Always use your keyless access transmitter to unlock a
door either by pressing the unlock button on the
transmitter or by squeezing the door handle sensor
while you have the transmitter with you. Unlocking a
door any other way will set off the alarm. If your alarm
sounds, press the unlock button on the keyless
access transmitter to disarm it.
Valet Lockout Switch
The valet lockout switch
is located inside the
glove box.
Press the switch to ON to disable the use of the trunk
and convertible top. The trunk cannot be opened except
by using the key if the valet lockout is on.
Press the switch to OFF to enable the use of the trunk
and convertible top.
Locking the glove box with your key will also help to
secure your vehicle.

Retractable Hardtop
The following procedures explain the proper operation
of the retractable hardtop. The top will not operate if the
valet lockout switch is on.
If you are lowering or raising the convertible top multiple
times, the engine should be running while doing so to
prevent drain on the vehicle's battery.
{CAUTION:
Moving parts of the retractable hardtop can be
dangerous. People can be injured by the
hardtop and its mechanism. Keep people away
from your vehicle when you are lowering or
raising the top.
Lowering the Retractable Hardtop
Notice:Leaving the convertible top down and
exposing the interior of your vehicle to outdoor
conditions may cause damage. Always close
the convertible top if leaving your vehicle outdoors.
1. Park on a level surface and shift the transmission
into PARK (P).
2. The vehicle must be running or in accessory mode.
3. Lower both sun visors.
Notice:Raising or lowering the top while the
vehicle is in motion can cause damage to the top or
top mechanism. Make sure the vehicle is in
PARK (P) to lower or raise the top.
Notice:Lowering the top if it is damp, wet, or dirty
can cause stains, mildew, and damage to the
inside of your vehicle. Dry off the top before
lowering it.
Notice:If you lower the top on your vehicle in cold
weather (0ÉF/-18ÉC or lower), you may damage
top components. Do not lower the convertible top in

5. Push and hold the top
of the retractable
hardtop button located
behind the shift
lever. The windows will
automatically lower
and the top will raise. A
chime will sound
when the top has
raised completely.
After the top is fully raised, release the retractable
hardtop button. If you press the button again within ®ve
seconds, the windows will automatically close.
If your radio is on, you may notice a brief mute in
sound. This is normal and due to a new audio system
equalization being loaded for the vehicle with the
top raised.
Under certain conditions, the Driver Information Center
(DIC) may display a message regarding the retractable
hardtop. If this happens, see
DIC Warnings and
Messages on page 3-57for more information.If your vehicle has a power loss, such as a dead
battery, you can still raise the top manually by doing the
following:
1. Lower both sun visors and open both doors.
2. Use the key to open the trunk. See
Keys on
page 2-2andTrunk on page 2-11for more
information.
3. Raise the trunk by hand.
4. Remove the wrench located inside the passenger's
side storage compartment.
5. Find the hydraulic
pump under the carpet
on the rear driver's side
of the trunk. Open the
valve by turning it
counterclockwise with
your hand until it stops.
Notice:Pressing the convertible top button when
the hydraulic pump valve is open could damage the
pump. Always close the hydraulic pump valve
after the top has been closed manually.
