Changes or modi®cations to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
If you ever notice a decrease in the remote keyless
entry transmitter range, try doing one of the following:
·Check the distance. You may be too far from
your vehicle. You may need to stand closer during
rainy or snowy weather.
·Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may
be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the
left or right, hold the transmitter higher, and
try again.
·Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See ªBattery Replacementº under
Keyless Access System Operation on page 2-4.
·Check to make sure that an electronic device such
as a cellular phone or lap top computer is not
causing interference.
·If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
quali®ed technician for service.
Keyless Access System Operation
Your vehicle has a keyless access system that
allows you to lock and unlock your doors, unlock
your trunk lid and disarm or arm your theft-deterrent
system. The range distance is as much as 100 feet
(30 m) away.
Your vehicle comes
standard with two
transmitters, and up to four
can be matched to your
vehicle. See ªMatching
Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicleº later in this
section.
Q(Lock):Press this button to lock the doors. The
light on the door will ¯ash once. If this button is pressed
twice, the doors will lock, the light will ¯ash once and
the horn will sound once.

Lockout Protection
Your vehicle can be programmed to sound the horn
three times and unlock the driver's door when both
doors are closed and there is a keyless access
transmitter inside the interior of the vehicle. When the
driver's door is reopened, the key in reminder chime will
sound continuously. The vehicle will remain locked
only when at least one transmitter has been removed
from the vehicle and both doors are closed. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-66.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keyless access
transmitter with you, open your door and set the
locks from inside or with the keyless access transmitter.
Then get out and close the door.
The vehicle can also be programmed to have the doors
lock automatically when you exit the vehicle. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-66.
Trunk
{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
come into your vehicle. You can not see or
smell CO. It can cause unconsciousness and
even death. If you must drive with the trunk lid
open or if electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the trunk lid:
·Make sure all other windows are shut.
·Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed and select the
control setting that will force outside air
into your vehicle. See Climate Control
System in the Index.
·If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the way.

Engine Exhaust on page 2-31.

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.

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.
