3. To reassemble the transmitter case, snap two halves

halves. Test transmitter operation.
VEHICLE THEFT ALARM Ð IF EQUIPPED
The system monitors the doors, trunk key cylinder(Fleet
Vehicles Only), trunk latch(Regular Production Ve-
hicles Only), and ignition for unauthorized operation.
If something triggers the alarm, the system will signal for
about 18 minutes. For the first 3 minutes the horn will
sound and the headlights, park/turn signal lights, tail
lights and the indicator light in the cluster will flash.
Then the exterior lights will flash for another 15 minutes.
If the monitored system which triggered the alarm is
deactivated, the alarm will continue to sound until 3
minutes of alarm time is reached. If the monitored system
which triggered the alarm is deactivated after the alarm
has been on for 3 minutes, the alarm will shut off
immediately.
To set the alarm:
1. Remove the keys from the ignition switch and get out
of the vehicle.
2. Lock the door using either the door key, power door
lock switch, or the Keyless Entry Transmitter and close all
doors.
3. The indicator light in the instrument cluster will flash
rapidly for 16 seconds. This shows that the system is
arming. During this period, if a door is opened, the
ignition switch is turned on, or the power door locks are
unlocked in any manner, the system will automatically
disarm. If the light comes on but does not flash, the
system is arming but there is a problem in the trunk
circuit. After 16 seconds the indicator light will flash
slowly. This shows that the system is fully armed.
Vehicles equipped with the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System can be safely started with a valid key. A valid key
is one that is programmed to that particular vehicle. A
valid key will disarm the system, an invalid key will
trigger the alarm.
