34 Keys, Doors, and Windows
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
your 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 when the
ignition is turned on. 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
(accessory mode, on, off), and the remote
key appears to be undamaged, try another
remote key. Or, you may try placing the
remote key in the remote key pocket
located in the center console. SeeRemote
Key Operation 015.
If the ignition mode will not change with
the other remote key or with the remote
key in the remote key pocket, your vehicle
needs service. If the ignition does change
modes, the first remote key may be faulty. See your dealer who can service the
theft-deterrent system and have a new
remote key programmed to the vehicle.
It is possible for the immobilizer system to
learn new or replacement remote keys. Up
to eight remote keys can be programmed
for the vehicle. To program additional
remote keys, see "Programming Remote
Keys to the Vehicle" under
Remote Key
Operation 015.
Do not leave the remote key or device that
disarms or deactivates the vehicle theft
system in the vehicle.

before changing lanes. Standard Mirrors
If equipped, the passenger side mirror is
convex shaped. A convex mirror surface is
curved so more can be seen from the
driver seat.

restraint.
When an occupant is in the seat, always

Reclining Seatbacks
{Warning
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even when buckled up, the seat belts
cannot do their job.
The shoulder belt will not be against
your body. Instead, it will be in front of
you. In a crash, you could go into it,
receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be there,
not at your pelvic bones. This could cause
serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle is
in motion, have the seatback upright.
Then sit well back in the seat and wear
the seat belt properly.
Do not recline the seatback in a moving
vehicle.
Manual Reclining Seatbacks
{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.
