alarming system before the 2
minutes have elapsed, unlock the

doors, hood, and trunk. For the
system to activate, you must lock the
doors f rom the outside with the key,

open the trunk with the master key
(U.S. LX model) or the remote
transmitter (U.S. EX, EX-L and Si
models) without triggering the alarm. The alarm will sound if the trunk
