126Battery SaverWhen the ignition is turned off, the vehicle will
turn off battery voltage to the courtesy lamps after
10 minutes and the demand lamps after 30
minutes.
This will prevent draining of the battery if those
lights have been left on inadvertently or if a door is

keypad is used, the remote entry transmitter is
used, any door is opened, the trunk is opened, or

is pushed.The PANIC alarm and the Anti-Theft
alarm are two separate features.Both the
anti-theft alarm and the PANIC feature can be

only the Anti-Theft alarm will cause the alarm
indicator light (located in the center of the
instrument cluster) to flash on and off.
q
only the Anti-Theft alarm will prevent the
engine from starting.
