Security indicator light (Vehicle se-
curity system)
The security indicator light is located on the
instrument panel near the windshield.
The security indicator light shows the status
of the vehicle security system.
The light operates whenever the ignition
switch is in the LOCK, OFF, or ACC posi-
tion.
The vehicle security system has four
phases. For each phase the operation of the
security indicator light is different.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.(The system can be
armed even if the windows are open).
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Close the hood, trunk lid and all doors.
Lock all doors. The doors can be locked
with the key or with the keyfob.
Keyfob operation:
cPush the LOCK button on the keyfob.
All doors lock. The hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once to
indicate all doors are locked.
cWhen the LOCK button is pushed with
all doors locked, the hazard lights
flash twice and the horn beeps once
as a reminder that the doors are al-
ready locked.
The horn may or may not beep once.

ture'' later in this section.

matically shifts into the armed phase. The
SECURITY light begins to flash once ev-
ery three seconds. If, during the 30-
second pre-arm time period, the door is
unlocked by the key or the keyfob, or the
ignition key is turned to ACC or ON, the
system will not arm.
cIf the key is turned slowly when lock-
ing the door, the system may not arm.
Furthermore, if the key is turned ex-
cessively to the unlock position, the
system may be disarmed when the key
is removed. If the indicator light fails to
glow for 30 seconds, unlock the door
once and lock it again.
cEven when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
arm with all doors, hood and trunk lid
closed and locked with the ignition
key in the OFF position.

The vehicle security system will give the
following alarm:
cThe headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
cThe alarm automatically turns off afterabout 50 seconds. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by
unlocking a door or trunk lid with the key,
or by pressing the UNLOCK button on
the keyfob.

copening the door or trunk lid without
using the key or keyfob (even if the door
is unlocked by releasing the door inside
