system. To activate it do the following:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch or
remote keyless entry system. The SECURITY light
should come on and stay on.3. Close all doors. The SECURITY light should go
off after about 30 seconds. The security system is not
armed until the SECURITY light is off. If the
SECURITY light stays on or flashes when the
ignition is turned on, there is a problem with the
system and the vehicle should be serviced.
If the SECURITY light comes on for one minute
and then shuts off while the ignition is on, the security
system has detected a problem. See your dealer
for service.

or remote keyless entry transmitter. You should also
remember that you can start your vehicle with the
correct ignition key if the alarm has been set off.

Here's how to avoid setting off the alarm by accident:

If you don't want to activate the theft
-deterrent
system, lock the door either using a key or the
manual door lock switch.

Always unlock a door with a key, or use the remote
keyless entry system. Unlocking a door any other
way will set off the alarm.

door with your key.
You can also turn off the alarm by pressing the
unlock symbol on the remote keyless entry transmitter.
The alarm won't stop if you try to unlock a door
any other way.
Testing the Alarm
The alarm can be tested by following these steps:
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the driver's
window and open the driver's door.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with the
power door lock switch while the door is open,
or with the remote keyless entry transmitter.
3. Get out of the car, close the door and wait for
the SECURITY light to go out.
4. Then reach in through the window, unlock the
door with the manual door lock and open the door.
This should set off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, but the
vehicle's lamps flash, check to see if the horn works.
The horn fuse may be blown. See ªFuses and Circuit
Breakersº in the Index.
If the alarm does not sound, or the vehicle's lamps
