Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers -- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handle won't open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be so obvious: You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren't locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better off whenever you drive your vehicle.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.From the outside, use your door key or remote keyless
entry transmitter, if your vehicle has this option. With
your door key, turning the key toward the rear of the
vehicle will lock the door and turning the key toward the
front of the vehicle will unlock it.
If your vehicle has a theft
-deterrent system and it is
activated, unlock the doors only with the key or remote
keyless entry system. This will avoid setting off
the alarm.
To lock the door from the
inside, slide the locking
lever rearward. To unlock
the door, slide the locking
lever forward.

2-11 Operation
The driver's door will unlock when UNLOCK is
pressed. The fuel door will also unlock when UNLOCK
is pressed, if you have the optional fuel door lock.
If UNLOCK is pressed again within five seconds, all
doors will unlock. Pressing the UNLOCK button will
also illuminate the interior lamps. See ªIlluminated
Entryº in the Index.
All doors will lock when LOCK is pressed.
The trunk will unlock when the trunk symbol is pressed
when the ignition is OFF. The trunk symbol will also work
when the ignition is on, but only while in PARK (P).
Instant Alarm
When the button with the horn symbol on the key
transmitter is pressed, the horn will sound and the
headlamps and taillamps will flash for up to one minute.
This can be turned off by pressing the instant alarm
button again or by turning the ignition to ON. If your
vehicle is equipped with the Universal Theft
-Deterrent
feature, you may also turn off the alarm by unlocking
the vehicle with a key. See ªUniversal Theft
-Deterrentº
in the Index.Personalization Features
The following list of features that are available on your
vehicle can be programmed to each driver's preference
for each of the key transmitters.
Programmable Automatic Door Locks: This feature
programs your door locks to automatically lock or
unlock when shifting in and out of PARK (P).
Security Feedback: This feature provides feedback to
the driver when the vehicle receives a command from
the key transmitter.
Delayed Locking: This feature lets the driver delay the
actual locking of the vehicle. When all doors have been
closed, the doors will lock automatically after five seconds.
For more detailed information and programming
instructions, refer to the Index for each individual
feature listed above.

4. Snap the transmitter back together tightly to be sure
no moisture can enter.
5. Test the operation of the transmitter with your
vehicle. If the transmitter does not work,
resynchronize the transmitter.
Resynchronization
After you have changed the battery in your transmitter,
or if only the instant alarm button works, the transmitter
needs to be resynchronized to the receiver. Do this by
pressing and holding both the LOCK and UNLOCK
buttons at the same time for about eight seconds. You
must be within range of the vehicle.
When the system has been resynchronized, the horn will
chirp and the exterior lamps will flash once. The system
should now operate properly.
Trunk
Trunk Lock Release
To unlock the trunk from the outside, insert the door key
and turn it.
Remote Trunk Release (Option)
If you have this option,
press the trunk release
button located below the
driver's door armrest to
release the trunk lid.
The ignition may be on or off and the transaxle must be
in PARK (P). The system also works with the remote
keyless entry system.

Universal Theft-Deterrent (Option)
If your vehicle has this option, it has a theft-deterrent
alarm system. With this system, the SECURITY light
will flash as you open the door (if your ignition is OFF).
This light reminds you to
activate the theft
-deterrent
system when leaving
your vehicle.
Activating the system:
1. Open the door.
2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch while
the door is open, or use the remote keyless entry
transmitter. The SECURITY light should come on
and stay on.
3. Close all doors. The SECURITY light should go off after
about 30 seconds and the system will then be armed.
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 with itself. See your
dealer for service.If a door or the trunk is opened without the key or
remote keyless entry transmitter, or if the door key
cylinders are damaged, the alarm will go off. It will also
go off if the trunk lock is damaged. Your vehicle's lamps
will flash and the horn will sound for one minute, then
will go off in order to save battery power.
Remember, the theft-deterrent system won't activate if
you lock the doors with a key or manual door lock. It
activates only if you use a power door lock switch while
the door is open, or the remote keyless entry transmitter.
Avoid setting off the alarm by accident.
Always unlock a door with a key, or use the remote
keyless entry system transmitter. Unlocking a door any
other way will set off the alarm.
If you set off the alarm by accident, unlock any door
with your key. You can also turn off the alarm by
pressing UNLOCK on the remote keyless entry
transmitter. The alarm won't stop if you try to unlock a
door any other way.
Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window.
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, check to
see if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown. To
replace the fuse, see ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in
the Index.
If the alarm does not sound, or the vehicle's lamps do
not flash, the vehicle should be serviced by an
authorized service center.
PASS-Key
II
Your vehicle is equipped with the PASS-Key II
(Personalized Automotive Security System)
theft
-deterrent system. PASS-Key II is a passive
theft
-deterrent system. It works when you insert or
remove the key from the ignition.
PASS
-Key II uses a resistor pellet in the ignition key
that matches a decoder in your vehicle.When the PASS
-Key II system senses that someone is
using the wrong key, it shuts down the vehicle's starter
and fuel systems. For about three minutes, the starter
won't work and fuel won't go to the engine. If someone
tries to start your vehicle again or uses another key
during this time, the vehicle will not start. This
discourages someone from randomly trying different
keys with different resistor pellets in an attempt to make
a match.
The ignition key must be clean and dry before it's
inserted in the ignition or the engine may not start. If the
engine does not start and the SECURITY light is on, the
key may be dirty or wet. Turn the ignition off.
Clean and dry the key. Wait about three minutes and try
again. If the starter still won't work, and the key appears
to be clean and dry, wait about three minutes and try
another ignition key. At this time, you may also want to
check the fuse (see ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the
Index). If the starter won't work with the other key, your
vehicle needs service. If your vehicle does start, the first
ignition key may be faulty. See your dealer or a
locksmith who can service the PASS
-Key II.

Tachometer
The tachometer shows your
engine speed in revolutions
per minute (rpm). Do not
run your engine at speeds in
the red area.
Warning Lights, Gages
and Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages that
may be on your vehicle. The pictures will help you
locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that something is
wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an
expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to
your warning lights and gages could also save you or
others from injury.Warning lights come on when there may be or is a
problem with one of your vehicle's functions. As you
will see in the details on the next few pages, some
warning lights come on briefly when you start the
engine just to let you know they're working. If you are
familiar with this section, you should not be alarmed
when this happens.
Gages can indicate when there may be or is a problem
with one of your vehicle's functions. Often gages and
warning lights work together to let you know when
there's a problem with your vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on
when you are driving, or when one of the gages shows
there may be a problem, check the section that tells you
what to do about it. Please follow this manual's advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly -- and even
dangerous. So please get to know your warning lights
and gages. They're a big help.
Your vehicle may also have a driver information system
that works along with the warning lights and gages.
