Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal.
Content Theft-Deterrent
The vehicle has a content theft-deterrent alarm system.
A red light located on top
of the instrument panel,
toward the center of
the vehicle and near
the windshield, will ash
slowly when the system
is armed.
The theft-deterrent alarm system needs to be activated
through the Driver’s Information Center (DIC). See “Theft
Deterrent” under the Personal Programming Mode
Screens inDIC Controls and Displays (Base Level DIC)
on page 3-52orDIC Controls and Displays (Uplevel DIC

doors will not unlock with the power door lock switch. The
remote alarm will sound if someone tampers with the
trunk or enters the vehicle without using the remote
keyless entry transmitter or key to unlock the doors. The
horn will sound and the headlamps will ash for up to
two minutes. The system will also cut off the fuel supply,
preventing the vehicle from being driven.
