Security System
The security system helps to protect
your car and valuables from theft.
The horn sounds, the headlights pop
up, and all the exterior lights flash if
someone attempts to break into your
car or remove the radio. The system
alarms continue for two minutes
unless you turn it off manually. To
turn the system off, unlock either
door with the key.
The security system sets automati-
cally fifteen seconds after you lock
the doors, hood, rear window and
trunk. For the system to activate, you
must lock the doors from the outside
with the key, lock tab, or door lock
switch (see page 49 ). The security
system light next to the driver's door
lock starts blinking immediately to
show you the system is setting itself.
Once the security system is set,
opening either door (without the
key), the hood, or the rear window
will cause it to alarm. It also alarms if
the radio is removed from the dash-
board or the wiring is cut.
With the system set, you can still
open the trunk with the master key
without triggering the alarm. The
alarm will sound if the trunk lock is
forced or smashed, or the trunk is
opened with the release button on
the driver's door.
The security system does not set if
the hood, rear window, trunk, or
either door is not latched completely.
If the system will not set, check the
Door and Lamp Monitor on the
instrument panel (see page
33 ), to
see if the doors, rear window, and
trunk are fully closed. Since it is not
monitored, manually check the hood.
