WARNING!
• Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior
heat build-up may cause serious injury
or death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation. Al-
ways remove the key from the ignition and
lock all the doors when leaving the vehicle
unattended.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver's door when the key is in
the ignition and the ignition switch position
is STOP/OFF/LOCK sounds a signal to remove
the key.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF
EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the ve-
hicle doors and ignition for unauthorized op-
eration. When the vehicle security alarm is
activated, interior switches for door locks are
disabled. The system provides both audible
and visible signals. For the first three min-
utes, the horn will sound, and the turn signal
lights will flash. For an additional 15 min-
utes, only the turn signal lights will flash.
To Arm The System
To arm the system, the vehicle security alarm
will set when you use the key fob to lock the
doors. If a door or the hood is not properly
shut, the alarm system will not be armed.
To Disarm The System
Use the key fob to unlock the door and disarm
the system.
The vehicle security alarm will also disarm if
a programmed Sentry Key is inserted into the
ignition switch. To exit the alarming mode,
push the key fob unlock button, or insert a
programmed Sentry Key into the ignition
switch.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle
security alarm will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will
sound. If this occurs, disarm the vehicle
security alarm.
Security System Manual Override
The vehicle security alarm will not arm/
disarm if you lock/unlock the doors using the
manual door lock plunger.
SEATS
Seats are a part of the Occupant Restraint
System of the vehicle.
