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. However, there are ways you

can help.

Content Theft-Deterrent

Your vehicle may be equipped with a content

theft-deterrent alarm system.

With this system, the

security light will ﬂash as

you open the door, with the

ignition off, to let you

know that you are

activating the system.

This message reminds you to activate the theft-deterrent

system. Here’s how to do it:

1. Open the door.

2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch or

the remote keyless entry transmitter. The security

light should come on and ﬂash. If using the

remote keyless entry transmitter, the door does not

need to be open.

If the delayed locking feature is active, the alarm

will not be activated until all doors are closed

and the security light goes off.

3. Close all doors. The security light will stop ﬂashing

and stay solid. The light should go off after

approximately 30 seconds. The alarm is not armed

until the security light goes off.

If a door is opened without the key or the remote

keyless entry transmitter, the alarm will go off. Your

vehicle’s headlamps will ﬂash and the horn will sound for

about two minutes, then will turn off to save the

battery power.

Remember, the theft-deterrent system won’t activate if

you lock the doors with a key or use the manual

door lock. It activates only if you use a power door lock

switch with the door open, or with the 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, the vehicle should be locked with the door

key

after

the doors are closed.

• Always unlock a door with a key, or use the remote

keyless entry transmitter. Unlocking a door any

other way will set off the alarm if the system

has been armed.
