Testing the Alarm

From inside the vehicle, roll down your window,
then get out of your vehicle, keeping the door open.
From outside the vehicle with the door open, lock
the vehicle using the power door lock or the Keyless
Entry System and close the door.
Once the interior lamps are off, reach in and unlock
the door using the manual lock. Open the door and
the horn will sound and your headlamps will flash.
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 "Fuses and Circuit Breakers" in the Index.
To reduce the possibility of theft, always arm the
Theft-Deterrent System when leaving your vehicle.

Your vehicle is equipped
with the PASS-Key I1
(Personalized Automotive
Security System)
theft-deterrent system.
PASS-Key I1 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 1 1 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.
