But what if you have to leave your ignition key? What if
you have to leave something valuable in your vehicle?

or glove box.

Content Theft-Deterrent
Your Buick is equipped
with a Content
Theft-Deterrent alarm
system. With this system,
the SECURITY light will
SECURITY
flash as you open the door
(if your ignition is off).
This light reminds you to activate the theft-deterrent
system. Were'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 stay on.
3. Close all doors. The SECURITY 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
lamps will flash and the horn will sound for 30 seconds,
then will turn off to save 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.
