theft
deterrent
system
The theft deterrent system (on cars so equipped) is
controlled by the ignition switch and a selector
switch located in the top panel of the glove com·
partment. A label inside the glove compartment
door indicates the "ARM ENABLE" and "ARM
PREVENT" selector positions.
If
activated, the
alarm intermittently operates the car's horn and
parking, tail, and side marker lights.
SYSTEM OPERATION
• With ignition on, set deterrent system
selector (in glove compartment) to "ARM
ENABLE" position and lock steering column.
The system "arms" in 1-1/2 to 2 minutes.
If
a
car door is opened within this period and left
open beyond normal arming time, the system
arms aher the door is closed.
• When armed, the system immediately sounds
horns and flashes lights intermittently for
three to seven minutes if hood, glow com·
partment or trunk
is
opened. Also use of
most electrical systems that operate with igni-
tion off such brake lights, headlights, hazard
flasher, etc., will cause immediate activation.
Opening any car door or switching on any
courtesy light activates the system after
approximately 15 seconds delay. This delay
period is sufficient for the driver 10 enter the
car and disarm the system.
• "0 ISA RMING" requires unlocking the
ignition switch and turning it to the RUN
posjtion (ignition on) within 15 seconds after
opening a door. Switching the deterrent
system selector to "ARM PREVENT" does
not disarm the system when armed, but
instead activates hom and lights immediately.

selector may be left in "ARM ENABLE".
• The system may be continuously prevented
from arming by switching the selector to
"ARM PREVENT" any time the ignition
sWitch is in the RUN position or within 30
seconds after turning ignition off.
