C. The alarm blows the horn intermittently
and flashes all exterior lights (except
high beams) for approximately three to
seven minutes, then shuts down au¬
tomatically to conserve the battery.

turbed again, the system repeats the
alarm.
E. The trunk may be opened using the key
without activating the alarm or disarm¬
ing the system.
A. If a passenger remains in the car, the
passenger should lock the door after
closing it (or use the manual lock but¬
ton) to prevent arming the system. This
permits the passenger to open the door
without activating the alarm.
B. When re-entering, if the alarm is armed
but a window happens to be open, re¬
member to unlock the door with the
key because pulling the lock knob up or
operating the power lock switch will
not disarm the system.
C. If you decide to disarm the system after
pressing the power door lock switch to
"LOCK" (before closing the door) press
the lock switch to the unlock position.
D. Locking the doors manually by using
the key or inside lock knobs will not
arm the system.
