System (Option)
If your vehicle has this option, it has a theft
alarm system. Once armed, the system will sound
the horn and flash the parking lamps if the vehicle is
broken into.

Arming the System

The alarm system can be armed to detect break
locking your vehicle with the remote keyless entry
transmitter or by locking the doors with the power door
lock switch.
Passive arming is also available if you would like the
system to arm all by itself after the doors have been
closed for a short time. When the system is armed, a red
light located on top of the instrument panel will flash
briefly once every two seconds. If you return to your
vehicle and the red light is flashing two brief flashes
every two seconds, the system is armed and the shock
sensor had triggered a two minute alarm. If the red light
is flashing three times every two seconds, the system is
armed and there was an intrusion that sounded the
alarm. Horn chirps and parking lamp flashes can be
customized to your preference. See "Feature
Customization" in the Index.
