Security System - Honda 2010 Insight Owner's Manual

The security system helps to protect
your vehicle and valuables from theft.
The horn sounds and a combination
of headlights, parking lights, side
marker lights and taillights flash if
someone attempts to break into your
vehicle or remove the audio unit.
This alarm continues for 2 minutes,
then the system resets. To reset an
activated system before the 2
minutes have elapsed, unlock the
driver's door with the key or use the
remote transmitter.
The security system sets
automatically 15 seconds after you
lock the doors, hood, and the hatch.
For the system to activate, you must
lock the doors and the hatch from
the outside with the key, driver's
lock tab, door lock master switch, or
remote transmitter. The security
system indicator on the instrument
panel starts blinking immediately to
show you the system is setting itself.
SECURITY SYSTEM INDICATOR
Once the security system is set,
opening any door, the hatch, or the
hood without using the key or the
remote transmitter, will cause the
alarm to activate. It will also activate
if the radio is removed from the
dashboard or the wiring is cut.
The alarm will also be activated if a
passenger inside the locked vehicle
turns the ignition switch on.

Security System

The security system will not set if
the hood, hatch, or any door is not
fully closed. If the system will not set,
check the door and hatch open
indicator on the instrument panel
and multi-information display (see
page 12 ) to see if the doors and
hatch are fully closed. Since it is not
part of the monitor display, manually
check the hood.
NOTE: To see if the system is set
after you exit the vehicle, press the
LOCK button on the remote
transmitter within 5 seconds. If the
system is set, the horn will beep
once.
Do not attempt to alter this system
or add other devices to it.
