SOS Post-Crash Alert System

• Activates the hazard flashers and sounds the horn
after a crash where the airbags deploy
• Sounding the horn and flashing the hazards makes
the vehicle easier to locate if the accident happens
off the roadway
• System operates until deactivated or battery power
is depleted
(1) SOS hardware may become damaged or the battery may lose power in a crash, which could prevent operation. Not all crashes will activate an airbag.

SecuriLock Passive Anti-theft System
• Requires an electronically encoded ignition key (with
billions of possible codes) to start the vehicle
• Designed to help prevent the engine from being
started unless a coded key programmed to the
vehicle is used
Active Anti-theft System
• Engages when locking and arming the vehicle with
the remote transmitter or power door lock switch
with a door open
• When all doors are closed, the system monitors
doors, hood, trunk, interior motion and vehicle
inclination
• Inclination sensor helps prevent tow-away thefts
• Interior motion sensor helps prevent "smash-and-
grab" break-ins
• Includes a separate alarm sounder plus the
vehicle horn
• Also has a 60-amp-hour battery to sound the
alarm longer
• Locking the vehicle with the ignition key in the driver's
door arms the doors, hood and trunk, but blocks the
motion and inclination sensors; use this method if
(1)
interior motion is expected, during vehicle transport
or when hoisting
• All windows must be closed for proper motion-
sensing performance
