Ultrasonic Sensor
(For some types)
ULTRASONIC SENSORS
The ultrasonic sensor is only
activated when the security system
is set by the key or the remote
transmitter. It monitors the interior
of the vehicle and activates the alarm
if someone intrudes into the
passenger compartment through a
window, or moves in the
compartment. With the security
system set, only the ultrasonic
sensor may activate.
If you set the security system with
the windows open, the ultrasonic
sensor may activate the alarm
unexpectedly when the system
senses strong vibrations on the
vehicle or loud sound.
You can set the security system
without activating the ultrasonic
sensor. Pull the driver's outside door
handle and pull the lock tab rearward.
Release the handle, then close the
door. The security system indicator
on the instrument panel comes on
for 3 seconds, then starts blinking.
Security System (For some types)
Whether the ultrasonic sensor is
activated or not, the security system
can only be turned off by the remote
transmitter, not the key.
