GETTING STARTED

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM

The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and
the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ START/STOP button for unauthorized operation. While
the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and decklid
release are disabled. If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will
provide the following audible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps
and/or turn signals will flash, and the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster
will flash.
To Arm:
Push the Key Fob LOCK button.
To Disarm The System:
Push the Key Fob UNLOCK button or cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your vehicle. However, you can
create conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will give you a false alarm. If one
of the previously described arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security
Alarm will arm regardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle
Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected, the
Vehicle Security Alarm will remain armed when the battery is reconnected. The ex-
terior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle Se-
curity Alarm.

POWER DOOR LOCKS

The vehicles power door locks are activated by moving the inside door handles.
Push or pull the driver's door handle to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate when
the doors are closed.

SEAT BELT SYSTEMS

Lap/Shoulder Belts
• All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips, below your
abdomen. To remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up on the shoulder belt. To
loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A
snug seat belt reduces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in a collision.
• Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack
so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor will withdraw
any slack in the shoulder belt.
