VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM

The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
ignition 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 Keyless Enter-N-Go START/STOP button until the Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC) indicates that the vehicle ignition is "OFF." Push the power door
lock switch while the door is open, push the Key Fob LOCK button, or with one of the
Key Fobs located outside the vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver's and
passenger front door handles, push the Keyless Enter-N-Go LOCK button located on the
door handle.
NOTE:
After pushing the Keyless Enter-N-Go LOCK button, you must wait two seconds before you
can lock or unlock the vehicle via the door handle.
To Disarm:
• Push the Key Fob UNLOCK button or with one of the Key Fobs located outside the
vehicle and within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the driver's and passenger front door handles, grab the
Keyless Enter-N-Go door handle and enter the vehicle, then push the Keyless
Enter-N-Go START/STOP button (requires at least one valid Key Fob in the vehicle).

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.
