Testing the Alarm Do the following to test the system: 1. Make sure the trunk lid is latched. 2. Lower the window on the driver's door. 3. Manually arm the system. 4. Close the doors and wait 30 seconds. 5. Reach through the open window and manually pull the release lever on the floor. 6. Turn off the alarm by pressing the unlock button on the transmitter. If the alarm is inoperative, check to see if the horn works. If not, check the horn fuse. See Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-85. If the horn works, but the alarm doesn't go off, see your dealer. Valet Lockout Switch The valet lockout switch is located inside the glove box. Disarming the System Always use your keyless access transmitter to unlock a door either by pressing the unlock button on the transmitter or by squeezing the door handle sensor while you have the transmitter with you. Unlocking a door any other way will set off the alarm. If your alarm sounds, press the unlock button on the keyless access transmitter to disarm it. Press the switch to ON to disable the use of the trunk and convertible top. The trunk cannot be opened except by using the key if the valet lockout is on. Press the switch to OFF to enable the use of the trunk and convertible top. Locking the glove box with your key will also help to secure your vehicle. 2-18
