Theft-Deterrent System Your vehicle has a theft-deterrent alarm system. The security light is located on the instrument panel cluster. If the vehicle is locked using the keyless access transmitter and the trunk lid, hood or a door is open or not closed completely, the security light will flash for 60 seconds and then turn off. At this time, the theft-deterrent system is armed but the alarm will not sound if the trunk lid, hood or door that was not closed completely is tampered with or opened. The alarm will sound for the trunk lid, hood or a door that was completely closed at the time the vehicle was locked using the keyless access transmitter. • Open the door. Lock the door with the power door If the ignition is off and a door is open, the security light will flash, reminding you to arm the theft-deterrent system. To arm the system, do one of the following: lock switch or lock button on the keyless access transmitter. The security light should flash. Close the door. The security light will stop flashing and stay on. After 30 seconds the light should turn off, the theft-deterrent system is armed. • Press the lock button on the keyless access transmitter.
