Keys and Locks The ceiling light (if the ceiling light switch is in the center position) will come on when you press the UNLOCK button. If you do not open any door, the light stays on for about 10 seconds, then fades out. If you relock the doors with the remote transmitter before 10 seconds have elapsed, the light will go off immediately. You cannot lock the doors with the remote transmitter if any door is not fully closed or the key is in the ignition switch. If you unlock the doors with the remote transmitter, but do not open any of the doors within 20 seconds, the doors automatically relock and the security system sets. To open the trunk, push the Trunk Release button for approximately one second. The trunk will not open if the key is in the ignition switch. Panic Mode Panic mode allows you to remotely activate your car's security system to attract attention. When activated, the horn will sound, and the exterior lights will flash, for about 30 seconds. To activate panic mode, press and hold the PANIC button for about two seconds. To cancel Panic mode before 30 seconds, press any button on the remote transmitter. You can also turn the ignition switch to ON (II). 76 Instruments and Controls
