Content Theft-Deterrent System (If Equipped) With the content theft-deterrent system, if anyone damages or enters your vehicle while the system is armed, an alarm will sound and your headlamps will flash for two minutes. To customize these features to your preference, see "Programmable Modes." Programmable Modes Your vehicle can be programmed to one of the following modes: Mode 1: Damage Detection with Reduced Sensitivity (If anyone seriously damages the vehicle, tampers with the trunk lock or opens a door while the content theft-deterrent system is armed, an alarm will sound and the headlamps will flash for up to two minutes). Mode 2: Damage Detection Off (If anyone tampers with the trunk lock or opens a door while the content theft-deterrent system is armed, an alarm will sound and the headlamps will flash for up to two minutes.) Mode 3: All Off (The content theft-deterrent system is always disarmed.) Mode 4: Damage Detection with Normal Sensitivity (If anyone damages the vehicle, tampers with the trunk lock or opens the door while the content theft-deterrent system is armed, an alarm will sound and the headlamps will flash for up to two minutes.) The vehicle comes with this feature set in Mode 4. To change the mode do the following: 1. Follow the instructions for "Entering Programming Mode" listed previously. 2. Turn the parking lamps on, then off. 3. Count the number of chimes you hear. The number of chimes tells you which mode the vehicle is set for. You change the mode by turning the parking lamps on, then off again. 4. Repeat Step 2 until you hear the number of chimes that matches the number of the mode you want. The mode you selected is now set. You can either exit the programming mode by following the instructions earlier in this section or program the next feature available on your vehicle. 2-20
