Main Menu Table Of Contents Security System On models with keyless access system You can also set the security system by pressing the lock button on either front door handle while carrying the keyless access remote. Once the security system is set, opening any door (without using the key or the remote transmitter/ keyless access remote), the hood, or the trunk will cause the system to alarm. It also alarms if the audio unit is removed from the dashboard or the wiring is cut. With the system set, you can still open the trunk with the remote transmitter/keyless access remote without triggering the alarm. The alarm will sound if the trunk is opened with the trunk release button on the driver's door, the trunk release handle behind the trunk pass-through cover, or the emergency trunk opener. NOTE: Use the remote transmitter/ keyless access remote to quickly check that the hood, the trunk, and all doors are closed. Push the lock button twice within 5 seconds. There should be an audible confirmation beep. Features The security system will not set if the hood, trunk, or any door is not fully closed. If the system will not set, check the door and trunk open monitor on the multi-information display (see page 11 ) to see if the doors and trunk are fully closed. Since it is not part of the monitor display, manually check the hood. Do not attempt to alter this system or add other devices to it. 381 2009 TL
