Controls and features Theft indicator The theft indicator in the instrument cluster will operate as follows: • When the ignition is OFF, the theft indicator will flash briefly every two seconds to indicate the anti-theft system is protecting your vehicle. • When the ignition is turned to ON or START, the theft indicator will light for three seconds and then go out. If the theft indicator stays on for an extended period of time or flashes rapidly, have the system serviced by your dealership or a qualified technician. Programming spare SecuriLockி keys Spare coded keys can be purchased from your dealership and programmed to your anti-theft system (up to a total of eight keys). Your dealership can program your new coded key(s) to your vehicle or you can do it yourself using the following simple procedure. To program a new coded key yourself, you will need two previously programmed coded keys (keys that already operate your vehicle's engine). If two previously programmed coded keys are not available (one or both of your original keys were lost or stolen), you must bring your vehicle to your dealership to have the spare coded key(s) programmed. Procedure to program spare SecuriLockி keys to your vehicle New coded keys must have the correct mechanical key cut for your vehicle. Conventional (non-coded) keys cannot be programmed to your vehicle. You will need to have two previously programmed coded keys and the new unprogrammed SecuriLock௢ key readily accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure. Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin. 1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition and turn the ignition from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON for at least one second). 2. Turn ignition to OFF and remove the first coded key from the ignition. 3. Within five seconds of turning the ignition to OFF, insert the second previously programmed coded key into the ignition and turn the ignition from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON for at least one second but no more than five seconds). 79
