Content Theft-Deterrent System
(If Equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with a content
theft
- deterrent alarm system. Once armed, the system
will go off if someone tries to enter the vehicle without
using the remote keyless entry transmitter or the correct
key, or when someone turns the ignition on with an
incorrect key. The horn will sound, and your vehicle’s
headlamps will flash for about two minutes.
Programmable Modes
Mode 1: Not Used
Mode 2: Content Theft On (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: Content Theft Off (The content theft - deterrent
system is always disarmed.)
Mode 4: Not Used
When your vehicle was shipped from the factory,
it was programmed to Mode 2. The mode to which
your vehicle was programmed may have been changed
since it left the factory. To determine the mode to which
your vehicle is programmed or to program your vehicle
to a different 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.
(If you do not wish to change the current mode, you
can either exit the programming mode by following
the instructions earlier in this section or program the
next feature available on your vehicle.)
4. Turn the parking lamps on, then off again to change
the current mode.
5. Repeat Step 4 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.
