Acura 2011 RL - Manual (Page 321)

The security system helps to protect
your vehicle and valuables from theft.
The horn sounds and a combination
of headlights, parking/side marker
lights, and taillights flash if someone
attempts to break into your vehicle
or remove the audio unit. This alarm
continues for 2 minutes, then the
system resets. To reset an activated
system before the 2 minutes have
elapsed, unlock either front door
with the remote or the built-in key.
Once the security system is set,
opening any door or the hood
without using the built-in key or the
remote will cause it to alarm. It also
alarms if the audio unit is removed
from the dashboard or the audio
system wiring is cut. The security system automatically
sets 15 seconds after you lock the
doors, close the hood, and close the
trunk. For the system to activate,
you must lock the doors from the
outside with the remote, built-in key,
lock tab, or master door lock switch.
The security system indicator on the
instrument panel starts blinking
immediately to show you the system
is setting itself.
With the system set, you can still
open the trunk with the remote
without triggering the alarm. The
alarm will sound if the trunk lock is
forced, or the trunk is opened with
the trunk release button on the
driver’s door or the emergency trunk
opener.
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 instrument panel (see
page
) to see if the doors and
trunk are fully closed. Since it is not
part of the monitor display, manually
check the hood.
Use the 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.
Do not attempt to alter this system
or add other devices to it.
