If the key has been successfully programmed it will start the vehicle’s
engine and the theft indicator light will illuminate for three seconds and
then go out.

If the key was not successfully programmed, it will not start your
vehicle’s engine and the theft indicator light will flash on and off, or stay
on for more than three seconds. If failure repeats, bring your vehicle to
your authorized dealer to have the new key(s) programmed.

To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat this procedure
from Step 1 for each additional key.

PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

The perimeter anti-theft system will warn you in the event of an
unauthorized entry to your vehicle.

If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensure ALL remote entry transmitters are taken to the authorized
dealer to aid in troubleshooting.

Arming the system

When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
park/turn lamps and will sound the horn.

The system is ready to arm whenever the key is removed from the
ignition. Either of the following actions will prearm the alarm system:
• Press the

control on the remote entry transmitter.

• Open a door and press the power door lock control to lock all the

doors, and then close the door.

Disarming the system

You can disarm the system by any of the following actions:
• Unlock the doors by pressing the

control on your remote entry

transmitter.

• Unlock the doors with a key. Turn the key full travel (toward the front

of the vehicle) to ensure the alarm disarms.

• Turn the ignition to the 3 (ON) position with a programmed coded

ignition key.

Triggering the anti-theft system

The armed system will be triggered if any door, trunk or the hood is
opened without using the key or the remote entry transmitter.
