Testing the Alarm

1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window, then

get out of the vehicle, keeping the door open.

2. From outside of the vehicle, with the door open,

lock the vehicle using the power door lock or the
remote keyless entry system and close the
door. Wait 30 seconds until the SECURITY lamp
goes off.

3. Reach in and unlock the door using the manual

lock and open the door. The horn will sound and
the hazard lights will flash.

You can turn off the alarm by unlocking the driver’s door
with your key, using the unlock button on the remote
keyless entry transmitter or by starting the car with
a valid key.

If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to
see if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown. To
replace the fuse, see Fuses and Circuit Breakers on
page 5-100
. If the fuse does not need to be replaced,
you may need to have your vehicle serviced.

To reduce the possibility of theft, always arm the
theft-deterrent system when leaving your vehicle.

Valet Lockout Switch

The valet lockout switch
is located inside the
glove box.

Press the switch to ON to disable the use of the trunk,
fuel door, garage door opener and optional cellular
telephone. The remote keyless entry transmitter cannot
open the trunk if the valet lockout switch is in ON.

Press this switch to OFF to enable the use of the trunk,
fuel door, garage door opener and optional cellular
telephone.

Locking the glove box with your key will also help to
secure your vehicle.
