Content Theft - Deterrent System
(If Equipped)
Your vehicle’s theft - deterrent system is designed to
activate an alarm if any of the side doors or the liftgate
is forcibly unlocked or if the battery terminal is
disconnected and then reconnected while the system
is set.
The alarm will sound the horn intermittently and flash
the headlamps, turn signal lamps and interior lights. If
the driver’s or front passenger’s side doors are unlocked
forcibly, the other side doors and the liftgate will be
locked automatically.
Setting the System
To set the system, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition key to the LOCK position and
remove it.
2. Have all passengers get out of the vehicle.
3. Close and lock all the side doors and liftgate with the
key or remote keyless entry transmitter.
The indicator light located
on the instrument panel to
the left of the steering wheel
will come on when all the
side doors and liftgate are
closed and locked.
The system will be automatically set after 30
seconds. When the system is set, the indicator light
will start flashing.
4. After the indicator light starts flashing, you may
leave the vehicle.
Do not leave anyone in the vehicle when you set the
system, because unlocking the vehicle from the
inside will activate the system.
