Keyfob operation:

● Push the

button on the keyfob.

All doors lock. The hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once to indicate
all doors are locked.

● When the

button is pushed with

all doors locked, the hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once as a re-
minder that the doors are already locked.

The horn may or may not beep. Refer to
“Silencing the horn beep feature” in the
“Pre-driving checks and adjustments” sec-
tion later in this manual.

4. Confirm that the

indicator light comes

on. The

light stays on for about

30 seconds. The vehicle security system is
now pre-armed. After about 30 seconds the
vehicle security system automatically shifts
into the armed phase. The

light begins

to flash once every 3 seconds. If, during the
30-second pre-arm time period, the driver’s
door is unlocked by the key or the keyfob, or
the ignition switch is placed in ACC or ON
position, the system will not arm.

If the key is turned slowly when locking

the driver’s door, the system may not
arm. Furthermore, if the key is turned
beyond the vertical position toward the
unlock position to remove the key, the
system may be disarmed when the key
is removed. If the indicator light fails to
glow for a period of time, unlock the
door once and lock it again.

Even when the driver and/or passen-

gers are in the vehicle, the system will
arm with all doors closed and locked
with the ignition switch placed in the
OFF position.

Vehicle security system activation

The vehicle security system will give the following
alarm:

● The headlights blink and the horn sounds

intermittently.

● The alarm automatically turns off after a pe-

riod of time. However, the alarm reactivates if
the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarm
can be shut off by unlocking the driver’s door
with the key or by pressing the

button

on the keyfob.

The alarm is activated by:

● opening a door without using the key or

keyfob (even if the door is unlocked by using
the inside lock knob or the power door lock
switch).

How to stop an activated alarm

The alarm stops only by unlocking the driver’s
door with the key or by pressing the

button

on the keyfob.

(for example, when interference is caused by
another registered key, an automated toll road
device or automatic payment device on the key
ring), restart the engine using the following pro-
cedures:

1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position

for approximately 5 seconds.

2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK

position, and wait approximately 10 sec-
onds.
