Theft-Deterrent System

If the theft-deterrent system detects an

inappropriate entry into the vehicle,

which could result in the vehicle or its

contents being stolen, the alarm alerts

the surrounding area of an abnormality

by sounding the horn and 

fl

ashing the

hazard warning lights.

The system will not function unless it's

properly armed. So when you leave the

vehicle, follow the arming procedure

correctly.
