Alarm System (Burglar Alarm System)

FEATURES

- The alarm system protects the vehicle from a theft action (unauthorized entry into the vehicle). Upon detection of such an action, it gives alarm by causing the horn to sound and the hazard warning lights to flash.
- Unauthorized entry is monitored through the switches on the doors, rear gate, and trunk lid. If any of the switches is turned ON, the system interprets it as an attempt of unauthorized entry and gives alarm warning.
- Unauthorized entry is also monitored by the impact sensor (dealer option). The system operates in the same manner as mentioned above whenever the sensor senses an abnormal impact on the vehicle.

WARNING
- When activated, the alarm system causes the hazard warning lights to flash and the horn to sound intermittently. In addition to this, the security indicator light in the combination meter lights up.
- The alarms automatically turn OFF after 30 seconds. However, they will be reactivated if the vehicle is tampered with again.
- The alarms are activated when a door, rear gate or trunk lid is opened without unlocking with the keyless entry transmitter. (When the system is set, a warning is given even if a door is opened by operating the inner door handle.)
- The alarms are also activated when an impact on vehicle body is sensed. (Only vehicles with an impact sensor, which is available as dealer option.)
- On vehicles with an impact sensor, the alarms are activated even if electrical wirings for these equipment are cut.


NOTE: For information regarding the impact sensor, refer to their installation and operating instructions.

HOW TO ARM THE SYSTEM




1. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
2. Close all the windows. Close and all doors, rear gate, and the trunk lid.
3. Push the LOCK button on the transmitter.
4. The keyless buzzer will sound once and the hazard warning lights flash once.

NOTE: The system can be set even if the windows are open.

5. Check that the security indicator light flashes. If any of the doors or the rear gate is not closed properly, lock operation will not be accomplished when the LOCK button on the transmitter is pushed and therefore the keyless buzzer will not sound nor the hazard warning lights will not flash. When setting the alarm system, activation of the keyless entry system must be confirmed by the sound of keyless buzzer and flashing of the hazard warning lights. When the door, rear gate or trunk lid is closed, they will be automatically locked and the alarm system starts working. The indicator light blinks when the system is set and starts monitoring, and continues to blink until the system is disarmed. When the security indicator lamp is blinking as (B), the system is not ready yet and the alarm will not activate when a door is opened.

HOW TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
1. Push the UNLOCK button on the transmitter.
2. The keyless buzzer will sound twice and the hazard warning lights flash twice.
3. The security indicator light turns OFF.
4. The interior light illuminates for maximum 30 seconds and then fades out. (However, if a system is set during this period, the interior light will turn OFF.)
- Insert the key into the door key cylinder and turn the key in the unlocking direction.

HOW TO STOP ALARMS
- Push a button on the transmitter. (Either of the LOCK, UNLOCK, or TRUNK buttons will work)
- Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn the key to the ON position. However, the alarm will not cease unless a registered key is used. (models with immobilizer)
- Insert the key into the ignition switch and repeat switching OFF to ON for three times. (models without immobilizer)
- Insert the key into the door key cylinder and turn the key in the unlocking direction.
