Vehicle Security
This vehicle has theft-deterrent features; however, they do not make the vehicle impossible to steal.
Vehicle Alarm System
This vehicle has a anti-theft alarm system.
The indicator light, on the instrument panel near the windshield, indicates the status of the system:
Off: Alarm system is disarmed.
On Solid: Vehicle is secured during the delay to arm the system.

Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent system.
The system does not have to be manually armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically immobilized when the key is removed from the ignition.
The system is automatically disarmed when the vehicle is started with the correct key. The key uses a transponder that matches an immobilizer control unit in the vehicle and automatically disarms the system. Only an authorized key starts the vehicle. The vehicle may not start if the key is damaged.
The security light in the instrument cluster comes on if there is a problem with arming or disarming the theft-deterrent system.
When trying to start the vehicle, the security light comes on briefly when the ignition is turned on.
If the engine does not start and the security light stays on, there is a problem with the system. Turn the ignition off and try again.
If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to be undamaged or the light continues to stay on, try another ignition key. If the engine does not start with the other key, the vehicle needs service. If the vehicle does start, the first key may be damaged. See your dealer who can service the theft-deterrent system and have a new key made.

Warning
A convex mirror can make things, like other vehicles, look farther away than they really are. If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you could hit a vehicle on the right. Check the inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before changing lanes.
Manual Mirrors
The passenger side mirror is convex shaped. A convex mirror's surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver seat.
If equipped, there are adjustment controls next to each mirror.

Express Window Operation
This vehicle may have windows with an express-up or down feature. This feature allows the window to be lowered or raised without holding the switch. Passenger side and rear windows only have express-down.

Obstacle Detection Feature
If equipped with express-up, and an object is in the path of the window when closing, the window will stop at the obstruction and auto-reverse to a preset factory position. Weather conditions such as severe cold and/ or ice may also cause the window to auto-reverse. The window will return to normal operation once the obstruction or condition is removed.
If conditions prevent the window from closing and the window continues to auto-reverse, it is possible to close the window with the ignition in ON/RUN by holding the window switch in the partially or fully pulled up position. Release of the switch from the partially pulled up position will cause the window to stop. Release of the switch from the fully pulled up position will activate the express-up and related obstacle detection features.

ACCESSORY or ON/RUN, or when RAP is active, close all doors.
