IF possible, park in a busy, well lit area. Put your valuables in a storage area, like your trunk or glove box. Be sure to close and lock the storage area. Close all windows. Lock the glove box. Lock all doors except the driver’s. Give the valet key to the valet. Then take the master key and remote keyless entry transmitter with you.


YQW vehicle is equipped with a Content Theft-Deterrent alarm system. With this system, the SECURITY light will flash as you open the door (if your ignition is off).


This light reminds you to activate the theft-deterrent system. Here’s how to do it: I. Open the door. 2. Lock the door with the power door lock switch or the


remote keyless entry transmitter. The SECURITY light should come on and stay on.


3. Close all doors. The SECURITY light should go off


after approximately 30 seconds. The alarm is not armed until the SECURITY light goes off.


If a door is opened without the key OF the remote keyless entry transmitter, the a l m will go off. Your vehicie‘s lamps will flash and the horn will sound for 30 seconds, then will turn of€ to save battery power. Remember, the theft-deterrent system won’t activate if you !ock the doors with a key or use the manual door lock. kt activates only if you use a power door lock switch with the door open, or with the remote keyless entry transmitter. You should also remember that you can start your vehicle with the correct ignition key if the a l m has been set off. Were’s how to avoid setting off the d a m by accident:


I€ you don’t want to activate the theft-deterrent system, the vehicle should be locked with the door key after the doors are closed.


e Always U ~ I Q C ~


a door with a key, or use the remote


keyless entry transmitter. Unlocking a door any other way will set of€ the alarm.


If you set off the alarm by accident, unlock any door with your key. You can also turn off the a l m by pressing UNLOCK on the remote keyless entry transmitter. The a i m won’t stop if you try to unlock a door any other way.


The a E m can be tested by following these steps: 1. From inside the vehicle, roll down foe driver’s


window and open the driver’s door.


2. Activate the system by locking the doors with the power door lock switch while the door is open, or with the remote keyless entry transmitter.


3. Get out of the car, close the door and wait €or the


SECURITY light to go out.


4. Then reach in through the window, unioclc the door with the manual door lock and open the door. This shouhd set off the altum.


If the alarm does not sound when it s h d d but the vehicle‘s iiamps flash, check to see if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown. TQ replace the fuse, see “Fuses and Circrrit Breakers“ in the Index. HE the alarm does not sound or the vehicle’s Bamps dc not flash, the vehicle should be serviced by an authorized service center.


Your vehicle is equipped with the PASS-Key III (Persondized Automotive Security System) theft-deterrent system. PASS-Key HHI is a passive theft-deterrent system. This means you don’t have to do anything different to arm or disarm the system. It works when YOU insert or remove the key from the ignition.


Your PASS-Key III system operates on a radio frequency subject to Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry Canada. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (I) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.


This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: ( I ) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Changes or modifications to this system by other than an authorized service facility could void authorization to use this equipment. PASS-Key HI1 uses a radio frequency transponder in the key that matches a decoder in your vehicle. When the PASS-Key III system senses that someone is using the wrong key, it shuts down the vehicle’s starter and fuel systems. The starter will not work and he8 will stop being delivered to the engine. Anyone using a trial-and-error method to start the vehicle will be discouraged because of the high number of electrical key codes. When trying to start the vehicle if the engine does not start and the SECURITY light comes on, the key may have a damaged transponder. Turn the ignition off and try again.


If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to be undamaged, try mother ignition key. At this time, you may also want to check the fuse (see “Fuses and Circuit Breakers’‘ in the Index). If the engine still does not start with the other key, your vehicle needs service. If your vehicle does start, the € k t key may be faulty. See your dealer or a Iocksrnith who can service the PASS-Key IIH tc have a new key Bade. It is possible for the PASS-Key IIP decoder to learn the replacement key. Up to transponder value of a new ten additional keys may be programmed for the vehicle. This procedure is €or learning additional keys only. If all the currently programed keys are lost or do not operate, you must see your dealer or a locksmith who can service PASS-Key HI1 to have keys made and programmed to the system. See your dealer or 2 locksmith who can service PASS-Key III to get 2 new key blank that is a cut exactly as a current black colored driver’s key that operztes the system. Do not use 2 gray colored valet key for this procedure.


To program the new key: 1.


Insert the cumrent driver’s key (black in color) i ~ * the ignition and start the engine. If the engine wiil not start see your dealer for service. After the engine has started, turn the key to the off position, and remove the key. Insert the key to be progrmmed and turn it to the m n position within ten seconds of removing the previous key. off once the The SECURITY telltale iight will key has been programmed. It may not be apparent that the SECURITY light went on due to how quickly the key is programmed. Repeat steps 1 through 4 if additional keys are to be programmed.

ff you are ever driving and the SECURITY iight comes or; and stays on, you will be able to restart your engine if you turn it off. Your BASS-Key III system, however, is not working properly and must be serviced by your dealer. You vehicle is not protected by the PASS-Key III system at this time. If you lose or damage a PASS-Key I11 key, see your dealer or a locksmith who can service PASS-Key HIT to have a new key made.


NOTICE:


With the ignition key in the ignition switch, you can turn the switch to five different positions.


I i v


i 2- E


ACCESSORY (A): In this position you can operate your eiectricall power accessories. Press in the ignition switch as you turn the top of it toward you.


LOCK @I: This is the only position from which YOU can remove the key. This position locks YOU igition, steering wheel and transaxle. It’s a theft-deterrent feature. OFF (C): This position lets YOU turn ofif the engine but still turn the steering wheel. It doesn’t lock the steering wrlhee1 like LOCK and it doesn’t send m y electrical power to the accessories. The instrument panel cluster will remain powered in OFF to illarminate the gear s W t indicator. The cluster will also activate the parking brake fight when the parking brake is set. Use OW if you must have your vehicle in motion while the engine is not mnanaing. RUN (D): This is the position that the switch returns to after you start YSUP engine and release the switch. This is &e p ~ s i s i ~ n for driving. Even when the engine is not running, you can use RUN to operate your electrical power accessories anad t~ display some instrument panel w d n g lights. START (E): This position starts your engine. When the engine starts, release the key. The ignition switch will return to RUN for ~a~rrrnal driving.


Retained Acces§ory Power After you turn the ignition off md even remove the key, you will still have electrical power to such accessories as the radio, astroroof a d power windows for up to 10 minutes. Power is shut off if you open a door.

Move your shift lever to BARK (B) or NEUTRAL (N). Your engine won’t start in any other position -- that’s a safety feature. To restart when you’re already moving, use NEUTRAL (N) only.


1 NOTICE:


Don9t try to shift to PARK (a) if your h i c k is moving. If YOU do, YOU could damage the transaxle. Shift to PARK (P) only when your vehicfe is stopped.


8 . Without pushing the accelerator pedal, turn your


ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let go of the key. The idle speed will go down as your engine gets wann.


NOTICE:


Holding your key in START €or longer than 15 seconds at a time will cause your battery to be drained much sooner. And the excessive heat can damage your starter motor.


2. if it doesn’t start right away, hold your key in


START for about three to five seconds at a time until your engine starts. Wait about 15 seconds between each try to help avoid draining your battery or damaging your starter.


3. If your engine still won’t start (or starts but then


stops), it could be flooded with too much gasoline. Try pushing your accelerator pedal all the way to the floor and holding it there as you hold the key in START for about three seconds. If the vehicle starts briefly but then stops again, do the same thing, but this time keep the pedal down for five or six seconds. This clears the extra gasoline from the engine. After waiting about 15 seconds, repeat the normal starting procedure.


NOTICE:


Your engine is designed to work with the electronics in your vehicle. If you add electrical parts OF accessories, you could change the way the engine operates. Before adding electrical equipment, check with your dealer. If you don’t, your engine might not perform properly. If yon ever have to have your vehicle towed, see the past of this manual that tells how to do it without damaging your vehicle. See “Towing Your Vehicle” in the Index.

Plugging t.he cord into an ungrounded outlet could cause an electrical shock. Also, the wrong kind of extension cord could overheat and cause a fire. You could be seriously injured. Plug the cord into a properly grounded three-prong 110-volt AC outlet. If the cord won’t reach, use a heavy-duty three-prong extension cord rated for at least 15 amps.


4. Before starting the engine, be sure to unplug and


store the cord as it was before to keep it away from moving engine parts. If you don’t, it could be damaged.


CAUTION:


I& is dangerous to get out of your vehick if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) with the parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll. Don’t leave your vehicle when the engine is running unless you have to. If you have left the engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly. You or others could be injured. TQ be sure your vehicle won’t move, even when you’re on fairly level ground, always set y 0 w parking brake and move the shift lever to PARK (P). See ‘“Shifting Hnt~ PARK (P)” in the Index. If you’re pulling a trailer, see “Towing a Trailer” in the Index.


Wow long shodd YOU keep the coolant heater plugged in? The answer depends on the outside temperature, the kind of oil you have, and some other things. Instead of trying t~ list everything here, we ask that you contact your dealer in the area where you’ll be parking p u r vehicle. The dealer c m give you the best advice for that particdar area.


Y0mr automatic transaxle has a shift lever located on the steering column. There we several different positions for your shift lever. PARK (PI: This Bocks your front wheels. It’s the best position t~ we when YOU start your engine because p l ~ r vehicle can’t move easily.


2-24


Ensure the shift lever is fuily in PARK (PI range before starting the engine. Your vehicle has a brake-transaxle shift interlock. You have to fully apply your regular brzkes before you can shift from PARK (P) when the ignition key is in RUN. If you cannot shift out of PARK (B), ease pressure on the shift lever -- push the shift lever all the way into PARK (P) as you rnaintain brake appiic~tion. Then move the shift lever into the gear you wish. See “Shifting Out of PARK (E’)” in the Index. REVERSE (R): Use this gear to back up.


NEUTRAL (N): In this position, your engim doesn’t connect with the wheels. To restart when you’re already moving, use NEUTRAL (N) only. Also, use NEUTRAL (N) when your vehicle is being towed.


Shifting out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL fN) while your engine is “racing” (running at high speed) is dangerous. Unless your foot is firmly on the brake pedal, your vehicle could move very rapidly. You could lose control and hit people or objects. Don’t shift out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) while your engine is racing.


Shift to REVERSE (R) oanhy after

1 NOTICE:


To rock your vehicle back and forth to get out of snow, sand without damaging your transaxle, see ice “Stuck: In Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow” in the Index.


Damage to your transaxle caused by shifting out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) with the engine racing isn’t covered by your warranty.


AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE (@):This positionis for normal driving. Pf you need more power for passing, and you’re:


Going less than about 35 mph (55 kmh), push your accelerator pedal about halfway down.


e Going about 35 mph (55 kmh) or more, push the


accelerator all the way down.


You’U shift down to the next gear and have more power. THIRD (3): This position is also used for normal driving, however, it offers more power and Bower fuel economy than AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE (0). Here are some times you might choose THIRD (3) instead of AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE (a):


Qb When towing a trailer, so there is less shifting


between gears, or When going down a steep hill.


SECQND (2): This position gives you nore power but lower fuel economy. YQU can use SECOND (2) on hills. It can help control your speed as you go down steep mountain roads, but then you would also want to use your brakes off and on.


NOTICE:


Don’t drive in SECOND (2) for more than 5 miles (8 km), or at speeds over 55 mph (88 km/h), or you can damage your transaxle. Use AUTOMATIC OVERDRIVE (0) or THIRD (3) as much as possible. Don’t shift into SECOND (2) unless you are going slower than 65 mph (105 km/h), or you can damage your engine.


FIRST (I): This position gives you even more power (but lower fuel economy) than SECOND (2). You can use it on very steep hills, or in deep snow or mud. If the selector lever is put in FIRST ( I >, the transaxle won’t shift into first gear until the vehicle is going slowHy enough.


If your hplrt wheels can’t rotate, don’t try to drive. This might happen if YOU were stuck in very deep sand OF mud or were up against a solid object. You could damage your transaxle. Also, if you stop when going uphill, don’t hold your vehicIe there with only the accelerator pedal. This could overheat and damage the transaxle. Use ysur brakes or shift into BARK (P)
