Security system  
3. Secure the hood in the open position by inserting  
the support rod into the hole.  
To prevent vehicle theft, this system is designed to  
sound an alarm if any side door, trunk lid/tailgate,  
or hood is forcibly unlocked or opened, or the  
battery terminals are disconnected and then  
reconnected, or the cable is cut sirens or when  
someone breaks into the vehicle while the vehicle is  
locked.  
Before closing the hood, visually check that you have  
not forgotten any tools, rags, etc. in the engine  
compartment, and return the support rod to the holder -  
this will prevent rattling. Then lower the hood and make  
sure it is locked.  
If necessary, press down gently on its front edge to lock  
it in place.  
The alarm will sound the horn and siren intermittently,  
and the turn signals and front interior lighting will flash.  
WARNING  
After inserting the support bar into the hole, make  
sure that the bar sufficiently secures the hood  
against falling on your head or body.
