means other than the key or wireless remote control transmitter.

If the key is not in the ignition switch, all the side doors and back door will be automatically locked again.

D Any of the side doors, back door or

glass hatch are forcibly opened.

The alarm will activate when the back door is unlocked with a key. Cancel the system before unlocking the back door.

D The side windows are tapped or bro-

ken.

D The battery terminal is disconnected

and then reconnected.

D The ignition is hotwired.

After one minute, the alarm automatically stops and the indicator light starts flashing again.

Reactivating the alarm

Once set, until you cancel the system, the system automatically resets the alarm after the alarm has stopped.

The alarm will activate again under the same circumstances described in “Activating the alarm”.

Stopping the alarm

You can stop the alarm in either of the following ways:

D Unlock any of the side doors with the

key or wireless remote control transmitter.

D Place the ignition switch in the “ON”

position.

2003 MY COROLLA MATRIX_U (OM12767U)

CANCELLING THE SYSTEM

TESTING THE SYSTEM

You can check the system operation as follows.

1. Open all the windows.

2. Set the system as described in “SETTING THE SYSTEM”.

3. Unlock the driver’s door with the inside lock knob. The system should activate and the alarm should sound.

Before closing the hood, check to see that you have not forgotten any tools, rags, etc. and return the support rod to its clip—this prevents rattles. Then lower the hood and make sure it locks into place. If necessary, press down gently on the front edge to lock it.

’03 MATRIX_U (L/O 0201)

CAUTION

After inserting the support rod into the slot, make sure the rod supports the hood securely from falling down on to your head or body.
