Other websites mention using the key in the driver’s door lock to lock and then unlock the car to reset the break-in alarm. A newer owner’s manual (2004) says:

> To start the vehicle following connection of a  
> booster battery, the Security Alarm System must first be  
> disabled by cycling a front door key cylinder or by using  
> the keyless entry transmitter.  
> That information doesn’t indicate whether you lock first and then unlock or unlock first and then lock, so try both ways.
