If the alarm emits a sound even when the doors,
hood, and liftgate are closed, there is a fault with
the system. Contact an authorized dealer for
assistance.
The vehicle doors can be locked without arming the
Vehicle Security system by using the emergency key
in the exterior door lock cylinder.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
The Vehicle Security system can be disarmed using any
of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.
Grab the Passive Entry door handle to unlock the
door
page 41.
Cycle the ignition out of the OFF position to disarm
the system.
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder and liftgate button on
the key fob cannot arm or disarm the Vehicle Secu-
rity system. Use of the door key cylinder when the
system is armed will sound the alarm when the door
is opened.
If the door is unlocked using the emergency key in
the driver’s door key cylinder when the alarm is
active, the alarm will not deactivate and will sound.
The alarm can then be disarmed by placing the igni-
tion in the ON/RUN position, or pushing the unlock
button in the key fob.
The Vehicle Security system is designed to protect your
vehicle. However, you can create conditions where the
system will give you a false alarm. If one of the previ-
ously described arming sequences has occurred, the
Vehicle Security system will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle
and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the Vehicle Security system.
If the Vehicle Security system is armed and the battery
becomes disconnected, the Vehicle Security system will
remain armed when the battery is reconnected; the
exterior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security system.
NOTE:
The alarm does not turn off when the doors are
unlocked by inserting the blade of the emergency key
(found inside the key fob) into the door handle lock
cylinder.
Disabling The System
To completely disable the system (e.g. during a lengthy
period of car inactivity), close the doors by turning the
emergency key in the door lock.
NOTE:
If the key fob batteries become depleted, or the system
fails, the system can be switched off by cycling the igni-
tion out of the OFF position. Manually open the doors
by inserting the emergency key into the door lock cylin-
der, and then place the key fob in the cupholder.
VOLUMETRIC/ANTI-LIFT
PROTECTION IF EQUIPPED
To ensure the correct operation of the Volumetric/Anti-
Lift Protection system, completely close the side win-
dows and sunroof (if equipped).
To disable the function, push the Volumetric/Anti-Lift
Protection button before deactivating the alarm.
When the function is disabled, the light on the
Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection button flashes for sev-
eral seconds.
Any disabling of the Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection must
be repeated each time the ignition is placed in the OFF
position.
