GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 13
NOTE:
When opening the driver’s door with the key in
the ignition and the ignition placed in the STOP
(OFF/LOCK) position, a chime will sound to
remind you to remove the key.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the
vehicle doors and ignition for unauthorized
operation. When the Vehicle Security system is
activated, interior switches for door locks are
disabled. The system provides both audible and
visible signals. Every intrusion attempt causes
six continuous alarm cycles. Every alarm cycle
lasts for 30 seconds. For 26 seconds, the horn
will sound, and the turn signal lights will flash.
For four seconds, it will pause. After a maximum
of 10 alarm cycles, only the turn signal lights will
flash until the next alarm activation.
To Arm The System
The Vehicle Security system will arm when you
use the key fob to lock the doors. If a door or the
hood is not properly shut, the alarm system will
not be armed.
To Disarm The System
Use the key fob to unlock the door and disarm
the system.
The Vehicle Security system will also disarm if a
programmed Sentry Key is inserted into the
ignition switch. To exit the alarm mode, push
the key fob unlock button, or insert a
programmed Sentry Key into the ignition switch.
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 previously 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.
Rearming Of The System
If the system has not been disabled, the Vehicle
Security system will rearm itself after the
15 additional minutes of turn lamps flashing. If
the condition which initiated the alarm is still
present, the system will ignore that condition
and monitor the remaining doors and ignition.
Security System Manual Override
The Vehicle Security system will not arm if you
lock the doors using the manual door lock.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren. A child could operate power windows,
other controls, or move the vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior
heat build-up may cause serious injury or
death.
CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation. Always
remove the key from the ignition and lock all
the doors when leaving the vehicle
unattended.
