VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
Keyless Enter-N-Go START/STOP button for unauthorized operation. While the vehicle
security alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and liftgate release are disabled.
If something triggers t he alarm, the vehicle security alarm will provide the following au-
dible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will flash,
and the vehicle security light in the instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm
Lock the door using either the power door lock switch (one door must be open) or the
lock button on the key fob doors can be open or closed), and close all doors.
The vehicle security light in the instrument cluster will flash for 16 seconds. This shows
that the vehicle security alarm is arming. During this period, if a door is opened, the igni-
tion is placed in the MAR/ON/RUN mode, or the power door locks are unlocked in any
manner, the vehicle security alarm will automatically disarm.
NOTE:
The vehicle security alarm will not arm if you lock the doors with the manual door
lock plungers.
Once armed, the vehicle security alarm disables the unlock switch on the driver door
trim panel and passenger door trim panel.
To Disarm The System
Push the key fob unlock button or place the ignition in the MAR/ON/RUN mode.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the vehicle security alarm will give you a false alarm. If one of the pre-
viously described arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle security alarm will arm re-
gardless 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 alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle
security alarm 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 alarm.
