Arming the Alarm System

1. Close the liftgate and the hood.

Turn off the vehicle.

2. Lock the vehicle in one of

three ways:

.

Use the RKE transmitter.

.

Use the Keyless Access
system.

.

With a door open, press

Q

on the interior of the door.

3. After 30 seconds the alarm

system will arm, and the
indicator light will begin to
slowly flash indicating the
alarm system is operating.
Pressing

Q

on the RKE

transmitter a second time will
bypass the 30-second delay
and immediately arm the alarm
system.

The vehicle alarm system will not
arm if the doors are locked with
the key.

If the driver door is opened without
first unlocking with the RKE
transmitter, the horn will chirp and

the lights will flash to indicate
pre-alarm. If the vehicle is not
started, or the door is not unlocked
by pressing

K

on the RKE

transmitter during the 10-second
pre-alarm, the alarm will be
activated.

If a door, the hood, or the liftgate is
opened without first disarming the
system, the turn signals will flash
and the horn will sound for about
30 seconds. The alarm system will
then re-arm to monitor for the next
unauthorized event.

Disarming the Alarm System

Do one of the following to disarm
the alarm system or turn off the
alarm if it has been activated:

.

Press

K

on the RKE transmitter.

.

Unlock the vehicle using the
Keyless Access system.

.

Start the vehicle.

To avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:

.

Lock the vehicle after all
occupants have left the vehicle
and all doors are closed.

.

Always unlock a door with the
RKE transmitter or use the
Keyless Access system.

Unlocking the driver door with the
key will not disarm the system or
turn off the alarm.

How to Detect a Tamper
Condition

If

K

is pressed on the RKE

transmitter and the horn chirps three
times, an alarm occurred previously
while the alarm system was armed.

If the alarm has been activated, a
message will appear on the DIC.
