PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

The perimeter anti-theft system will warn you in the event of an
unauthorized entry to your vehicle.

If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensure ALL remote entry transmitters are taken to the authorized
dealer to aid in troubleshooting.

Arming the system

attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
park/turn lamps and will sound the horn.

The system is ready to arm whenever the key is removed from the
ignition. Either of the following actions will prearm the alarm system:
• Press the

control on the remote entry transmitter.

• Open a door and press the power door lock control to lock all the

doors, and then close the door.
