Theft-alarm stage
The alarm will be activated if any of
the following occurs while the system
is armed.
• A front or rear door is opened with-
out using the ignition key or trans-
mitter (or smart key).
• The tailgate is opened without
using the transmitter (or smart
key).
• The engine hood is opened.
The horn will sound and the hazard
warning lights will blink continuously
for approximately 27 seconds, and
repeat the horn 3 times unless the
system is disarmed. To turn off the
system, unlock the doors with the
ignition key or transmitter (or smart
key).
Disarmed stage
The system will be disarmed when
the doors (and tailgate) are unlocked
with the transmitter (or smart key) or
the ignition key.
After depressing the unlock button,
the hazard warning lights will blink
and the chime will sound twice (in
smart key) to indicate that the sys-
tem is disarmed.
After depressing the unlock button, if
any door (or tailgate) is not opened
within 30 seconds, the system will be
rearmed.

while the alarm is activated. The
vehicle starting motor is disabled

If the system is not disarmed with
the transmitter, insert the key into
the ignition switch, turn the igni-
tion switch to the ON position and
wait for 30 seconds. Then the sys-
tem will be disarmed. (if equipped)
