THEFT-ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

D030000AEN

This system is designed to provide pro-
tection from unauthorized entry into the
vehicle. This system is operated in three
stages: the first is the "Armed" stage, the
second is the "Theft-alarm" stage, and
the third is the "Disarmed" stage. If trig-
gered, the system provides an audible
alarm with blinking of the hazard warning
lights.

D030100AHM-EU

Armed stage

Park the vehicle and stop the engine.
Arm the system as described below.
1. Remove the ignition key from the igni-

tion switch and exit the vehicle.

2. Make sure that all doors (and tailgate)

and engine hood are closed and
latched.

3. Lock the doors using the transmitter of

the keyless entry system (or smart
key).

After completion of the steps above, the
hazard warning lights will blink (for smart
key, the chime also sounds) once to indi-
cate that the system is armed.

If any door (or tailgate) or engine hood
remains open, the hazard warning lights
will not operate and the theft-alarm will
not arm. If all doors (and tailgate) and
engine hood are closed after the lock
button is pressed, the hazard warning
lights will blink once.

The system can also be armed or dis-
armed by locking or unlocking the doors
with the key from the front doors; howev-
er, the hazard warning lights will not blink
using this method.

Do not arm the system until all pas-
sengers have left the vehicle. If the
system is armed while a passenger(s)
remains in the vehicle, the alarm may
be activated when the remaining pas-
senger(s) leaves the vehicle. If any
door (or tailgate) or engine hood is
opened within 30 seconds after the
system enters the armed stage, the
system will be disarmed to prevent
unnecessary alarm.
