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 decklid release are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will provide the following
audible 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 The System
Vehicles Not Equipped With Keyless Enter-N-Go™
Remove the key from the ignition switch and either push a power door LOCK switch while
the driver or passenger door is open or push the LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter. After the last door is closed, or if all doors are closed, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will arm itself in about 16 seconds. During that time, the Vehicle Security
Light will flash. If it does not illuminate, the Vehicle Security Alarm is not arming. In
addition, if you open a door during the arming period, the Vehicle Security Alarm will
cancel the arming process. If you wish to rearm the Vehicle Security Alarm after closing
the door, you must repeat one of the previously-described arming sequences.
You may also disarm the ultrasonic intrusion sensor during the 16 second arming period
by pushing the lock button three times with a delay of no more than five seconds between
key pushes. The horn will pulse twice to acknowledge that the ultrasonic intrusion sensor
has been disabled.
NOTE:
• The driver’s door key cylinder and the trunk button on the RKE transmitter cannot arm
or disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
• The Vehicle Security Alarm remains armed during trunk entry. Pushing the TRUNK
button will not disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm. If someone enters the vehicle
through the trunk, and opens any door, the alarm will sound.
• When the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
• The ultrasonic intrusion sensor may be inadvertently activated by a child, pet or shifting
package left within the vehicle after the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed.
Vehicles Equipped With Keyless Enter-N-Go™
Push the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ START/STOP button until the EVIC/DID indicates that the
vehicle ignition is “OFF” (refer to “Starting Procedures” in “Starting And Operating” in
your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information). Then either push the power door
LOCK switch while the driver or passenger door is open, push the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter LOCK button or push the Passive Entry Door Handle LOCK button (refer
to “Keyless Enter-N-Go™” in “Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” in your
Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information).
