killed when inhaled.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM

This Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the doors, liftgate, and ignition switch for
unauthorized operation.

When the alarm is activated, the interior switches for door locks are disabled. The
Vehicle Security Alarm provides both audio and visual signals repeatedly for three
minutes. If the disturbance is still present (driver's door, passenger door, other doors,
ignition) after three minutes, the parking lights and tail lights will flash for an
additional 15 minutes.

To Arm:

• Lock the door using either the power door lock switch (one door must be open) or

the LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (doors can be
open or closed), and close all doors.

NOTE:
The Vehicle Security Alarm will not arm if you lock the doors with the manual door
lock plungers.

The Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will flash for 16 seconds. This
shows that the Vehicle Security Alarm is arming. During this period, if a door is
opened, the ignition is cycled to ON/RUN, or the power door locks are unlocked in any
manner, the Vehicle Security Alarm will automatically disarm.
