NOTE: While this mode provides increased security, it
can be a problem if your remote lock control transmitter
is damaged, lost or if it fails to operate for any reason
while the Content Theft
- Deterrent system is armed. The
Content Theft - Deterrent system must be disarmed for
the engine to run while in Mode 2; your key can no
longer disarm the system.
If your vehicle is equipped with the optional dealer
installed OnStar
R
system, OnStar will not be able to
remotely unlock your vehicle if it has been programmed
to Mode 2.
Mode 3: Standard Arming and Disarming
D The system will arm when you lock the doors using
either power door lock switch while any door or the
liftgate is open and the key is removed from
the ignition.

To change the mode:
1. Follow the instructions for “Entering Programming
Mode” listed previously.
2. Insert your second key fully into any door key
cylinder and turn it to the unlock position.
This step is necessary to prevent accidental
programming of this feature to Mode 2. Do not
program this feature to Mode 2 without first reading
the special note contained in the description for that
mode. The door key cylinder must remain in the
unlock position during Steps 2 through 4.

control transmitter.

of chimes tells you which mode your vehicle is in.
