lock knob.
Forcing open a door, the bonnet or the

times.

How to Arm the System

1. Close the windows securely.
NOTE
(With the intrusion sensor)
Even with a window open, the system
can be armed, however, leaving the
windows even partially open can invite
theft, and wind blowing into the vehicle
could trigger the alarm.
The intrusion sensor function can also
be cancelled.
Refer to Cancelling the Intrusion/Tilt
Sensor on page 3-44 .
2. Switch the ignition OFF.
3. Make sure the bonnet, the doors, and
the liftgate are closed.
4. Press the lock button on the transmitter
or lock the driver's door from the
outside with the auxiliary key.
The hazard warning lights will fl ash
once.
(With the advanced keyless function)
Press a request switch.

instrument panel fl ashes twice per
second for 20 seconds.
