The alarm will also be activated if a
passenger door, the liftgate, or the hood is
opened without first disarming the system.

signals flash and the horn sounds for about
30 seconds. The alarm system will then
re-arm to monitor for the next unauthorized
event.

Immobilizer Operation

This vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent
system.
The system does not have to be manually
armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically immobilized
when the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter leaves the vehicle.
The immobilization system is disarmed
when the ignition is turned on or in ACC/
ACCESSORY and a valid RKE transmitter is in
the vehicle.
The security light, in the instrument cluster,
comes on if there is a problem with arming
or disarming the theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more RKE
transmitters matched to an immobilizer
control unit in the vehicle. Only a correctly
matched RKE transmitter will start the
vehicle. If the transmitter is ever damaged,
you may not be able to start the vehicle.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
security light may come on briefly when the
ignition is turned on.
