Disarming the System

You can disarm the system by doing any one of the
following:
•
Press the remote keyless entry transmitter
unlock button.
•
Turn the ignition on.
•
Turn the driver's door key lock cylinder
counterclockwise.
Once the system is disarmed, the security light will
stop flashing.

How the System Alarm is Activated

If the system is armed, it can be activated by either:
•
Opening the driver's door. This will cause a
ten second pre-alarm chirp followed by a
thirty second full alarm of horn and lights.
•
Opening any other door or trunk. This will
immediately cause a full alarm of horn and lights
for thirty seconds.
•
Opening the hood, if the vehicle is equipped with
the remote start feature, will activate the alarm.
When an alarm event has finished, the system will
re-arm itself automatically.

How to Turn Off the System Alarm

To turn off the system alarm, do one of the following:
•
Press the lock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter. The system will then re-arm itself.
•
Press the unlock button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter. This will also disarm the system.
•
Insert the key in the driver's door key lock cylinder
and turn it counterclockwise. This will also disarm
the system.
•
Insert the key in the ignition and turn it on. This will
also disarm the system.
Simulated Armed Mode
If you choose not to arm the system or if proper arming
can not be completed, the Content Theft Deterrent
system will flash the security light once every
three seconds after a one minute delay with all the
doors closed. This flashing serves as a visual deterrent;
however, the system is not armed.

How to Detect a Tamper Condition

If you hear three chirps when you press the unlock or
lock buttons on the remote keyless transmitter, it means
that the content theft security system alarm was
triggered previously.
