Integrated Key (FOBIK) is used to start the vehicle. Use of
the FOBIK will disable the alarm.
Rearming of the System — If Equipped
The security system will rearm itself after the 15 addi-
tional minutes of headlights and security telltale flashing,
if the system has not been disabled. If the condition
which initiated the alarm is still present, the system will
ignore that condition and monitor the remaining doors
and ignition.

To Arm the System

The alarm will set when you use the power door locks, or
use the Keyless Entry transmitter to lock the doors. After
all the doors are locked and closed the SECURITY light in
the instrument cluster will flash rapidly to signal that the
system is arming. The security light in the instrument
panel cluster will flash rapidly for about 16 seconds to

indicate that the alarm is being set. After the alarm is set,
the security light will flash at a slower rate to indicate
that the system is armed.
NOTE: If the SECURITY light stays on continuously
during vehicle operation, have the system checked by
your dealer.

To Disarm the System

Use FOBIK to unlock the door. If something has triggered
the system in your absence, the horn will sound three
times when you unlock the doors and the security lamp
will flash for 30 seconds. Check the vehicle for tamper-
ing.
The Security system will also disarm, if the vehicle is
started with a FOB Integrated Key (FOBIK). To exit
alarming mode, press the transmitter Unlock button, or
start the vehicle with a programmed Sentry Key.
