Action / Description
Displayed when the perimeter alarm system is
armed and the vehicle is entered using the key
on the driver's side door. In order to prevent
the perimeter alarm system from triggering,
the ignition must be turned to start or on
before the 12 second chime expires.
Action / Description
Displayed when the system has been
automatically disabled to protect itself. This is
caused by operating the vehicle with the
compact spare tire installed or if the system is
overheating. The system will resume normal
function and clear this message after driving a
short distance with the road tire re-installed or
after the system is allowed to cool.
Displayed in conjunction with the powertrain
malfunction/reduced power light when the
system is not operating properly. If the
warning stays on or continues to come on,
contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
