Arming the System
To arm the system, do the following:
1. Close the doors, the windows, the hood, and
the trunk or liftgate.
Ensure that the windows are closed, as the
system can be armed even if the windows
are open.
2. Turn the key to LOCK and remove the key
from the ignition.
If the key is inserted in the ignition, the
transmitter will not arm the theft-deterrent
system.
3. Lock the doors by pressing the lock button on
the remote keyless entry transmitter.
•
The LED light on the transmitter will
flash once.
•
All of the doors will lock.
•
The hazard warning lamps will flash once
and the horn will chirp.

The security light will flash to indicate that
the theft-deterrent system is armed. For
hatchback models, the security light
is located on the secondary information
center (SIC) on the center of the instrument
panel. See Secondary Information Center
(SIC) (Hatchback Only) on page 174.
For sedan models, the security light is
located on the center of the instrument
panel near the clock. See Instrument Panel
Overview on page 132.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident, do one
of the following:
•
Unlock the driver's or passenger's front door
using the key.
•
Press the unlock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter.
Unlocking a door any other way will activate the
alarm when a door or the trunk or liftgate is
opened.
If you do not want to arm the theft-deterrent
system, lock the vehicle using the key or the
manual door locks.
