Disarming The System; How To Turn Off The System Alarm; How To Detect A Tamper Condition - Chevrolet 2008 Optra Owner's Manual

Disarming the System

To disarm the system, use one of the following methods:
•
Unlock the driver's or passenger's door using
the key.
•
Press the unlock button on the transmitter.
− The LED light on the transmitter will
flash once.
− All of the doors will unlock.
− The hazard warning lamps will flash twice.
− The theft-deterrent mode will deactivate.
If the door is not opened or if the engine is not started
within 30 seconds after disarming the system with
the transmitter, all of the doors will automatically lock
and the theft-deterrent mode will reactivate.
How the System Alarm is Activated
If a door or the liftgate is opened without using the key
or the remote keyless entry transmitter, the horn will
sound and the lamps will flash for up to 30 seconds.

How to Turn Off the System Alarm

If the system alarm is active, it can be deactivated using
one of the following methods:
•
Press the lock or unlock button on the remote
keyless entry transmitter.
•
Unlock the driver's or passenger's front door
using the key.
Otherwise, the alarm will automatically stop after
30 seconds. The system will then lock the doors and
reactivate the theft-deterrent system.

How to Detect a Tamper Condition

If the hazard warning lamps flash once when you press
the lock or unlock buttons on the remote keyless entry
transmitter, that means the theft-deterrent system alarm
was triggered while you were away, from the vehicle.
Do not leave the key or device that disarms or
deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.
