VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the
vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and
the ignition switch for unauthorized opera-
tion. When the alarm is activated, the
interior switches for door locks, power
sliding doors and power liftgate are dis-
abled. The Vehicle Security Alarm pro-
vides both audible and visible signals, for
the first three minutes, the headlights, park
lamps and/or turn signals will flash and
Vehicle Security Light will flash repeatedly
and the horn will sound. For an additional
15 minutes, only the headlights, park
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

Security Light will flash.

Rearming Of The System

The Vehicle Security Alarm will rearm itself
after the 15 additional minutes of head-
lights and Vehicle Security Light flashing,
if the Vehicle Security Alarm has not been
disabled. If the condition which initiated
the alarm is still present, the Vehicle Se-
curity Alarm will ignore that condition and
monitor the remaining doors and ignition.
To Arm The System
Remove the key from the ignition switch
and either press a power door lock switch
while the driver or passenger door is
open, or press the LOCK button on the
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
After all the doors are locked and closed,
the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument
cluster will flash rapidly to signal that the
Vehicle Security Alarm is arming. The Ve-
hicle Security Light in the instrument panel
cluster will flash rapidly for about 16 sec-
onds to indicate that the alarm is being
set. After the alarm is set, the Vehicle
Security Light will flash at a slower rate to
indicate that the Vehicle Security Alarm is
armed.
NOTE: If the Vehicle Security Light stays
on continuously during vehicle operation,
have the system checked by your autho-
rized dealer.

RKE transmitter or insert a valid ignition
key into the ignition switch.
