To Disarm The System

The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.

Grasp the Passive Entry door handle to

unlock the door. Refer to "Keyless Enter-N-Go
— Passive Entry" in "Doors" in this chapter for
further information.
Place the ignition in the OFF mode to disarm

the system.
NOTE:
The driver's door key cylinder and the liftgate

button on the key fob cannot arm or disarm
the vehicle security alarm.
The vehicle security alarm remains armed

during liftgate entry. If someone enters the
vehicle through the liftgate and opens any
door, the alarm will sound.
When the vehicle security alarm is armed,

the interior power door lock switches will not
unlock the doors.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect
your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a false
alarm. If one of the previously described arming
sequences has occurred, the vehicle security
alarm will arm, regardless of whether you are in
the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle
and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the vehicle security alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the vehicle
security alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the vehicle security alarm.

Disabling

To completely disable the alarm (e.g. in the case
of long inactivity of the car), lock the doors by
turning the emergency key in the exterior door
lock cylinder.
NOTE:
If the batteries in the key fob discharge in the
event of a failure to the system or to turn the
alarm off, place the ignition in the ON/RUN posi-
tion.
