Passive Arming
If the ignition was just turned off and a door was
opened, the system will arm six seconds after the doors,
tailgate or panel doors are closed. If a door is opened
without the ignition being turned on, the system will
wait 30 seconds after the doors, tailgate or panel doors
are closed before arming. This provides time to get into
the vehicle and put the key in the ignition. The parking
lamps will flash when the system arms. Passive arming
is not enabled from the factory.
If the LOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter or
the power door lock switch is pressed, the system will
arm immediately.

Disarming the System

There are two ways to disarm the system:
1. Press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry
transmitter. If the horn chirps two or three times
when you unlock the vehicle, the alarm sounded in
your absence. Two chirps means that the shock
sensor was set off and three chirps means that a door,
tailgate or the panel doors were opened.
2. Turn the ignition to RUN with the proper key.

Turning Off the Alarm
If you started the alarm by pressing the panic button on
the keyless entry transmitter, you must either push that
button again or turn the ignition to RUN to stop
the alarm.
If the alarm is sounding due to the shock sensor or a
door, tailgate or panel door opening, it can be turned off
by either turning the ignition switch with a proper key
inserted or by pressing any button on the keyless entry
transmitter. If you use your keyless entry transmitter to
silence the alarm, additional things will happen
depending upon which button you press.
