How To Test The Alarm - Chevrolet 1995 Corvette Owner's Manual

Now, if a door or the hatch is opened without the key or
Passive Keyless Entry system, the alarm will go off.
Your horn will sound for three minutes, then it will go
off to save battery power. And, your vehicle won't start.
The theft deterrent system won't arm if you lock the
doors with a key or manual door lock, or if you lock the
vehicle after the doors are closed.
If your passenger stays in the vehicle when you leave
with the keys, have the passenger lock the vehicle after
the doors are closed. This way the alarm won't
arm,
and
your passenger won't set it off.
Always use your key or the Passive Keyless Entry
system to unlock a door. Unlocking a door any other
way will set off the alarm. If you do set off the alarm
accidentally, there are three ways to stop it:
Unlock any door with your key.
Put the ignition key in the ignition.
Use the Passive Keyless Entry system.
