Passive Arming
If the ignition was just turned off and
a
door was
opened, the system will arm six seconds after both doors
are closed, whether or not you lock them. In all other
cases, the system will wait 30 seconds after both doors
are closed before arming, allowing you 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.
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 car, the alarm sounded in your
absence. Two chirps means that the shock sensor
was set off and three chirps means that a door or the
hatch was opened.
2. Turn the ignition to RUN with the proper key.
For more information on customizing the features
mentioned here, see "Feature Customization" in the Index.
'Ibrning 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 switch to RUN to stop
the alarm.
If the alarm is sounding due to the shock sensor or a
door or hatch 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.
