GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle
doors and ignition for unauthorized operation.
When the Vehicle Security system is activated,
interior switches for door locks are disabled. The
system provides both audible and visible signals.
For the first three minutes, the horn will sound, and
the turn signal lights will flash. For an additional
15 minutes, only the turn signal lights will flash.

Follow these steps to arm the Vehicle Security
system:

3. Perform one of the following methods to lock
the vehicle:
Push the lock button on the exterior Passive
Entry door handle with a valid key fob avail-
able in the same exterior zone Ú page 22.

When the Vehicle Security system is armed, the

The Vehicle Security system can be disarmed using
any of the following methods:
Push the unlock button on the key fob.
Push the Passive Entry button next to the door
handle to unlock the door Ú page 22.
Cycle the ignition out of the OFF position to
disarm the system.
The Vehicle Security system 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 system 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 system.

If the system has not been disabled, the Vehicle
Security system will rearm itself after the 15
additional minutes of turn lamps flashing. If the
condition which initiated the alarm is still present,
the system will ignore that condition and monitor
the remaining doors and ignition.
