To Disarm The System; Illuminated Entry; Remote Keyless Entry - Jeep Commander Owner's Manual

opening any door or the liftgate will cancel the arming. If
the system successfully arms, the Vehicle Security Light
will flash at a slower rate to indicate the alarm is set.

To Disarm the System

To disarm the system, you will need to press the UN-
LOCK button on the RKE transmitter or turn the ignition
key to the ON position. If something has triggered the
system in your absence, the horn will sound three times
when you unlock the doors. Check the vehicle for tam-
pering.
The Vehicle Security Alarm system is designed to protect
your vehicle; however, you can create conditions where
the system will arm unexpectedly. If you remain in the
vehicle and lock the doors with the RKE transmitter, once
the system is armed (after 16 seconds), when you pull the
door handle to exit, the alarm will sound. If this occurs,
press the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter to
disarm the system. You may also accidentally disarm the
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 21
system by unlocking the driver's door with the key and
then locking it. The door will be locked but the Vehicle
Security Alarm will not arm.

ILLUMINATED ENTRY

The interior lights come on when you open any door.
They will remain on for about 30 seconds after all doors
are closed then fade to off.
The lights also will fade to off if you turn on the ignition
after you close all the doors.

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY

This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors and
liftgate, or activate the panic alarm, from distances up to
about 66 ft (20 m) using a handheld RKE radio transmit-
ter. The RKE transmitter does not need not be pointed at
the vehicle to activate the system.
