18 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM

The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the doors, liftgate,
and hood for unauthorized entry and the ignition for
unauthorized operation. If something triggers the alarm,
the Vehicle Security Alarm will prevent the vehicle from
starting. It will also sound the horn and flash the park
lights, and taillights.

Rearming of the System

If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to
disarm it, the Vehicle Security Alarm will turn off the
horn after three minutes, turn off all of the visual signals
(flashing lights) after 15 minutes, and then rearm itself.

To Arm The System

Follow these steps to arm the Vehicle Security Alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle ignition system is the OFF
position.
2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the
vehicle:
Press LOCK on the interior power door lock switch with
the driver and/or passenger door open.
Press the LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
Entering The Liftgate With The System Armed
NOTE: Using the key to open the liftgate while the
Vehicle Security Alarm is armed will trigger the alarm.
Press the LIFTGATE release button on the RKE transmit-
ter twice to allow access without triggering the alarm or
having to disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm. Then,
within 30 seconds, open the liftgate by using the key
cylinder or the LIFTGATE release switch located in the
exterior liftgate handle.
