To Disarm The System; Illuminated Entry; Remote Keyless Entry - If Equipped - Jeep 2009 Wrangler Owner's Manual

To Disarm the System

To disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm system, you will
need to press the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmit-
ter, or turn the ignition key to the ON position. If
something has triggered the Vehicle Security Alarm in
your absence, the horn will sound three times when you
unlock the doors. Check the vehicle for tampering.
The Vehicle Security Alarm system is designed to protect
your vehicle; however, you can create conditions where
the Vehicle Security Alarm 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 Vehicle Security Alarm
system. You may also accidentally disarm the Vehicle
Security Alarm 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.
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 19

ILLUMINATED ENTRY

The interior lights will come on when you open any door.
The lights will remain on after all of the doors are closed,
and then fade to off or they will immediately fade to off
once the ignition switch is turned on.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY — IF EQUIPPED
This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors,
swing gate, and activate the Panic Alarm from a maxi-
mum distance of 66 ft (20 m) using a Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter. The RKE transmitter does not
need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
