Theft-Deterrent System
Your vehicle has a theft-deterrent alarm system.
The security light is
located on the
instrument panel cluster.
If the ignition is off and a door is open, the
security light will flash, reminding you to arm
the theft-deterrent system.
To arm the system, do one of the following:
• Press the lock button on the keyless access
transmitter. If the door is closed when the
lock button is pressed, the security light
will stay illuminated for 30 seconds. After the
security light goes off, the theft-deterrent
system is armed. Pressing the lock button
twice will arm the system immediately.
If the vehicle is locked using the keyless
access transmitter and the trunk lid, hood
or a door is open or not closed completely,
the security light will flash for 60 seconds and
then turn off. At this time, the theft-deterrent
system is armed but the alarm will not sound if
the trunk lid, hood or door that was not
closed completely is tampered with or opened.
The alarm will sound for the trunk lid, hood
or a door that was completely closed at
the time the vehicle was locked using the
keyless access transmitter.
• Open the door. Lock the door with the power
door lock switch or lock button on the keyless
access transmitter. The security light should
flash. Close the door. The security light
will stop flashing and stay on. After 30 seconds
the light should turn off, the theft-deterrent
system is armed.
• Passive Arming, if activated through the
vehicle personalization feature, will arm
the system automatically after you close the
door and take at least one keyless access
transmitter with you. The security light will turn
on. After 60 seconds the light should turn
off. The theft-deterrent system is armed. See
Vehicle Personalization on page 148.
