Passive
Arming
If the ignition was just turned off and a door was
opened, the system will arm
six
seconds after all doors
are closed, whether or not you lock them. In all other
cases, the
system
will wait
30
seconds after
all
doors are
closed before arming, allowing you time to get into the
vehicle and put the key in the ignition. The parking
lamps will flash when the system arms. Passive arming
is
not enabled from the factory.
Disarming
the
System
There
are
two ways to disarm the system:
1.
Press the UNLOCK button on the key chain transmitter.
If the horn chirps two or three times when you unlock the
car,
the
alarm
sounded in your absence. Two chirps
means that the shock sensor was set
off
and three chirps
means that a door
or
the hatch was opened.
2.
Turn the ignition to the
RUN
position with the
proper key.
For more information on customizing the features
mentioned here, see “Feature Customization”
in

Off
the
Alarm
If you started the alarm by pressing the panic button on
the key chain transmitter, you must either push that
button again or
turn
the ignition switch to the
ON
position to stop the alarm.
If the alarm is sounding due
to
the shock sensor or a
door or hatch opening, it can be turned off by either
turning the ignition switch with a proper key inserted or
by pressing any button
on
the key chain transmitter. If
you use your key chain transmitter to silence the alarm,
additional things will happen depending upon which
button
you
press.
