Content Theft-Deterrent
Your vehicle may have a theft-deterrent alarm
system.
A light located on top of your instrument panel,
near the center of the vehicle next to the
windshield, will flash slowly to let you know that
the system has been armed.
While armed, the doors will not unlock with the
power door lock switch.
Once armed, the alarm will go off if someone tries
to enter the vehicle without using the remote
keyless entry transmitter or a key, or turns
the ignition to RUN. The horn will sound and the
turn signal lamps will flash for up to two minutes.
Arming with the Power Lock Switch
Your alarm system will arm when the key is
removed from the ignition and you use the driver’s
power door lock switch, with the driver’s door
open or the passenger’s door power door
lock switch with the passenger’s door open to lock
the vehicle. If you would like to turn on power
door lock switch arming, see DIC Vehicle
Personalization (Uplevel Only) on page 275.
When the security light flashes quickly the system
is arming. After all doors and the liftgate are
closed and locked, the security light will begin
flashing at a very slow rate to let you know
the system is armed.
