To arm the system: Remove the key from the ignition
switch and either:
1. Press a power door lock switch while the driver’sor
passenger’s door is open.
2. Press the LOCK button on the keyless entry transmit-
ter.
After the last door is closed, or if all doors are closed, the
system will arm itself in about 16 seconds. During that
time, the Vehicle Theft Alarm Indicator light will flash. If
it does not illuminate, the system is not arming. Also, if
you open a door during the arming period, the system
will cancel the arming process. If you wish to rearm the
system after closing the door, you must repeat one of the
previously described arming sequences.
To disarm the system: either press the UNLOCK button
on the remote keyless entry transmitter or insert a valid
sentry key into the ignition lock cylinder and turn the key
to the ON/START position. If something has triggered
the system in your absence, the horn will sound three
times when you disarm the system. Check the vehicle for
tampering.
If you open the liftgate after disarming the system, you
must use one of the previously described arming se-
quences if you wish to rearm the system after closing the
liftgate.
NOTE:
•
The driver’s door key cylinder cannot arm or disarm
the system.
•
Once the alarm is set, you have a 30 second one time
access into the liftgate area. If the liftgate is not opened
within 30 seconds the liftgate will automatically re-
lock within 10 seconds.
•
The system remains armed during liftgate entry. If
someone enters the vehicle through the liftgate and
opens any door the alarm will sound.
•
When the system is armed, the doors can not be
unlocked from the interior power door lock switches.
The Vehicle Theft Alarm system is designed to protect
your vehicle, however, you can create conditions where
the system will give you a false alarm. If one of the
previously described arming sequences has occurred, the
system will arm regardless of whether you are in the
