the following actions will prearm the alarm system:

control
Open a door and press the power

If a door is open, the system is prearmed and is waiting for the door to
close. The theft indicator in the instrument panel will be lit continuously
when the system is prearmed.
Once the doors are closed, the system will arm in 30 seconds.
When you press the lock control
twice within 5 seconds, the horn will

system is armed.
If the doors are not closed and you press the remote entry transmitter
