9. Remove the newly programmed coded key from the ignition.
If the key has been successfully programmed it will start the vehicle’s
engine and the theft indicator light will illuminate for three seconds and
then go out.
If the key was not successfully programmed, it will not start your
vehicle’s engine and the theft indicator light will flash on and off; you
may need to repeat Steps 1 through 5. If failure repeats, bring your
vehicle to your authorized dealer to have the new key(s) programmed.
To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), wait twenty seconds
and then repeat this procedure from Step 1.
PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The perimeter anti-theft system will warn you in the event of an
unauthorized entry to your vehicle.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensure ALL remote entry transmitters are taken to the authorized
dealer to aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
park/turn lamps and will sound the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is removed from the
ignition. Any of the following actions will prearm the alarm system:
• Press the
control on the remote entry transmitter.
• Lock the doors with the key in the key cylinder.
• Open the driver’s door and press the power door lock control to lock
all the doors, and then close the door.
Note: The doors, liftgate and hood will arm individually, and if any of
them are open, they must be closed in order to be armed.
When you lock the vehicle using any of the methods above:
• the park/turn lamps will flash once to indicate the hood, each door
and the liftgate are closed.
• the park/turn lamps will not flash if the hood, any door or the liftgate
are open. Once all doors, hood and liftgate are closed, the park/turn
lamps will flash to confirm the alarm will be set.
When the vehicle is locked, the alarm is set after a 20–second arming
period.
