system.
The indicator light, on the instrument
panel near the windscreen, indicates
the status of the system.

the delay to arm the system.

Vehicle is unsecured.
A door, the bonnet, or the boot
is open.

Arming the Alarm System
1. Turn off the vehicle.
2. Lock the vehicle in one of
three ways:
.
Use the RKE transmitter.
.
Use the Keyless Access
system.
.
With a door open, press the
inside
Q
.
3. After 30 seconds the alarm
system will arm, and the
indicator light will begin to
slowly flash indicating the alarm
system is operating. Pressing
Q
on the RKE transmitter a second
time will bypass the 30-second
delay and immediately arm the
alarm system.
The vehicle alarm system will not arm
if the doors are locked with the key.
If the driver door is opened without
first unlocking with the RKE
transmitter, the horn will chirp and
the lights will flash to indicate
pre-alarm. If the vehicle is not started,
or the door is not unlocked by
pressing
K
on the RKE transmitter
during the 10-second pre-alarm, the
alarm will be activated.
The alarm will also be activated if a
passenger door, the boot, or the
bonnet is opened without first
disarming the system. When the
alarm is activated, the indicators flash
and the horn sounds for about
30 seconds. The alarm system will
then re-arm to monitor the next
unauthorised event.
Disarming the Alarm System
To disarm the alarm system or turn
off the alarm if it has been activated:
.
Press
K
on the RKE transmitter.
.
Unlock the vehicle using the
Keyless Access system.
.
