the door lock plunger located on the inside of the doors
or with the driver’s door key lock cylinder, will not set
the alarm.
To Disarm the System
To disarm the system, use the remote keyless entry
transmitter. Also, using a valid sentry key and moving
the ignition switch to the ON/START position will
disarm the system. If something has triggered the system
in your absence, the horn will sound three times when
you unlock the doors. Check the vehicle for tampering.
The Security Alarm System is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
system will arm unexpectedly. If you remain in the
vehicle and lock the doors with the transmitter, once the
system is armed (after 16 seconds), when you move
inside of the vehicle or you pull the door handle to exit
the alarm will sound. If this occurs, press the “Unlock”
button on the remote keyless entry transmitter to disarm
the system. The Security Alarm System will not disarm
with a manual unlock, either through the lock plunger
located on the inside of the door, or through a key in the
driver’s door key cylinder.
ILLUMINATED ENTRY
The interior lights come on when you open any door.
They will remain on for about 30 seconds after all doors
are closed then fade to off.
The lights also will fade to off if you turn on the ignition
after you close all the doors.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors,
liftgate, or activate the panic alarm from distances up to
about 23 feet (7 meters) using a hand held transmitter.
The transmitter does not need to be pointed at the vehicle
to activate the system.
