PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM
The perimeter anti-theft system will help protect your vehicle doors,
hood and trunk from unauthorized entry.
When the vehicle is armed the power door locks and remote trunk release
control are disabled. These will not work until the vehicle is disarmed.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensure
ALL remote entry transmitters
are brought to the dealership,
to aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the system
When armed, the perimeter alarm will help protect your vehicle from
unauthorized entry. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash

of the following actions will arm the alarm system:
•
Press the remote transmitter lock control.
•

•
Lock all doors with the key.
The system will wait 20 seconds after one of the arming actions is
performed before allowing an alarm to go off.

instrument panel will flash briefly every two seconds to indicate the
perimeter alarm system is protecting your vehicle.
