Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
turn signal lamps and will sound the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the ignition is off. Any of the
following actions will prearm the alarm system:
•
Press the
control on the transmitter.
When you press the lock control twice within three seconds on your
transmitter, the horn will chirp once to let you know that all doors, the
hood and the liftgate are closed. If any of these are not closed, the horn
will chirp twice to warn you that a door, the hood or the liftgate is still
open.
•
Press the driver or passenger
power door lock control while the
door is open, then close the door.
•
Press and hold the 7
•
8 and
9
•
0 controls on the keyless
entry pad at the same time to
lock the doors (driver’s door must
be closed).
•
Lock the door by turning the key
in the door key cylinder.
There is a 20 second countdown
when any of the above actions occur
before the vehicle becomes armed.
Each door, the hood or the liftgate
is armed individually, and if any are
open, they must be closed for that
entry point to enter the 20 second
countdown.
The turn signal lamps will flash once when all doors, the hood or the
liftgate are closed indicating the vehicle is locked and entering the
20 second countdown.
