Press the LOCK button on the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
The Vehicle Security Alarm will set when you use
the power door locks, or use the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter to lock the doors. After all
the doors are locked and closed, the Vehicle
Security Light, in the instrument panel cluster, will
flash rapidly for about 16 seconds to indicate that
the alarm is being set. After the alarm is set, the
Vehicle Security Light will flash at a slower rate to
indicate that the system is armed.
To Disarm The System
The Vehicle Security Alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:
1. Press the UNLOCK button on the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter.
2. Grasp the Passive Entry Unlock Door Handle
with a valid Key Fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the
passive entry door handle (if equipped, refer to
" Keyless Enter-N-Go™ " in " Things To Know
Before Starting Your Vehicle " for further infor-
mation).
3. Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the
OFF position.
4. For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-
Go™, press the Keyless Enter-N-Go™
Start/ Stop button (requires at least one valid
Key Fob in the vehicle).
5. For vehicles not equipped with Keyless Enter-
N-Go™, insert a valid key into the ignition
switch and turn the key to the ON position.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to pro-
tect your vehicle. However, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in the
vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If
this occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle Se-
curity Alarm will remain armed when the battery
is reconnected; the exterior lights will flash, and
the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
Security System Manual Override
The Vehicle Security Alarm will not arm if you
lock the doors using the manual door lock
plunger.
ILLUMINATED APPROACH
The courtesy lights will turn on when you use
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter to
unlock the doors or open any door.
This feature also turns on the approach lighting
in the outside mirrors (if equipped). Refer to
“Mirrors” in “Understanding The Features Of
Your Vehicle” for further information.
The lights will fade to off after approximately 30
seconds, or they will immediately fade to off
once the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN
from the OFF position.
The front courtesy overhead console and door
courtesy lights will not turn off if the dimmer
control is in the “Dome ON” position (rotate
horizontal thumb wheel on the bottom of the
switch to the far right detent position).
