How to arm the theft deterrent alarm
system (when enabled)
Lock all doors (including the tailgate) using
the keyless push start system remote con-
troller, the request switch or the keyless
entry system transmitter. The theft deter-
rent light (1) will start blinking, and the theft

about 20 seconds.
While the system is being armed, the indi-
cator continues to blink at intervals of
approximately 2 seconds.

NOTE:
• To prevent the alarm from being acciden-
tally triggered, avoid arming it while any-
one remains inside the vehicle. The
alarm will be triggered if any person
inside unlocks a door or engine hood (for
EU specification vehicle) by operating
the lock knob or power door locking
switch.
• The theft deterrent alarm system is not
armed when all doors are locked using
the key from outside, or using the door
lock knobs or the power door locking
switch from inside.
• If any door is not operated within approx-
imately 30 seconds after the doors have
been unlocked using the keyless push
start system remote controller, the
request switch or the keyless entry sys-
tem transmitter, the doors are automati-
cally locked again. At the same time, the
theft deterrent alarm system is armed if
the system is in the enabled state.
How to disarm the theft deterrent alarm
system
Simply unlock the doors using the keyless
push start system remote controller, the
request switch or the keyless entry system
transmitter. The theft deterrent light will go
out, indicating that the theft deterrent
alarm system is disarmed.
