Automatically arming/disarming the
alarm
Automatically arming the alarm helps prevent
inadvertently leaving the vehicle without alarm
protection.
If the vehicle has been unlocked with the remote
key (and the alarm has been disarmed) but no
door or the trunk has been opened within
2 minutes, the vehicle will automatically relock
and the alarm will re-arm.
In certain markets, the alarm will be re-armed
automatically after a slight delay after the driver's
door has been opened and closed without being
locked.
