Disarming the Alarm System
To disarm the alarm system or turn
off the alarm if it has been activated:
.
Press
K
on the RKE transmitter.
.
Press the lock/unlock button on
an outside door handle while the
RKE transmitter is within 1 m of
the door handle.
.
Start the vehicle.
To avoid setting off the alarm by
accident:
.
Lock the vehicle after all
occupants have left the vehicle
and all doors are closed.
.
Always unlock a door with the
RKE transmitter or press a
button on an outside door
handle while the RKE transmitter
is within 1 m of the door handle.
Unlocking the driver door with the
mechanical key will not disarm the
system or turn off the alarm.
How to Detect a Tamper
Condition
If
K
is pressed on the RKE
transmitter and the horn chirps and
the lights flash three times, an alarm
occurred previously while the alarm
system was armed.
If the alarm has been activated, a
message will appear on the DIC.
Immobiliser Operation
This vehicle has a passive
immobiliser system.
The system does not have to be
manually armed or disarmed.
The vehicle is automatically
immobilised when the vehicle is
turned off.
The immobilisation system is
disarmed when the engine is started
or the ignition is in Accessory mode
and a valid RKE transmitter is
present in the vehicle.
The RKE transmitters are matched
to your vehicle. Only a correctly
matched RKE transmitter will start
the vehicle. If the transmitter is ever
damaged, you may not be able to
start your vehicle.
When trying to start the vehicle, the
security light may come on briefly
when the ignition is turned on.
If the engine does not start and the
security light stays on, there is a
problem with the system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.
If the vehicle will not change ignition
modes, and the RKE transmitter
appears to be undamaged, try
another transmitter. Alternatively, try
placing the transmitter in the
console pocket. Refer to
