Do not arm the interior motion detection system if movement within the
vehicle is likely to occur. Additionally, do not arm the vehicle incline
sensing system when the vehicle is in transport.
For proper operation of the interior motion detection system, ensure all
windows are closed prior to arming the system. This will help prevent
accidental alarm activation due to external influences and ensure proper
interior motion detection. Additionally, the interior motion sensing
system will not arm if either door is ajar
If there is any potential active anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensure ALL remote entry transmitters are taken to the dealership to
aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the system
When armed, the active anti-theft system is designed to notify you of an
unauthorized entry. When unauthorized entry or towing occurs, the
system will flash the turn signal lamps and interior lamps and sounds the
security horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is out of the ignition. Any
of the following actions will arm the alarm system:
• Press the remote transmitter lock control one time to arm the system.
• Lock all doors using the interior power lock switch while the driver or
passenger door is open and then becomes closed.
• Lock all doors with the key in the key lock cylinder (this will not
however arm the interior motion or vehicle incline sensing systems).
If all the closures (doors, trunk, hood) are closed, the turn signal lamps
will flash once. If the vehicle is locked again within three seconds, the
vehicle will lock again, the turn signal lamps will flash again and the horn
will chirp.
If any closure is not properly closed, the turn signal lamps will not flash
and the horn will chirp twice.
The system will wait 20 seconds after locking before triggering an alarm.
After the 20–second pre-arm phase, the power door unlock control is
disabled to further protect your vehicle.
