Jeep 2008 Liberty - Manual (Page 19)

Rearming of the System:
If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken to
disarm it, the system will turn off the horn after 3
minutes, turn off all of the visual signals after 15 minutes,
and then the system will rearm itself.
To Arm the System:
1. Remove the key from the ignition switch and exit the
vehicle.
2. Lock the doors and liftgate by pressing the power door
lock switch or the Lock button on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter.
NOTE: The system will not arm if you lock the doors
with the manual door lock plungers or the driver’s door
lock cylinder.
3. Close all doors. The Vehicle Security Alarm Indicator
Light in the instrument cluster will flash rapidly for
about 16 seconds to signal that the system is arming.
During this period, opening any door or the liftgate will
cancel the arming process. If the system arms success-
fully, the Vehicle Security Alarm Indicator Light will flash
at a slower rate to indicate the alarm is set.
NOTE: For added security, whenever the Security
Alarm is armed, the HomeLink ௡/Garage Door Opener
(if equipped) is disabled as well.
To Disarm the System:
Either press the Unlock button on the RKE transmitter or
insert a valid sentry key into the ignition lock cylinder
and turn the key to the ON position.
NOTE:
• Unlocking the doors with the manual door lock plung-
ers or the driver’s door lock cylinder will not disarm
the system.
• When the system is armed, the interior power door
lock switches will not unlock the doors.
