Jeep 2008 Wrangler - Manual (Page 20)

The Security Alarm System is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
system will arm unexpectedly. If you remain in the
vehicle and lock the doors with the RKE transmitter, once
the system is armed (after 16 seconds), when you pull the
door handle to exit, the alarm will sound. If this occurs,
press the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter to
disarm the system. You may also accidentally disarm the
system by unlocking the driver’s door with the key and
then locking it. The door will be locked but the Security
Alarm will not arm.
ILLUMINATED ENTRY
The interior lights will come on when you open any door.
The lights will remain on after all of the doors are closed,
and then fade to off or they will immediately fade to off
once the ignition switch is turned on.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY — IF EQUIPPED
This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors,
swing gate, and activate the panic alarm from a maxi-
mum distance of 66 ft (20 m) using a hand-held radio
transmitter (key fob). The RKE transmitter does not need
to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
