3. Close all doors. The Vehicle Security Light in the
instrument cluster will flash rapidly for about 16 seconds
to signal that the Vehicle Security Alarm is arming.
During this period, opening any door or the liftgate will
cancel the arming process. If the Vehicle Security Alarm is
set successfully, the Vehicle Security Light will flash at a
slower rate to indicate the alarm is armed.
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/RUN position.
NOTE:
• Unlocking the doors with the manual door lock plung-
ers or the driver’s door lock cylinder will not disarm
the Vehicle Security Alarm.
• When the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, the interior
power door lock switches will not unlock the doors.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
Vehicle Security Alarm will give you a false alarm. If the
previously described arming sequence has occurred, the
Vehicle Security Alarm will arm regardless of whether
you are inside or outside the vehicle. If you remain inside
the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
Tamper Alert
If something has triggered the Vehicle Security Alarm in
your absence, the horn will sound three times and the
exterior lights blink three times when you unlock the
doors. Check the vehicle for tampering.
