To Disarm The System
Press UNLOCK on the RKE transmitter, or insert the key
into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to
the ON/RUN position.
If something has triggered the Vehicle Security Alarm in
your absence, the horn will sound three times and exterior
lights blink three times when you unlock the doors. Check
the vehicle for tampering. The Vehicle Security Alarm is
designed to protect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will arm
unexpectedly. If you remain in the vehicle and lock the
doors with the RKE transmitter, once the Vehicle Security
Alarm 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 Vehicle Security Alarm.
Vehicle Security Alarm Manual Override
The Vehicle Security Alarm will not arm if you lock the
doors using the manual door lock plunger.
