GMC 2011 Canyon - Manual (Page 36)

Black plate (10,1) GMC Canyon Owner Manual - 2011
2-10 Keys, Doors and Windows
Here is how to avoid setting off the
alarm by accident:
. If you do not want to activate
the theft-deterrent system, the
vehicle should be locked with
the door key after the doors are
closed.
. Always unlock a door with the
RKE transmitter. Unlocking a
door any other way will set off
the alarm.
If you set off the alarm by accident,
you can turn off the alarm by
pressing UNLOCK on the RKE
transmitter. The alarm will not stop
if you try to unlock a door any
other way.
Testing the Alarm
To test the alarm:
1. From inside the vehicle, activate
the system by locking the doors
with the RKE transmitter.
2. Unlock the door with the manual
door lock and open the door.
This should set off the alarm.
3. To turn the alarm off, press the
UNLOCK button on the RKE
transmitter or start the engine.
If the alarm does not sound when it
should but the lights flash, check to
see if the horn works. The horn fuse
may be blown. To replace the fuse,
see Fuses and Circuit Breakers on
page 10‑43.
If the alarm does not sound or the
front turn signal lamps do not flash,
see your dealer for service.

Immobilizer Operation
(PASS-Key III+
Canada Only)
This vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the key is removed from the
ignition.
The system is automatically
disarmed when the key is turned
to ON/RUN.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The security light comes on if
there is a problem with arming or
disarming the theft-deterrent
system.
The key uses a transponder that
matches an immobilizer control unit
in the vehicle. Only the correct key
starts the vehicle. If the key is ever
damaged, the vehicle may not start.
