Dodge JOURNEY 2010 - Manual (Page 19)

3. Close all doors. The Vehicle Security Light in the
instrument cluster will flash to signal that the system is
arming. During this period, opening any door or the
liftgate will cancel the arming process.
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 ignition key into the ignition lock
cylinder and turn the key to the ON position.
NOTE:
• Unlocking the doors with the manual door LOCK
plungers or the door LOCK cylinder on the driver’s
door will not disarm the system.
• When the system is armed, the interior power door
LOCK switches will not unlock the doors.
The Security Alarm system is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
system will give you a false alarm. If the previously
described arming sequence has occurred, the system 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 system.
Tamper Alert
If something has triggered the alarm in your absence, the
horn will sound three times when you unlock the doors.
Check the vehicle for tampering.
ILLUMINATED ENTRY
The interior lights will turn on when you press the
UNLOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter or open a door or the liftgate.
