exit alarming mode, press the transmitter Unlock button
or start the vehicle with a programmed Sentry Key.

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 transmitter, the alarm
will sound when you pull the door handle to exit.

NOTE:

You may accidentally activate the security sys-

tem (horn sounds and lights flash) by entering the vehicle
without using the key fob to unlock the door(s). The
security system can be disarmed with the key fob’s
UNLOCK button or by inserting a programmed Sentry
Key into the ignition and turning the key to the ON
position.

All interior lights will illuminate in the vehicle when the
doors are unlocked using the key fob.

The interior lights will remain on for 30 seconds after the

the ignition is turned to the ON position or a key fob
LOCK button is pressed.

There is also a battery saver feature that will turn the
interior lights off after 8 minutes if the ignition is OFF
and a door is left open or the dimmer control is in the
interior lights ON position.
