Locks and Security The system is ready to arm whenever the key is out of the ignition. Any of the following actions will arm the alarm system: • Press the remote transmitter lock control one time to arm the system. • Lock all doors using the keypad. • Lock all doors using the interior power lock switch while the driver or passenger door is open and then closed. If all the closures (doors, trunk, hood) are closed, the park lamps will on the remote flash once and the horn will chirp once when the entry transmitter is pressed a second time within five seconds. If any closure is not properly closed, the park lamps will not flash and the horn will chirp twice. The system will wait 20 seconds after one of the arming actions is performed before allowing the alarm to become armed. After the 20-second pre-arm phase, the interior trim remote trunk release control and the power door unlock control are disabled, in order to further protect your vehicle. Disarming the system You can disarm the system by any of the following actions: • Unlock the doors by using the remote entry transmitter. • Unlock the doors using a valid code on the keypad. • Unlock the doors with the key in the key lock cylinder. • Turn the ignition to the 3 (ON) position. 98 2006 Grand Marquis (grn) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
