Controls and features Arming the system When armed, this system will help protect your vehicle from unauthorized entry. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the headlamps and/or parking lamps, and will chirp the horn. The system is ready to arm whenever the key is removed from the ignition. Any of the following actions will prearm the alarm system: • Open any door, liftgate or liftgate window and press the power door lock control to lock the doors. • Press the remote entry lock control (doors opened or closed). When you press the lock control twice within three seconds on your remote entry transmitter, the horn will chirp once to let you know that all doors/hood/liftgate and liftgate window are closed. If any of these are not closed, the horn will chirp twice to warn you that a door/hood/liftgate or liftgate window is still open. • Press 7/8 and 9/0 controls on the keyless entry pad at the same time to lock the doors (driver's door must be closed). There is a 20 second countdown when any of the above actions occur before the vehicle becomes ARMED. Each door/hood/liftgate or liftgate window is armed individually, and if any are open, they must be closed for the system to enter the 20 second countdown. The parking lamps will flash once when all doors/hood/liftgate and liftgate window are closed indicating the vehicle is locked and entering the 20 second countdown. 129
