To Set the Alarm The alarm will set when you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to lock the doors and liftgate or when you use the power door lock switch while the door is open. After all the doors are locked and closed, a red light on top of the instrument panel will flash rapidly for about 16 seconds to signal that the system is arming.

If something has triggered the system in your absence, the horn will sound three times when you unlock the doors. Check the vehicle for tampering.
