doors using the manual door lock, or an emergency
lock lever
page 25.
DELUXE VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Deluxe Vehicle Security system monitors the doors,
hood latch, and liftgate for unauthorized entry and the
ignition switch for unauthorized operation. The system
also includes a dual function intrusion sensor and
vehicle tilt sensor. The intrusion sensor monitors the
vehicle interior for motion. The vehicle tilt sensor moni-
tors the vehicle for any tilting actions (tow away, tire
removal, ferry transport, etc.).
If a perimeter violation triggers the security system, the
horn will sound for 29 seconds and the exterior lights
will flash followed by approximately five seconds of no
activity. This will continue for eight cycles if no action is
taken to disarm the system.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to arm the security system:
1. If any doors, windows, or the sunroof (if equipped)
are open, close them.
2. Make sure the vehicle ignition system is OFF.
3. Perform one of the following methods to lock the
vehicle:
○
Push lock on the interior power door lock switch
with the driver and/or passenger door open.
○
Touch the lock button on the exterior Passive
Entry door handle with a key fob available in the
same exterior zone
page 26.
○
Push the lock button on the key fob.
NOTE:
•
When armed, the interior motion sensor detects
movement within the vehicle's interior, including
moving objects (i.e. people and pets) and air cur-
rents through open windows or the sunroof. The
windows and sunroof should be closed, and moving
objects should not be left in the vehicle when the
intrusion detection is armed, otherwise false alarms
can occur.
•
Once the security system is armed, it remains in
that state until you disarm it by following either of
the disarming procedures described. If a power loss
occurs after arming the system, you must disarm
the system after restoring power to prevent alarm
activation.
•
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion detector)
actively monitors your vehicle every time you arm
the Vehicle Security system. If you prefer, you can
turn off the ultrasonic intrusion sensor when arming
the Vehicle Security system. To do so, push the lock
button on the key fob three times within 15 seconds
of arming the system (while the Vehicle Security
Light is flashing rapidly). The vehicle will remain
locked but will disable the alarm in the case of
repeated false alarms due to ambient conditions.
TO DISARM THE SYSTEM
The Vehicle Security system can be disarmed using any
of the following methods:
•
Push the unlock button on the key fob.
•
Grab the Passive Entry door handle to unlock the
door
page 26.
•
Cycle the vehicle ignition system out of the OFF posi-
tion by pushing the START/STOP ignition button
(requires at least one valid key fob in the vehicle).
NOTE:
•
The driver's door key cylinder and the liftgate button
on the key fob cannot arm or disarm the Vehicle
Security system.
•
The Vehicle Security system remains armed during
power liftgate entry. If a valid key fob or Passive
Entry is used to open the liftgate, the motion sens-
ing will be suppressed until after the liftgate is
closed. If someone enters the opened vehicle
through the liftgate, then opens any door, the alarm
will sound.
•
When the Vehicle Security system is armed, the inte-
rior power door lock switches will not unlock the
doors.
•
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion detector)
actively monitors your vehicle every time you arm
the Vehicle Security system. If you prefer, you can
turn off the ultrasonic intrusion sensor when arming
the Vehicle Security system. To do so, push the lock
button on the key fob three times within 15 seconds
of arming the system (while the Vehicle Security
Light is flashing rapidly). The vehicle will remain
locked but will disable the alarm in the case of
repeated false alarms due to ambient conditions.
