SECURITY SYSTEM FUNCTIONS
WhentheSecuritySystemisArmed
• All interior entry points (doors, hood & trunk/tailgate) are monitored for unauthorized entry.
• When the security system is triggered, the horn sounds and the hazard or parking lights ash in a random pattern.
The alarm cycle lasts for 30 seconds. At the end of the 30 second cycle, the security system will pause for 10 seconds and then
begin monitoring for any further alarm trigger conditions. If another alarm condition is detected, the system will begin another
alarm cycle. The system will trigger up to 5 times for each different alarm condition (i.e. door open or tailgate open). After the
5th trigger the system will consider any further trigger, on the same entry point, a faulty trigger and prevent it from triggering the
security system.
Pre-ArmMode
The security system will alert you to an open entry point by NOT ashing the hazard or parking lights when you attempt to
arm the security system by pressing the LOCK button on the remote control transmitter. If an entry point is open when
the system attempts to arm, the system will wait up to 5 minutes for the open entry point to be closed. If the entry
point is still open after 5 minutes the system will go ahead and arm the system, ignoring the open entry point until
after it is closed. The entry point will be monitored after it has been closed.
AttemptedTheftAlert
The security system will alert you that a trigger occurred while you were away from the vehicle by honking the horn four times
when you disarm your security system.
TripID
The trip ID feature will let you know what entry point caused the security system to trigger
while you were away from your vehicle. After disarming the system, enter the vehicle
and press the override / programming button (located on the driver’s side, secured to
the remote start wire harness) before turning on the ignition key. The horn will honk a
number of times to indicate which entry point, in the chart to the right, triggered the alarm.
