VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security system monitors the vehicle doors,
hood, tailgate, and the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition for
unauthorized operation. While the Vehicle Security sys-
tem is armed, interior switches for door locks and tail-
gate release are disabled. If something triggers the
alarm, the Vehicle Security system will provide the fol-
lowing audible and visible signals:
•
The horn will pulse
•
The turn signals will flash
•
The Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster
will flash
TO ARM THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to arm the Vehicle Security system:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is placed in the OFF
position.
○
For vehicles equipped with Keyless Entry, make
sure the vehicle’s keyless ignition system is OFF.
2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the
vehicle:
○
Push the lock button on the interior power door
lock switch with the driver and/or passenger
door open.
○
Push the lock button on the exterior Passive
Entry door handle with a valid key fob available
in the same exterior zone
page 23.
○
Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
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 23.
•
Cycle the ignition out of the OFF position to disarm
the system.
NOTE:
•
The driver's door key cylinder cannot arm or disarm
the Vehicle Security system. Use of the door key cyl-
inder when the system is armed will sound the
alarm when the door is opened.
•
The Vehicle Security system remains armed when
the power tailgate (if equipped) is opened using the
tailgate button on the key fob.
•
If Passive Entry (if equipped) is used to unlock the
tailgate, the Vehicle Security system is disarmed
and the rest of the vehicle doors will remain locked
unless all doors are set to unlock on first press
within Uconnect Settings.
•
When the Vehicle Security system is armed, the inte-
rior power door lock switches will not unlock the
doors.
The Vehicle Security system is designed to protect your
vehicle. However, you can create conditions where the
system will give you a false alarm. If one of the previ-
ously described arming sequences has occurred, the
Vehicle Security system will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle
and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the Vehicle Security system.
If the Vehicle Security system is armed and the battery
becomes disconnected, the Vehicle Security system will
remain armed when the battery is reconnected; the
exterior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security system.
REARMING OF THE SYSTEM
If something triggers the alarm and no action is taken
to disarm it, the Vehicle Security system will turn the
horn off after a 29 second cycle (with five seconds
between cycles and up to eight cycles if the trigger
remains active) and then rearm itself.
