this button and the vehicle security alarm
will sound.
To activate the PANIC function, push and
hold the PANIC button for at least one
second. When the panic alarm is active,
the headlights turn on, the turn signals
flash, the horn honks intermittently, and
all interior adjustable lights turn on. Thepanic alarm will remain active for three
minutes, and can be deactivated:By pushing the PANIC button again.

automatic transmission into PARK, apply
the parking brake, turn the engine OFF,
remove the key fob from the vehicle and
lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle
unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously
or fatally injured. Children should be warned
not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal
or the gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to
children. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat
build-up may cause serious injury or death.

Irregular Operation
If the key code is not recognized during
starting, the Engine Immobilizer
Failure/Break-in Attempt
icon is
displayed on the instrument panel (refer
to "Warning Lights And Messages" in
"Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel"). This condition leads to the engine
turning off after two seconds. In this
case, switch the ignition to STOP and
then to ON; if it is still blocked, try with
the other keys provided. If it is still not
possible to start the engine, contact an
authorized dealer.
If the Engine Immobilizer Failure/
Break-in Attempt
icon is displayed
while driving, this means that the system
is running a self-diagnosis (e.g. due to a
voltage drop). If the display persists,
contact an authorized dealer. Note:
Do not tamper with the Engine
Immobilizer system. Any modifications
or alterations could cause the protection
function to be deactivated.
The Engine Immobilizer system is not
compatible with certain aftermarket
remote starting systems. The use of
these devices could cause problems
when starting, as well as the
deactivation of the protection function.
All keys provided with the vehicle
have been programmed in accordance
with the electronics on the vehicle itself.
Each key has its own code which must
be stored by the system's control unit.
Contact an authorized dealer to have
new keys (up to eight) stored with a
code.
SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
Alarm Activation
The vehicle security alarm monitors the
vehicle doors and ignition for
unauthorized operation. When the vehicle
security alarm is activated, interior
switches for door locks are disabled. The
system provides both audible and visible
signals.
While armed, the alarm will sound in the
following scenarios:
Opening of doors/hood/liftgate
(perimeter protection)
Operation of ignition with a key which
is not validated
Cutting of the battery cables
Movement inside the passenger
compartment (volumetric protection — if
equipped)
Unexpected lifting/tilting of the
vehicle (anti-lift protection — if
equipped)
Activation of the alarm triggers the
acoustic warning and the turn signals.
Note: The alarm system is activated by
the Engine Immobilizer system, which is
automatically activated when you get out
of the vehicle with the key fob and lock
the doors.

To Arm The Alarm
With the doors, hood, and liftgate closed
and the keyless ignition system placed in
the STOP position, push and release the
lock button on the key fob. The alarm can
also be armed by pushing the Passive

"Getting To Know Your Vehicle” for
further information.
When the alarm is armed, the warning
lights on the door handle trim remain on.
The activation of the alarm is preceded
by a self-diagnosis stage: if a fault is
detected, the system emits a further
acoustic signal.If a second acoustic signal is emitted
after the alarm is already armed, wait
about four seconds and disarm the alarm
by pushing the unlock switch. Verify that
the doors, hood, and liftgate are closed
correctly. Then, reactivate the system by
pushing the lock switch.
If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even
when the doors, hood, and liftgate are
correctly closed, a fault has occurred in
system operation. In this case, contact an
authorized dealer.
To Disarm The Alarm

disarm the alarm. While disarming, the
following operations are performed:
Two brief flashes of the turn signals (if
programmed).
Two brief acoustic signals (if

Passive Entry System, by grasping one of
the Passive Entry front door handles with
a valid key fob in hand to unlock. For
further information refer to "Passive
Entry" in "Doors."
Note: The alarm does not disarm when
the doors are unlocked by inserting the
blade of the emergency key into the door
handle lock cylinder.
Anti-Lift Protection — If Equipped
The vehicle security alarm system
monitors the doors and liftgate for
unauthorized entry and the ignition
switch for unauthorized operation.

Owner’s Manual Supplement for Passive
Entry Settings).
Note: The key fob may not be able to be
detected by the vehicle keyless-go

these devices may block the key fob’s
wireless signal and prevent the
keyless-go system from starting the
vehicle.
Grasping the handle of the driver's door
unlocks the driver's side door, or all doors
depending on the mode set using the
Information and Entertainment System
(refer to the Information and
Entertainment System Owner’s Manual
Supplement for Passive Entry Settings). Note:
If wearing gloves, or if it has rained
and the door handle is wet, the activation
sensitivity of the Passive Entry function
may be reduced, resulting in a longer

Automatic High Beam Headlights — If
Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlights
system provides increased forward
lighting at night by automating high beam
control through the use of a digital
camera mounted on the windshield. This
camera detects vehicle specific light and
automatically turns from high beams to
low beams until the approaching vehicle
is out of view.
This function is enabled with the
Information and Entertainment System,
and can only be activated with the light
switch turned to the
(auto) position.
If the high beam headlights are on, the
blue icon/warning light
will illuminate
in the instrument panel.
When the speed is higher than 37 mph
(60 km/h) and the function is active, the
lights will turn off if the multifunction
lever is pushed again.
When the speed is lower than 15 mph
(25 km/h) and the function is active, the

operation) with intense rain.
Activation
Rotating the wiper switch to position
oractivates the rain sensor.
The activation of the rain sensor system
is done by tapping the wiper stalk
upwards while the switch is in the
orposition.
The variation in sensitivity during rain
sensor operation is also signaled by a
stroke of the wiper (command acquired
and implemented). This stroke is also
executed with the windshield dry.
If the windshield washer is used with the
rain sensor activated, the normal washing
cycle is performed, after which the rain
sensor resumes its normal automatic
operation.
Note: Keep the glass in the sensor area
clean.
Deactivation
Use the wiper switch or cycle the ignition
to STOP mode.
In the event of malfunction of the rain
sensor while it is active, the windshield
wiper operates intermittently at a speed
consistent with the sensitivity setting of
the rain sensor, whether or not there is

located on the right side of the steering
column. To use the headlight washers, pull
the stalk toward you and release it. The
headlight washers will spray a timed
high-pressure spray of washer fluid onto
each headlight lens. In addition, the
windshield washers will spray the
