Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Last Door Closed Locking (Option)
If you have power door locks, you can program a last
door closed locking feature for your vehicle. This feature
allows for
a delayed locking of the doors so that you or
your passengers may exit the vehicle after you’ve pressed
the power door lock switch and still have the doors
locked once everyone has gotten out of the vehicle.
When the power door lock switch is pressed, a chime
will sound three times, indicating that last door closed
locking has been activated. Pressing the LOCK switch
again will lock the doors immediately. Pressing the
UNLOCK switch will cancel a previously requested last
door closed locking.
This feature is shipped from the factory
in the off
position.
To turn this feature on, see “Feature
Customization” in the Index.
Lockout Prevention (Option)
To protect you from locking your keys in the vehicle,
this feature stops the power door locks from locking
when the keys are in the ignition and a door is open.
If the power
lock switch is pressed when a door is open,
a chime will sound five times as a reminder
to take the
keys out of
the ignition before locking the door. This
feature is shipped from the factory in the on position.
If you would like to turn this feature off, see “Feature
Customization”
in the Index.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your keys, open your
door and
set the locks from inside. Then get out and
close the door.
Remote Lock Control (Option)
If your Chevrolet has this option, you can lock and
unlock your
doors or unlock your trunk from up to
30 feet (9 m) away using the key chain transmitter
supplied with your vehicle.

Remote Lock Control transmitter that a command has
been received by the Remote Lock Control receiver.
The parking lamps will flash
on every lock and unlock
command and the horn will sound only if the LOCK
button is pushed twice within five seconds. This allows
for silent operation of locking and unlocking, unless a
confirming horn chirp is desired. Other options may be
selected for this feature (see “Feature Customization” in
the Index).
Matching Transmitter@) To Your Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to prevent another
transmitter from unlocking your vehicle. If
a transmitter is
lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through
your dealer. Remember to bring any remaining transmitters
with you when you go
to your dealer. When the dealer
matches the replacement transmitter to your vehicle, any
remaining transmitters must
also be matched. Once the
new transmitter is coded, the lost transmitter will not
unlock your vehicle. Each vehicle can have only four
transmitters matched
to it.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Arming the System
The alarm system can be armed to detect break-ins by
locking your vehicle using the Remote Lock Control
transmitter or by locking the doors with the power door
lock switch. Passive arming is also available, if
you
would like the system to arm all by itself after the doors
have been closed for a
short time. When the system is
armed, a red light will flash briefly once every two
seconds. (Note: If you return to your vehicle and the red
light is flashing two brief flashes every two seconds, the
system is armed and the shock sensor had triggered a
two minute alarm. If the red light is flashing three times
every two seconds, the system
is armed and there was an
intrusion that sounded the alarm). Horn chirps and
parking lamp flashes can
be set to your choice.
Remote Lock Control Transmitter Locking
If all the doors are closed, locking the vehicle this way
will immediately arm the system. The horn will chirp
twice and the parking lamps will flash, confirming that
the system is armed.
If any door is open when the
transmitter LOCK button is pressed, the system goes
into an armed wait mode, waiting for the doors
to close.
Once they are closed, the system will arm, chirp the
horns twice and flash the parking lamps.
If the hatch is
open or ajar at the time the system is arming, the horn
will only chirp once.
Power Door Lock Switch Locking
If any door is open when the power door lock switch
is pressed, the system goes into an armed wait mode,
waiting for the doors to close. Once they
are closed, the
system will arm and flash the parking lamps.
If all of the
doors are closed when the lock switch
is pressed, the
system assumes you are inside of the vehicle,
so it will
not arm. Note: Locking the doors by using the manual
door locks will not arm the system.
Passive Arming
If the ignition was just turned off and a door was
opened, the system will arm six seconds after all doors
are closed, whether or not you lock them. In all other
cases, the system will wait
30 seconds after all doors are
closed before arming, allowing you time to get into the
vehicle and the key in the ignition. The parking lamps
will flash when the system arms.
Disarming the System
There are two ways to disarm the system:
1. Press the UNLOCK button on the Remote Lock
Control transmitter,
OR if the horn chirps two or
three times when
you unlock the car, the alarm
sounded in your absence. Two chirps means that
the shock sensor was set
off and three chirps means

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine that there may have been a blow to the doors or the
hatch areas.
2. Turn the ignition to the RUN position with the
proper key.
For more information on customizing the features
mentioned here,
see “Feature Customization” in
the Index.
Turning Off the Alarm
If you started the alarm by pressing the panic button on
the Remote Lock Control transmitter, you must either
push that button again or turn the ignition switch to the
RUN position to stop the alarm. If
the alarm is sounding due to the shock sensor or a
door or hatch opening, it can be turned off by either
turning the ignition switch with
a proper key inserted or
by pressing any button on the Remote Lock Control
transmitter. If you
use your Remote Lock Control
transmitter
to silence the alarm, additional things will
happen depending upon which button you press.
Pressing the UNLOCK button will turn the
alarm off, will unlock the driver’s door and
disarm the system.
0 Pressing the LOCK button will turn the alarm off,
keep the doors locked and keep the system armed.
0 Pressing the trunk symbol button will turn the alarm
off and will unlock and disarm the hatch only.
0 Pressing the panic button will turn the alarm off,
keep the doors locked and keep the system armed.
If the alarm is sounding because an incorrect ignition
key was used, press any button on the Remote Lock
Control transmitter
to turn the alarm off.
The alarm
will stop by itself after two minutes.
