or the door is not unlocked by pressingK
on the remote key during the 10-second
pre-alarm, the alarm will be activated.
The alarm will also be activated if the
passenger door, the hatch/trunk, or the
hood is opened without first disarming the
system. When the alarm is activated, the
turn signals flash and the horn sounds for
about 30 seconds. The alarm system will
then re-arm to monitor for the next
unauthorized event.
Disarming the Alarm System
To disarm the alarm system or turn off the
alarm if it has been activated, do one of the
following:
.PressKon the remote key.
.Unlock the vehicle using the Keyless
Access system.
.Start the vehicle.
To avoid setting off the alarm by accident:
.Lock the vehicle after all occupants have
left the vehicle and both doors are closed.
.Always unlock a door with the remote
key or use the Keyless Access system.
Unlocking the driver door with the key will
not disarm the system or turn off the alarm.
How to Detect a Tamper Condition
IfKis pressed on the remote key and the
horn chirps and the lights flash three times,
a previous alarm occurred while the system
was armed.
If the alarm has been activated, a message
will appear on the DIC.
Inclination Sensor and Intrusion Sensor
In addition to the standard theft-deterrent
system features, this system may also have
an inclination sensor and intrusion sensor.
The inclination sensor can activate the alarm
if it senses movement of the vehicle, such
as a change in vehicle orientation.
The intrusion sensor monitors the vehicle
interior, and can activate the alarm if it
senses unauthorized entry into the vehicle’s
interior. Do not allow passengers or pets to
remain in the vehicle when the intrusion
sensor is activated.
Before arming the theft-deterrent system
and activating the intrusion sensor:
.Make sure both doors and windows are
completely closed.
.Secure any loose items such as
sunshades.
.Make sure there are no obstructions
blocking the sensors.
Intrusion and Inclination Sensors Disable
Switch
It is recommended that the intrusion and
inclination sensors be deactivated if pets are
left in the vehicle or if the vehicle is being
transported.
When the roof panel is off, or the
convertible top is down, the intrusion
system is turned off.
From the infotainment home screen, touch
Settings > Vehicle > Motion Sensor to turn
the system off. The indicator light will
display momentarily, indicating that these
sensors have been disabled until the next
time the alarm system is armed.

1X :For a single wipe, briefly move the
wiper lever down. For several wipes, hold
the wiper lever down.
f: Pull the windshield wiper lever
toward you to spray washer fluid and
activate the wipers. The wipers will continue
until the lever is released or the maximum
wash time is reached. When the lever is
released, additional wipes may occur
depending on how long the windshield
washer had been activated. See Washer
Fluid 0262 for information on filling the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
Clear snow and ice from the wiper blades
and windshield before using them. If frozen
to the windshield, carefully loosen or thaw
them. Damaged blades should be replaced.
See Wiper Blade Replacement 0270.
Heavy snow or ice can overload the wiper
motor.
{Warning
In freezing weather, do not use the
washer until the windshield is warmed.
Otherwise the washer fluid can form ice
on the windshield, blocking your vision.
{Warning
Before driving the vehicle, always clear
snow and ice from the hood, windshield,
washer nozzles, roof, and rear of the
vehicle, including all lamps and windows.
Reduced visibility from snow and ice
buildup could lead to a crash.
Wiper Parking
If the ignition is turned off while the wipers
are on LO, HI, or INT, they will
immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper lever is then moved
to OFF before the driver door is opened or
within 10 minutes, the wipers will restart
and move to the base of the windshield.
If the ignition is turned off while the wipers
are performing wipes due to windshield
washing, the wipers continue to run until
they reach the base of the windshield.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass display on
the Instrument Cluster. The compass receives
its heading and other information from the
Global Positioning System (GPS) antenna,
Electronic Stability Control, and vehicle
speed information.
The compass system is designed to operate
for a certain number of miles or degrees of
turn before needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass display shows
CAL, drive the vehicle for a short distance in
an open area where it can receive a GPS
signal. The compass system will
automatically determine when a GPS signal
is restored and provide a heading again.
Clock
Set the time and date using the
infotainment system. See "Time/Date" under
Settings 0142.

position of the vehicle.
This system might not be available or
interference can occur if any of the
following are true:
.Signals are obstructed by tall buildings,
trees, large trucks, or a tunnel.
.Satellites are being repaired or improved.
For more information if the GPS is not
functioning properly, see Problems with
Route Guidance 0128.

or long, straight roads.
.The vehicle is approaching a tall building
or a large vehicle.

freeway.
.The vehicle has been transferred by a
vehicle carrier or a ferry.

.This is the first navigation use after the
map data is updated.
.The 12-volt battery has been disconnected
for several days.
.The vehicle is driving in heavy traffic
where driving is at low speeds, and the
vehicle is stopped and started repeatedly.
Problems with Route Guidance
Inappropriate route guidance can occur
under one or more of the following
conditions:
.The turn was not made on the road
indicated.
.Route guidance might not be available
when using automatic rerouting for the
next right or left turn.
.The route might not be changed when
using automatic rerouting.
