for 30 seconds and the hazard warning
flasher will flash for five minutes.
Any further attempts to perform one of the
above will trigger the alarm again.
Arming the Alarm
To arm the alarm, lock your vehicle. See

Disarming the Alarm
Disarm and silence the alarm by unlocking
the doors with the key and switching the

pedestrians but also detects objects like
vehicles and bikes. Fast vehicles, stationary
objects and small objects like birds may also
be ignored.
Note: The Police Perimeter Alert System
feature does not function outside of Park

moving dots on the systems instrument
cluster display.
Once the system detects approaching
objects crossing the selected range
perimeter, the vehicle sounds a tone, and
may roll up the windows and lock the
doors.
The system may also activate the rear view
camera if the display is in the Information
and Entertainment screen.

Object Detection
Note: A pedestrian near large obstructions
such as vehicles or walls may not be
detected until the person moves away from

mud, precipitation, repair compound,
stickers, graphics, bumper guards, trailers,
or bicycle/cargo racks - in front of the
sensors can cause system sensing
degradation.

sensors located behind the rear bumper
on both sides of your vehicle. The sensors
will perform best if the vehicle is parked in
an open area without large obstructions
or walls nearby. System Error
