ANTI-THEFT ALARM
Alarm System (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have one of the following
alarm systems:
• Perimeter Alarm.
• Anti-Theft Alarm with Interior and
Inclination Sensors.
Perimeter Alarm
The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against
unauthorized access to your vehicle
through the doors, luggage compartment
and the hood. Interior Sensors
The interior sensors are in the overhead
console.
When you lock your vehicle and arm the
alarm, the sensors are designed to detect
any movement inside your vehicle.
Note:
Do not cover the interior sensors.
Inclination Sensors
When you lock your vehicle and arm the
alarm, the sensors are designed to detect
an attempt to raise your vehicle, for
example to remove a wheel or to tow it
away.
Triggering the Alarm
Once armed, the alarm is triggered in any
of the following ways:
• If someone opens a door, the liftgate
or the hood without a valid key or
remote control.
• If you switch the ignition on without a
valid key.
• If the interior sensors detect movement
within your vehicle.
If the alarm is triggered, the alarm horn will
sound for 30 seconds and the hazard
warning flashers will flash for five minutes.
Any further attempts to carry out one of
the above will trigger the alarm again.
Full Guard and Reduced Guard
Full Guard
Full guard is the standard setting.
In full guard, the interior sensors are on
when you arm the alarm.
Note: Do not arm the alarm with full guard
if passengers, animals or other moving
objects are inside your vehicle.

When you shift into neutral (N), the system
only provides visual indication if your
vehicle is moving at a speed of
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or below.
For example, your vehicle is moving on a
slope, and the system detects an object
moving toward your vehicle. When you
stop your vehicle, visual indication turns
off after four seconds.
If the system is not available, the side
distance indicator blocks do not display.
ACTIVE PARK ASSIST WARNING:
You must remain in
your vehicle when the system turns on.
At all times, you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising the
system and intervening, if required.
Failure to take care may result in the loss
of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death. WARNING:
The sensors may not
detect objects in heavy rain or other
conditions that cause interference. WARNING:
You are responsible
for controlling your vehicle at all times.
The system is designed to be an aid and
does not relieve you of your responsibility
to drive with due care and attention.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
Active park assist is a multi-step process
and may require you to shift the
transmission multiple times. Follow the
onscreen instructions until the parking
maneuver is complete. If you are uncomfortable with the proximity
to any vehicle or object, you may choose
to override the system by grabbing the
steering wheel, or by taking full control of
your vehicle after pressing the active park
assist button.
Keep your hands, hair, clothing and any
loose items clear of the steering wheel
when using active park assist.
The sensors are on the front and rear
bumpers.
Note:
Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt.
Note: Do not cover up the sensors.
Note: Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects.
Note: The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic waves.
The sensors may falsely detect objects due
to ultrasonic interference caused by, for
example motorcycle exhausts, truck air
brakes or horns.
Note: If you change any tires, the system
must recalibrate and may not correctly
operate for a short time.
The system may not correctly operate in
any of the following conditions:
• You use a spare tire or a tire that is
significantly worn more than the other
tires.
• One or more tires are incorrectly
inflated.
• You try to park on a tight curve.
• Something passes between the front
bumper and the parking space. For
example, a pedestrian or cyclist.
