VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the hood,
liftgate, liftgate flipper glass, vehicle doors for
unauthorized entry, and the ignition switch for
unauthorized operation. If something triggers
the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will pre-
vent the vehicle from starting and provide the
following audio and visual signals: the horn will
pulse, the headlights will flash, the park lights
will flash, and the Vehicle Security Light in the
instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm the System
Vehicles Not Equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go
Remove the key from the ignition switch and
either press a power door lock switch while the
driver or passenger door is open, or press the
LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter. After the last door is closed,
or if all doors are closed, the Vehicle Security
Alarm will arm itself in about 16 seconds.
During that time, the Vehicle Security Light will
flash. If it does not illuminate, the Vehicle Secu-
rity Alarm is not arming. Also, if you open a door
during the arming period, the Vehicle Security
Alarm will cancel the arming process. If you
wish to rearm the Vehicle Security Alarm after
closing the door, you must repeat one of the
previously-described arming sequences.
Vehicles Equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go
Press the Keyless Enter-N-Go Start/Stop button
until the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) indicates that the vehicle ignition is
“OFF” (refer to “Starting Procedures” in “Start-
ing And Operating” for further information).
Then either press the power door LOCK switch
15

while the driver or passenger door is open,
press the lock button on the front driver or
passenger door handle with a valid key fob in
range, or press the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) transmitter LOCK button (refer to “Pas-
sive Entry System” in “Things To Know Before
Starting Your Vehicle” for further information).
To Disarm the System
Vehicles Not Equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go
Either press the UNLOCK button on the RKE
transmitter, or insert a valid ignition key into the
ignition switch, and turn the key to the ON/RUN
position.
NOTE:
•The driver’s door key cylinder cannot arm
or disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
• When the Vehicle Security Alarm is
armed, the interior power door lock
switches will not unlock the doors. Vehicles Equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go
Either press the UNLOCK button on the RKE
transmitter, pull on the front driver or passenger
door handle (refer to “Passive Entry System” in
“Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle”
for further information) with a valid key fob in
range, or press the Keyless Enter-N-Go Start/
Stop button (requires at least one valid Key Fob
in the vehicle), or insert a valid Key Fob into the
ignition switch (if the Start/Stop button is re-
moved) and rotate it to the ON/RUN position.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to pro-
tect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will
give you a false alarm. If one of the previously-
described arming sequences has occurred,
the Vehicle Security Alarm will arm, regardless
of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you
remain in the vehicle and open a door, the
alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed, and the
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle Security Alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected. The exterior lights will
flash, the horn will sound, and the ignition will
not start the vehicle. If this occurs, disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm.
ILLUMINATED ENTRYThe interior lights come on when you open any
door or use the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter to unlock any door. They will remain
on for approximately 30 seconds after all doors
are closed then fade to off.
The lights also will fade to off if you turn on the
ignition after you close all the doors. Refer to
“Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/
Personal Settings (Customer-Programmable
Features)” in “Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
NOTE:
None of the courtesy lights will operate if the
dimmer control is in the “defeat” position
(extreme downward position), unless the
overhead map/reading lights are turned on
manually.

NOTE:
•Tires heat up during normal driving con-
ditions. Heat will cause the tire pressure
to increase from 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa)
during normal driving conditions. Refer to
“Tires-General Information/Tire Inflation
Pressures” in “Starting And Operating”
for additional information.
• Your system can be set to display pres-
sure units in PSI, kPa, or BAR.
Keyless Enter-N-Go Display —
If Equipped
When the ENGINE START/STOP button is
pressed to change ignition switch positions, the
Keyless Enter-N-Go icon momentarily appears
in the lower right corner of the EVIC display
showing the new ignition switch position.
Refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go” in “Starting And
Operating” for more information. NOTE:
Under certain conditions, the display may
be superseded by another display of higher
priority. But when the ignition switch posi-
tion is changed, the display always re-
appears.
Compass / Temperature DisplayThe compass readings indicate the direction
the vehicle is facing. The EVIC will display one
of eight compass readings and the outside
temperature.
NOTE:
The system will display the last known out-
side temperature when starting the vehicle
and may need to be driven several minutes
before the updated temperature is dis-
played. Engine temperature can also affect
the displayed temperature, therefore tem-
perature readings are not updated when the
vehicle is not moving.Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which elimi-
nates the need to manually reset the compass.
When the vehicle is new, the compass may
appear erratic and the EVIC will display CAL
until the compass is calibrated. You may also
calibrate the compass by completing one or
more 360–degree turns (in an area free from
large metal or metallic objects) until the CAL
indicator displayed in the EVIC turns off. The
compass will now function normally.
NOTE:
A good calibration requires a level surface
and an environment free from large metallic
objects such as buildings, bridges, under-
ground cables, railroad tracks, etc.

could be seriously or fatally injured. Do not
leave the key fob in the ignition switch. A child
could operate power windows, other controls,
or move the vehicle.

PARK position before you can start the engine.
Apply the brakes before shifting into any driv-
ing gear.
CAUTION!
Damage to the transmission may occur if the
following precautions are not observed:
•Shift into PARK only after the vehicle has
come to a complete stop.
• Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop and
the engine is at idle speed.
