blinking on and off, indicating that the system is armed.
NOTE
The system will be armed even if the engine hood is open,

cator (located in the front center of the dashboard) is illu-
minated, all doors and the rear hatch or trunk lid are
unlocked by remote control transmitter.

closed. If this happens, rearm the system as described
above.

The trunk lid can only be opened by remote control trans-
mitter without triggering or disarming the system even
after the system has been armed. When it is closed, the
system will be rearmed.

The driver should not arm the system until first confirm-
ing that all passengers have left the vehicle. If the driver
arms the system with passenger(s) in the vehicle, the
alarm may be activated when the passenger(s) open the
