Keyfob operation:
●Push the
button on the keyfob.
All doors lock. The hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once to indicate
all doors are locked.
● When the
button is pushed with
all doors locked, the hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once as a re-
minder that the doors are already locked.
The horn may or may not beep. Refer to
“Silencing the horn beep feature” (vehicles
without navigation system) in the “Pre-
driving checks and adjustments” section or
“Vehicle electronic systems” (vehicles with

heater, air conditioner, audio and phone sys-
tems” section.
4. Confirm that the
indicator light comes
on. The
light stays on for about 30
seconds. The vehicle security system is now
pre-armed. After about 30 seconds the ve-
hicle security system automatically shifts
into the armed phase. The
light begins
to flash once every 3 seconds. If, during the
30-second pre-arm time period, the door is
unlocked by the key or the keyfob, or the
ignition switch is placed to ACC or ON, the
system will not arm. ●
If the key is turned slowly when locking
the door, the system may not arm. Fur-
thermore, if the key is turned beyond
the vertical position toward the unlock
position to remove the key, the system
may be disarmed when the key is re-
moved. If the indicator light fails to
glow for a period of time, unlock the
door once and lock it again.
●
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will arm
with all doors closed and locked with the
ignition switch in the OFF position.
● The lockable bedside storage com-
partment (if so equipped) is not pro-
tected by the vehicle security system.

● The alarm automatically turns off after a pe-
riod of time. However, the alarm reactivates if
the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarm
can be shut off by unlocking the driver’s door
with the key or by pressing the
button
on the keyfob. The alarm is activated by:
● opening a door without using the key or
keyfob (even if the door is unlocked by using
