10 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

NOTE:Changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors
and ignition for unauthorized operation. When the Ve-
hicle Security Alarm is activated, interior switches for
door locks are disabled. The system provides both au-
dible and visible signals, for the first three minutes the
horn will sound and the turn signal lights will flash. For
an additional 15 minutes only the turn signal lights will
flash.
Rearming Of The System
The Vehicle Security Alarm will rearm itself after the 15
additional minutes of turn lamps flashing, if the system
has not been disabled. If the condition which initiated the alarm is still present, the system will ignore that condi-
tion and monitor the remaining doors and ignition.
To Arm The System
To Arm The System The Vehicle Security Alarm will set
when you use the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter to lock the doors. If a door or the bonnet is not
properly shut, it will be excluded from the perimetral
testing by the alarm system.
To Disarm The System
Use the RKE transmitter to unlock the door and disarm
the system.
The Vehicle Security Alarm will also disarm if a pro-
grammed Sentry Key® is inserted into the ignition
switch. To exit the alarming mode, press the RKE trans-
mitter UNLOCK button, or insert a programmed Sentry
Key® into the ignition switch.
