Anti-Theft Alarm
Alarm System (If Equipped)
Perimeter Alarm (if equipped)
The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against unauthorized access to your vehicle through the doors and the hood.
Triggering the Alarm
Once armed, the alarm is triggered in any of the following ways: - If someone opens a door, the tailgate or the hood without a valid key or remote control.
- If someone switches your vehicle on without a correctly coded key.
If the alarm is triggered, the alarm horn will sound for 30 seconds and the hazard warning flasher will flash for five minutes.
Any further attempts to perform one of the above will trigger the alarm again.
Arming the Alarm
With ignition OFF and doors closed, lock the vehicle via Remote Control or exterior door handle. Alarm will be armed after 20 seconds.
Arming the alarm can also be achieved by locking the vehicle using the trim switches while a side door is open and closing all doors, or using the driver's door cylinder. In these two last cases, alarm will be armed after 20 seconds.
Note:
Alarm will arm due to an auto-relock. See
Doors and Locks.
Disarming the Alarm
Vehicles Without Intelligent Access System
Disarm and silence the alarm by unlocking the doors with the key and switching your vehicle on with a correctly coded key or unlocking the doors with the remote control.
Vehicles with Intelligent Access System
Note:
A valid intelligent access key must be located within the detection range of that door for entry.
Disarm the alarm by performing a intelligent access entry, or switching your vehicle on, or unlocking the vehicle with the remote control.
Disarm the alarm by performing a keyless entry, or switching your vehicle on, or unlocking the vehicle with the remote control.
