The perimeter anti-theft system will help protect your vehicle doors,
hood and trunk from unauthorized entry.
When the vehicle is armed the power door locks and remote trunk
release control are disabled. These will not work until the vehicle is

If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensureALL key fobs(remote entry transmitters) are brought to the
dealership, to aid in troubleshooting.

unauthorized entry. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will
flash the turn signal lamps and the theft indicator lamp and will sound

of the following actions will arm the alarm system:

²Open a door and press the power door lock control.
²Lock all doors with the key.
The system will wait 20 seconds after one of the arming actions is
performed before allowing an alarm to go off.

instrument panel will flash briefly every two seconds to indicate the
perimeter alarm system is protecting your vehicle.
