To Disarm the System
To disarm the system, you will need to press the “Un-
lock” button on the remote keyless entry transmitter or
turn the ignition key to the RUN position. If something
has triggered the system in your absence, the horn will
sound three times when you unlock the doors. Check the
vehicle for tampering.
NOTE:On vehicles equipped with Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE), there will not be a door lock cylinder on the
front passenger door, rear doors, or rear swing gate.
Therefore, you will be unable to disarm the system with
a manual unlock of the passenger or rear doors.
The Security Alarm System is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
system will arm unexpectedly. If you remain in the
vehicle and lock the doors with the transmitter, once the
system is armed (after 16 seconds), when you pull the
door handle to exit the alarm will sound. If this occurs,press the “Unlock” button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter to disarm the system. You may also acciden-
tally disarm the system by unlocking the driver’s door
with the key and then locking it. The door will be locked
but the Security Alarm will not arm.
REAR SWING GATE
The swing gate can be unlocked using the remote keyless
entry, or by activating the power door lock switches
located on the front doors.
WARNING!
To avoid injury stand back when opening. Glass will
automatically rise.
