2010 JEEP LIBERTY alarm

Using the PANIC Alarm
NOTE:The PANIC and Security Alarms are quite
different. Please take a moment to activate the PANIC
and the Security modes to hear the differences in the
horn. In case one should go off in the future, you will
need to know which mode has been activated in order to
deactivate it.
To turn the PANIC Alarm feature ON or OFF, press and
hold the PANIC button on the RKE transmitter for at
least one second and release. When the PANIC Alarm is
on, the headlights and turn signal lights will flash, the
horn will pulse on and off, and the illuminated entry
system will turn on. The PANIC Alarm will stay on for three minutes unless
you turn it off by pressing the PANIC button a second
time or if the vehicle speed is 5 mph (8 km/h) or greater.
During the PANIC Mode, the door locks and Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) system will function normally.
PANIC mode will not disarm the Security System on
vehicles so equipped.
NOTE:
You may need to be close to the vehicle when
using the RKE transmitter to turn off the PANIC Alarm
due to the radio frequency noises emitted by the system.
Programming Additional Transmitters
Refer to Sentry Key “Customer Key Programming.”
If you do not have a programmed RKE transmitter,
contact your authorized dealer for details.
24 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

the vehicle is in the Remote Start mode.
•The engine can be started two consecutive times (two

the ignition switch must be cycled to the ON position
before you can repeat the start sequence for a third
cycle.
To Exit Remote Start Mode without Driving the
Vehicle
Press and release the REMOTE START button one time or
allow the engine to run for the entire 15-minute cycle.

28 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

The first stage inflator is triggered immediately during an
impact that requires airbag deployment. The timing of
the second stage determines whether the output force is
low, medium, or high. If a low output is sufficient to meet
the need, the remaining gas in the inflator is expended.
NOTE:The passenger front airbag may not deploy even
when the driver front airbag has if the Occupant Classi-
fication System (refer to Occupant Classification System
in this section) has determined the passenger seat is
empty or is occupied by someone that is classified in the
child size category. This could be a child, teenager, or
even a adult.WARNING!
•Do not put anything on or around the front airbag
covers or attempt to manually open them. You may
damage the airbags and you could be injured
because the airbags may no longer be functional.
These protective covers for the airbag cushions are
designed to open only when the airbags are inflat-
ing.
•Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects
between you and the side airbags; the performance
could be adversely affected and/or objects could
be pushed into you, causing serious injury.
•Do not drill, cut or tamper with the knee bolster in
any way.
•Do not mount any accessories to the knee bolster
such as alarm lights, stereos, citizen band radios,
etc.

WARNING!
•Your motorized door or gate will open and close
while you are training the Universal Transceiver.
Do not train the transceiver if people, pets or other
objects are in the path of the door or gate. Only use
this transceiver with a garage door opener that has
a “stop and reverse” feature as required by Federal
safety standards. This includes most garage door
opener models manufactured after 1982. Do not
use a garage door opener without these safety
features. Call toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or, on the
Internet at www.HomeLink.com for safety infor-
mation or assistance.

WARNING! (Continued)
•Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a dan-
gerous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the garage
while training the transceiver. Exhaust gas can
cause serious injury or death.
