Arming the System
To arm the system:
.PressQon the keyless access
transmitter.
.Open the door and lock the
door with the power door lock
switch. The security light should
flash. Remove the keyless
access transmitter from inside
the vehicle and close the door.
The security light stops flashing
and stays on. After 30 seconds,
the light should turn off.
The vehicle can be programmed
to automatically lock the doors
and arm the theft-deterrent
system when you exit the
vehicle. See Vehicle
Personalization on page 5‑55.
If a door or the hatch/trunk is
opened without using the keyless
access transmitter, the alarm
goes off. The horn sounds for
two minutes, then goes off to save battery power. The vehicle will not
start without a keyless access
transmitter present.
The theft-deterrent system does not
arm if the driver door is locked with
the power door lock switch after the
doors are closed.
If the keyless access transmitter is
removed from the vehicle while a
passenger is in it, have them lock
the doors after they are closed.
The alarm will not arm, so the
passenger will not set it off.
Testing the Alarm
To test the system:
1. Make sure the trunk lid/hatch is
latched.
2. Lower the window on the driver door.
3. Manually arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait 30 seconds. 5. Reach through the open window
and manually pull the release
lever on the floor.
6. Press the unlock button on the transmitter to turn off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound, check
to see if the horn works. The horn
fuse may be blown. See Fuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 10‑51.
If the horn works, but the alarm
does not go off, see your dealer.
Disarming the System
Press the unlock button on the
keyless access transmitter or
squeeze the door handle sensor
while the transmitter is near the
vehicle to unlock a door. Unlocking
a door any other way sets off the
alarm. If the alarm sounds, press
the unlock button on the keyless
access transmitter to disarm it.
Do not leave the key or device that
disarms or deactivates the theft
deterrent system in the vehicle.

Immobilizer
SeeRadio Frequency Statement on
page 13‑19 for information
regarding Part 15 of the Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) rules and Industry Canada
Standards RSS-210/220/310.
Immobilizer Operation
The vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the ignition is turned off.
The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is turned
to OFF/ACCESSORY or START and
a valid transmitter is found in the
vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The security light comes on if
there is a problem with arming
or disarming the theft-deterrent
system. The system has one or more
keyless access transmitters that are
matched to an immobilizer control
unit in the vehicle. Only a correctly
matched keyless access transmitter
starts the vehicle. The vehicle may
not start if the keyless access
transmitter is damaged.
If the engine does not start and the
security light comes on, there may
be a problem with the immobilizer
system. Press the START button
again.
If the vehicle does not start and
the keyless access transmitter
appears to be undamaged, try
another keyless access transmitter.
Or, place the transmitter in the
transmitter pocket. See
“NO FOBS
DETECTED” underKey and Lock
Messages on page 5‑42 for
additional information. Check the fuse. See
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 10‑51. If the
engine still does not start with the
other transmitter, the vehicle needs
service. If the engine does start,
the first transmitter may be faulty.
See your dealer or have a new
keyless access transmitter
programmed to the vehicle.
The immobilizer system can
learn new or replacement keyless
access transmitters. Up to four
keyless access transmitters can
be programmed for the vehicle.
To program additional transmitters,
see “Matching transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle” underRemote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System Operation on
page 2‑3.
Do not leave the key or device that
disarms or deactivates the theft
deterrent system in the vehicle.
