the Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch (if so equipped) , power door lock
switch or mechanical key.

about 30 seconds. The vehicle security sys-
tem is now pre-armed. After about 30 sec- onds the vehicle security system automati-
cally shifts into the armed phase. The
security light begins to flash once every
three seconds. If, during the 30-second pre-
arm time period, the driver’s door is un-

tion switch is placed in the ACC (if so
equipped) or ON position, the system will
not arm.

gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate with all the doors, hood and
trunk lid locked with the ignition switch
placed in the LOCK position. When
placing the ignition switch in the ACC
