CAUTION!
An unlocked vehicle is an invitation. Always remove
the key from the ignition and lock all the doors when
leaving the vehicle unattended.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the ignition
and the ignition switch position is STOP/OFF/LOCK
sounds a signal to remove the key.
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System prevents unauthor-
ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system
does not need to be armed or activated. Operation is
automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or
unlocked.
The system uses ignition keys which have an embedded
electronic chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized ve-
hicle operation. Therefore, only keys that are programmed
to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle.
NOTE:A key which has not been programmed is also
considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the ignition
switch lock cylinder for that vehicle. If the vehicle security light is on after the key is turned to
the ON/RUN position, it indicates that there is a problem
with the electronics.
CAUTION!
•
Always remove the Sentry Key from the vehicle and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
• The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compat-
ible with some aftermarket remote starting systems.
Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting
problems and loss of security protection.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have been
programmed to the vehicle electronics.
Replacement Keys
NOTE: Only keys that have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once a
Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be
programmed to any other vehicle. When having the Sentry
Key Immobilizer System serviced, bring all vehicle keys
with you to an authorized dealer.
The VIN is required for authorized dealer replacement of
keys. Duplication of keys may be performed at an autho-
rized dealer.

tion.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the vehicle doors and
ignition for unauthorized operation. When the vehicle
security alarm is activated, interior switches for door locks
are disabled. The system provides both audible and visible
signals. For the first three minutes, the horn will sound,
and the turn signal lights will flash. For an additional 15
minutes, only the turn signal lights will flash.
To Arm The System
To arm the system, the vehicle security alarm will set when
you use the key fob to lock the doors. If a door or the hood
is not properly shut, the alarm system will not be armed.
To Disarm The System
Use the key fob to unlock the door and disarm the system.
The vehicle security alarm will also disarm if a pro-
grammed Sentry Key is inserted into the ignition switch. To
exit the alarming mode, push the key fob unlock button, or
insert a programmed Sentry Key into the ignition switch.
The vehicle security alarm is designed to protect your
vehicle. However, you can create conditions where the
system will give you a false alarm. If one of the previously
described arming sequences has occurred, the vehicle
security alarm will arm regardless of whether you are in
the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle and open a
door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the
vehicle security alarm.
Rearming Of The System
If the system has not been disabled, the vehicle security
alarm will rearm itself after the 15 additional minutes of
turn lamps flashing. If the condition which initiated the

tive.
