Vehicle Security Alarm The vehicle security alarm monitors the
vehicle doors and trunk for
unauthorized entry and the
START/STOP button for unauthorized
operations.
The system includes a dual function
anti-intrusion sensor and vehicle
anti-lift sensor. The anti-intrusion
sensor monitors the vehicle interior for
motion.
The vehicle anti-lift sensor monitors
the vehicle for any lifting or tilting
actions (tow away, tire removal, ferry
transport, etc). A siren with battery
backup which senses interruptions of
power and communications is also
included.
While the vehicle security alarm is
enabled, interior door locks switches,
trunk lid and fuel filler door release
are disabled. If something triggers the
alarm, the vehicle security alarm will
provide the following audible and
visible signals: intermittent buzzer,
position lights and/or turn signals and
the vehicle security light on the
dashboard will flash.
This light will fast flash for
approximately 15 seconds, when the
vehicle security alarm is being armed, and will then flash slowly until the
vehicle is disarmed.
Rearming the System If something triggers the security
alarm, and no quick action is taken to
disarm it, the vehicle security alarm
will turn off the beeper after 29
seconds, and turn off all of the visual
signals after 31 more seconds; the
vehicle security alarm will then rearm
itself. Arming the System Follow these steps to arm the vehicle
security alarm.
• Make sure the vehicle ignition switch
is OFF .
• Perform one of the following
methods to lock the vehicle:
• Press the
lock button on the

• Press the button on the exterior
“Passive Entry” door handle
having a valid key fob RKE
transmitter in the same exterior
zone (see “Passive Entry System” in
this section for further
information).
• Press the
lock button on the key
fob RKE transmitter. • If any door is open, close it.
In any of these situations, if one or
more windows are open, they will
remain open. To close the windows
press again the
lock button and
hold it until their closure.
When arming the alarm system in any
of the described ways, the power
trunk lid will remain open if it was left
open. In this condition, it will be
necessary to first close the trunk lid as
described under “Power Trunk Lid
Operation” in this section, and repeat
the arming operation, to be able to
arm the alarm system.
The buttons - located at the right
bottom of the trunk lid and indicated
in the figure - can be used to
completely close and lock the trunk
lid, lock all the doors and arm the
alarm system if all the doors and trunk
lid are closed. See chapter “Power Trunk Lid
Operation” in this section for further
information.
Each time the vehicle security alarm is
armed, the anti-intrusion and anti-lift
sensors actively monitor the vehicle.
When arming the security alarm, it is
possible to disable these sensors by
pressing the
button on the key fob
three times within 5 seconds from the

(meanwhile the security alarm light
flashes rapidly).Before Starting

NOTE:
• When the vehicle security alarm is
armed, the interior power door lock
switch will not allow unlocking of
the doors.
• The use of the emergency key into
the driver door lock and the use of
the button
on the key fob
cannot arm or disarm the security
alarm of the vehicle.
• The vehicle security alarm remains
engaged while accessing the power
trunk lid. Pressing the button
between the license plate lights will
not disarm the vehicle security alarm.
If anyone enters the vehicle through
the trunk lid and opens a door, the
alarm will trigger. 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 activate. If this
occurs, disarm the vehicle security
alarm.
If the vehicle security alarm is armed
and the battery becomes disconnected,
the vehicle security alarm will remain
armed when the battery is
reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, the buzzer will activate. If this
occurs, disarm the vehicle security
alarm.

security alarm in your absence, the
horn will sound three times when you

Remote Start System This system enables the key fob RKE
transmitter to start the engine
conveniently from outside the vehicle
while still maintaining security. The
system has a range of approximately
300 ft (91 m). Obstructions between
the vehicle and the key fob may
reduce this range.
NOTE:
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
If your RKE transmitter fails to operate
from a normal distance, check for
these conditions:
• A weak battery in the RKE
transmitter. The expected life of the
battery is a minimum of three years.
• Closeness to a radio transmitter such
as a radio station tower, airport
transmitter, and some mobile or CB
radio.
• Obstructions between the vehicle
and the Key Fob. How to use Remote Start All of the following conditions must
be met before the engine will remote
start:

“Auto Apply On” function through
the switch on the right-side of the
steering wheel (refer to “Instrument

• there is a valid key fob RKE
transmitter outside the vehicle and
within 3.3 ft (1 m) of either “Passive
Entry” door handle;
• fifteen attempts are made to lock
the doors using the door panel
switch and/or the RH button
(on
the right lower part of the trunk lid)
and then close the doors. If the key fob RKE transmitter is inside
the passenger compartment and one
of the doors locked only to the first
detent of lock pawl (hence it is not
fully closed), when the vehicle lock
function with alarm system for trunk
lid and doors is being activated by
means of RH button
at the bottom
of the trunk lid, said function will be
activated all the same.
In this condition, any attempt to duly
close the door that is partially open
will cancel vehicle lock and alarm
system arming thus leaving vehicle
unlocked.
Since when the doors are locked, the
"Passive Entry" system waits for about
16 seconds before verifying if a key
fob RKE transmitter is present inside
the vehicle.

the trunk lid, press the button located
between the license plate lights, the
power trunk lid will automatically
open until it has reached its maximum
height; if the same button is not
pressed again to stop it (for more
information, see chapter “Power Trunk
