ANTI-THEFT ALARM
Alarm System
The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against
unauthorized access to your vehicle
through the doors, luggage compartment
and the hood.
Triggering the Alarm
Once armed, the alarm is triggered in any
of the following ways:
•
If someone opens a door, cargo area
or the hood without a valid key or
remote control.
If the alarm is triggered, the horn will sound
for 30 seconds and the hazard warning
flasher will flash for five minutes.
Any further attempts to perform one of the
above will trigger the alarm again.
Arming the Alarm
To arm the alarm, lock your vehicle. See
Doors and Locks (page 59).
Disarming the Alarm
Disarm and silence the alarm by unlocking
the doors with the key and switching the
ignition on within 12 seconds, or by
unlocking the doors or the cargo area with
the remote control.
Police Perimeter Alert System
(If
Equipped)
Note: The Police Perimeter Alert System is
primarily intended to monitor moving
pedestrians but also detects objects like
vehicles and bikes. Fast vehicles, stationary
objects and small objects like birds may also
be ignored.
Note: The Police Perimeter Alert System
feature does not function outside of Park
(P) or with any door open. The system uses sensors to monitor
detected objects moving near your parked
vehicle.
Detected moving objects are displayed as
moving dots on the systems instrument
cluster display.
Once the system detects approaching
objects crossing the selected range
perimeter, the vehicle sounds a tone, and
may roll up the windows and lock the
doors.
The system may also activate the rear view
camera if the display is in the Information
and Entertainment screen.

Object Detection
Note: A pedestrian near large obstructions
such as vehicles or walls may not be
detected until the person moves away from
the obstruction.
Note: Sensor reflections from stationary
objects may cause false objects to briefly
appear on the Police Perimeter Alert System
display.
Note: Sensor obstructions such as; dirt,
mud, precipitation, repair compound,
stickers, graphics, bumper guards, trailers,
or bicycle/cargo racks - in front of the
sensors can cause system sensing
degradation.

sensors located behind the rear bumper
on both sides of your vehicle. The sensors
will perform best if the vehicle is parked in
an open area without large obstructions
or walls nearby. System Error

Alert System fault, a warning message will
