General Information

The following steps describe the arming procedure:
1. Close all of the windows.
2. Place the shift control in PARK, if equipped with an automatic transmission.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
4. Remove the ignition key.
5. Open any door.
6. Lock the doors with the power lock switch or with the remote transmitter.
7. Close the doors.

The vehicle alarm is now armed.

Activation of any of the following components will sound the alarm:
^ Door lock switches
^ Rear compartment lid release switch
^ Shock sensor

The system will also sound if the wrong key resistance is detected. The armed system will briefly flash the red lamp every two seconds.

The system can also be armed with the windows open. The system will be disarmed only when the unlock button on the remote transmitter is pushed or the ignition key is ON.

IMPORTANT: Locking the doors with the lock control slide knob will not arm the system.

When any door is opened during the arming procedure, the system goes into an armed wait mode. The following actions will occur if the remote transmitter is used in order to arm the system:
^ Closing the doors will arm the system.
^ The horns chirp twice.
^ The parking lamps flash.

If the door switch was used to arm the system, only the parking lamps will flash. If the rear compartment lift window panel is open or ajar during arming procedure, the horn will only chirp once.
