Content Theft-Deterrent

Your vehicle has a content theft-deterrent alarm system.

This is the security light.

To activate the theft-deterrent system, do the following:

1.Open the door.

2.Lock the door with the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter. The security light should come on and stay on.

3.Close all doors. The security light should go off after about 30 seconds. The alarm is not armed until the security light goes off.

The content theft deterrent system does not sense if the midgate is open or ajar, therefore, vehicle contents may not be protected if the midgate is left open or ajar.

If a locked door is opened without using the RKE transmitter, a ten second pre-alarm will occur. The horn will chirp and the lights will flash. If the door is not unlocked by pressing the unlock button on the RKE transmitter during the ten second pre-alarm, the alarm will go off. The headlamps and parking lamps will flash for two minutes,

and the horn will sound for 30 seconds, then will turn off to save the battery power. You can choose different feedback options for the alarm. See Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 243 Driver Information Center (DIC).

Remember, the theft-deterrent system will not activate if you lock the doors with a key, the manual door lock, or the power door lock switch. It activates only if you use the RKE transmitter. You should also remember that you can start your vehicle with the correct ignition key if the alarm has been set off.
