SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM
Alarm Activation
While armed, the alarm will sound in the following scenarios:
- Opening of doors/hood/trunk lid (perimeter protection)
- Operation of ignition with a key that is not validated
- Cutting off the battery cables
- Movement inside the passenger compartment (volumetric protection — if equipped)
- Unexpected lifting/tilting of the vehicle (anti-lift protection — if equipped)
Activation of the alarm triggers the acoustic warning and the turn signals.
Note: The alarm system is activated by the Engine Immobilizer system, which is automatically activated when you get out of the vehicle with the key fob and lock the doors.
To Arm The Alarm
With the doors, hood, and trunk lid closed and the keyless ignition system placed in the STOP position, push and release the lock button on the key fob. The alarm can also be armed by pushing the Passive Entry door handle button, located on the exterior door handle. For further information, refer to “Passive Entry” in “Doors.”
Passive Entry Door Handle Button
When the alarm is armed, the warning lights on the panels of the interior front door handles will flash.
Lock/Unlock Buttons
The activation of the alarm is preceded by a self-diagnosis stage: if a fault is detected, the system emits a further acoustic signal. If a second acoustic signal is emitted after the alarm is already armed, wait about four seconds and disarm the alarm by pushing the unlock button. Verify that the doors, hood, and trunk lid are closed correctly, and then rearm the system by pushing the lock button on the key fob. If the alarm emits an acoustic signal even when the doors, hood, and trunk lid are correctly closed, a fault has occurred in the system operation. In this case, contact an authorized dealer.
To Disarm The Alarm
Push the unlock button to disarm the alarm. While disarming, the following operations are performed:
- Two brief flashes of the turn signals (if programmed)
- Two brief acoustic signals (if programmed)
- Doors are unlocked
The alarm can also be disarmed using the Passive Entry System, by grasping one of the Passive Entry front door handles with a valid key fob in hand to unlock. For further information refer to “Passive Entry” in “Doors.”
Note: The alarm does not disarm when the doors are unlocked by inserting the blade of the emergency key, found inside the key fob, into the door handle lock cylinder.
Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection — If Equipped
To ensure the correct operation of the Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection system, completely close the side windows. To disable the function, push the Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection button before activating the alarm. When the function is disabled, this is indicated by the light on the Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection button flashing for several seconds.
Any disabling of the Volumetric/Anti-Lift Protection must be repeated each time the instrument panel is switched off.
To Disarm The Alarm Using Passive Entry
To completely deactivate the alarm (e.g. during a long period of vehicle inactivity), insert the blade of the emergency key, found inside the key fob, into the door handle lock cylinder and turn the emergency key to the right (clockwise) to lock the door(s).
