Arming the CTD System
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, 2006 Chevrolet Uplander, and 2006 Buick Terraza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Use the following procedure in order to arm the system:
- Place the shift lever in Park (P).
- Turn OFF the ignition.
- Open any door.
- Lock the doors with either the power door lock switch or the LOCK button on the transmitter. The system is in standby mode and will not begin the arming timer until all doors are closed.
- The system will begin the arming timer immediately after the last door is closed. This delay is shown by the theft LED indicator ON STEADY. When the indicator transitions to OFF, the system is armed. After the theft LED indicator transitions to OFF, the theft LED will begin to flash slowly.
IMPORTANT:
The system is not armed if the doors are locked manually; the power door lock switch or remote keyless entry transmitter must be used to arm the content theft deterrent (CTD) system.
