Perimeter Alarm Arming

The perimeter alarm is ready to arm any time the ignition is off. The perimeter alarm pre-arms when any of the following actions are performed:

• Pressing the lock button on a RKE transmitter
• Touching the outside region of the LHF or RHF door handle (if equipped with the passive entry feature)

Once the system is pre-armed, there is a 20 second countdown before the perimeter alarm is armed. Each entry point to the vehicle (hood, door and tailgate) is armed separately and must be closed before that entry point begins the 20 second countdown to become armed. If all entry points are closed, the turn signals flash upon locking indicating that all entry points are entering the 20 second countdown.
