Arming and disarming the alarm
The alarm is armed when the vehicle is locked and disarmed when the vehicle is unlocked.
Note
It is not possible to lock the vehicle without activating the alarm.
Disarming the alarm without a functioning key
The vehicle can be unlocked and disarmed even if the key is not functioning, e.g. if its battery is discharged.
Open the driver's door using the detachable key blade.
This will trigger the alarm.
Place the key on the key symbol in the backup reader in the tunnel console's cup holder.
Turn the start knob clockwise and release.
The alarm will be disarmed.
Note
To help ensure that the key can be detected by the backup reader, make sure there are no other vehicle keys, metal objects or electronic devices (phones, tablets, laptops, chargers, etc.) in the cup holder. These objects can interfere with its functioning.
Turning off a triggered alarm
Press the unlock button on the key or put the ignition in ignition mode I by turning the start knob clockwise and then releasing it.
