Security System If equipped SECURITY SYSTEM INDICATOR The security system helps to protect your vehicle and valuables from theft. The horn sounds and a combination of headlights, parking lights, license plate lights, and taillights flash if someone attempts to break into your vehicle or remove the radio. This alarm continues for 2 minutes, then the system resets. To reset an alarming system before the 2 minutes have elapsed, unlock the driver's door with the key or the remote transmitter. The security system automatically sets 15 seconds after you lock the doors, hood, and the In-Bed Trunk. For the system to activate, you must lock the doors from the outside with the key, driver's lock tab, door lock switch, or remote transmitter. The security system indicator above the driver's door lock tab starts blinking immediately to show you the system is setting itself. The security system will not set if the hood, In-Bed Trunk, or any door is not fully closed. If the system will not set, check the door and tailgate open monitor and In-Bed Trunk open indicator on the instrument panel (see pages 61 and 66 ) to see if the doors and In-Bed Trunk are fully closed. Since it is not part of the monitor display, manually check the hood. NOTE: Use the remote transmitter to quickly check that the hood, In-Bed Trunk TM, and all doors are closed. Push the lock button twice within 5 seconds. There should be an audible confirmation beep. Do not attempt to alter this system or add other devices to it. Once the security system is set, opening any door (without using the key or the remote transmitter), the hood, or the In-Bed Trunk, will cause it to alarm. It also alarms if the radio and navigation components are removed from the dashboard or the wiring is cut. 162
