Operation Manual
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Vehicle Security Alarm (VSA) system monitors the
vehicle doors, hood, and liftgate for unauthorized en-
try and the ignition switch for unauthorized operation.
If something triggers the alarm, the system will prevent
the vehicle from starting, sound the horn intermit-
tently, flash the headlights and taillights, and flash the
Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster.
REARMING OF THE SYSTEM
If something triggers the alarm, and no action is taken
to disarm it, the system will turn off the horn after
approximately 29 seconds, turn off all of the visual
signals after one minute, and then the system will
rearm itself.
