Keys and doors/Alarm system
The flashing of the security indicator light
will then change slowly (once approximately every 3 seconds from twice approximately every 2 seconds), indicating
that the alarm system has been disarmed.
To unlock all other doors and the rear
gate, briefly press the disarm button a
second time within 5 seconds.
! Emergency disarming
If you cannot disarm the system using the
access key/transmitter (i.e. the transmitter
is lost, broken or the transmitter battery is
too weak), you can disarm the system
without using the access key/remote
transmitter.
The system can be disarmed if you turn
the ignition switch from the “LOCK”/“OFF”
to the “ON” position with a registered key/
access key.
NOTE
For models with “keyless access with
push-button start system”, if the access key battery is discharged, perform
the procedure described in “Switching
power status” F9-17. In such a case,
replace the battery immediately. Refer
to “Replacing battery of access key”
F11-42.
& Valet mode
When you choose the valet mode, the
alarm system does not operate. In valet
mode, the remote transmitter is used only
for locking and unlocking the doors and
rear gate and panic activation.
To enter the valet mode, change the
setting of your vehicle’s alarm system for
deactivation mode. Refer to “Activating
and deactivating the alarm system” F227. The security indicator light will continue to flash once every 3 seconds
indicating that the system is in the valet
mode.
To exit valet mode, change the setting of
your vehicle’s alarm system for activation
mode. Refer to “Activating and deactivating the alarm system” F2-27.

CAUTION
In passive mode, the system will
automatically activate the alarm but
WILL NOT automatically lock the
doors. In order to lock the doors
you must either lock them as indicated in step 4 below or with the
key once they have been closed.
Failure to lock the doors manually
will result in a higher security risk.

position.
& Passive arming (models
without “keyless access with
push-button start system”)
! Passive arming mode
When passive arming mode has been
programmed by the dealer, arming of the
system is automatically accomplished
without using the remote transmitter. Note
that in this mode, DOORS MUST BE
MANUALLY LOCKED.
