PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

Perimeter Anti-Theft - Without The Memory Feature
The perimeter anti-theft system provides for vehicle security through an audible and visual notification if the vehicle doors, luggage compartment lid, or hood is opened without the system being disarmed. The system arms when:
- the doors, the luggage compartment lid, and the hood are closed.
- the key is in the OFF position.
- the vehicle is electronically locked using the integrated keyhead transmitter (IKT) key, the keyless entry keypad (if equipped), or the driver door lock control switch (with the driver door open, then closed).

There is a 20-second pre-arm delay after which each door, luggage compartment lid, and hood is armed. If a door, luggage compartment lid, or hood is open, the system still arms all the other doors. Only the open door, luggage compartment lid, or hood remains disarmed until it is closed. When the open entry point is closed, that entry point enters a 20-second pre-arm delay, then arms.

The hood switch and door ajar switches register as normally closed. The luggage compartment lid ajar switch registers as a normally open switch. The smart junction box (SJB) monitors the status of the hood switch, the luggage compartment lid ajar switch and door ajar switches. If these switches indicate an open entry point, the SJB energizes the horn and flasher relays, causing the horn to sound and the turn signal lamps to flash. The SJB disarms the perimeter alarm when it receives:
- an UNLOCK command through the keyless entry keypad (if equipped).
- an UNLOCK command through the IKT key.
- a network message that the driver door disarm switch was operated from the driver door module (DDM) which monitors the driver door disarm switch (part of the driver door latch) (if equipped).
- a valid PATS ignition key is turned to the ON position.
