To use Advanced Theft Deterrant, your vehicle’s alarm system must be armed. To do so, simply lock the vehicle using the key fob, Keyless Access System or the interior door lock.  

To arm the system by using the interior lock, push the interior power lock switch or button when the door is open. The system will not arm using the interior door lock switch when the door is closed or if locked with a key. 

Electric Fuel Filler Lock 
Designed to help deter the siphoning of gas from the vehicle, Electric Fuel Filler Lock will lock the fuel door after the vehicle doors are locked. 

Note: When the vehicle doors are locked by passive/walkaway locking, there is a short delay before the fuel filler door locks. 

Steering Column Lock 
The Steering Column Lock activates automatically when you turn off and exit the vehicle. It can help prevent the vehicle from being driven, towed or pushed away without an authorized key fob.

Vehicle Inclination Sensor
The Vehicle Inclination Sensor helps protect against wheel and vehicle theft by sensing situations in which the tilt of the vehicle changes, such as when it is jacked up or being towed.

• The sensor is self-leveling and functions when the vehicle is parked on flat ground or on an incline. 
• If the sensor is triggered, it will activate the vehicle alarm, which will trigger the horn, siren and vehicle lights as well as the Surround Vision Recorder, if equipped. 

Interior Movement Sensor
The Interior Movement Sensor monitors the interior of the vehicle with ultrasonic waves. If it senses movement or unauthorized entry, it can activate the vehicle alarm, which will trigger the horn, siren and vehicle lights as well as the Surround Vision Recorder, if equipped. 

Glass Breakage Sensors
Located in the rear quarter panel windows and lift gate window, the Glass Breakage Sensors supplement the vehicle’s Instrusion Sensor capabilities, which may not be able to monitor the rear cargo area in the event the glass is broken. This feature helps protect valuables in the cargo area. 

• The windows include electric filaments that will sound the alarm if broken.
  
• If the Glass Breakage Sensors are triggered, the Surround Vision Recorder (if equipped) will activate.
  

Shielded, Battery-Backed Alarm Siren 
The Shielded, Battery-Backed Alarm Siren offers a dedicated siren, mounted in a secure location with its own power source to help protect the vehicle against break-ins. The system is designed to sense an abrupt loss of signal from the Body Control Module and sound the alarm. When on, the alarm will sound the siren in three instances: 

1. The vehicle’s main battery is disconnected.
2. Siren is disconnected while armed.
3. Any alarm-triggered event occurs.
