2. Lock the door using either the power door lock switch (one door must be open) or the LOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (doors can be open or closed), and close all doors.

NOTE:
The Vehicle Security Alarm will not arm if you lock the doors with the manual door lock plungers.
