Default Panic Button

The manual says to stop the results of pushing the Panic Button to push any other button. I tried pushing the unlock button but it did not stop the alarm. Pushing the Panic Button again stopped the alarm. I have a 2007 coupe. Has anyone else tried this alarm? Thanks.

You're right - the manual states:



. . . and you're right again - on my '07 Vert, I could only turn the alarm off by pushing the "Panic Button" once more - none of the other three buttons would turn it off.

What? Can we all try this, take it to the dealer 3 times in 30 days for a fix and then all get 08's under the lemon laws?

Common sense tells me "panic on" "panic off"
