The content theft-deterrent alarm is not armed until the security light goes off.
The theft-deterrent system will not activate if the doors are locked with the vehicle's key or the manual door lock.

The horn chirps and the lights flash.
If the key is not placed in the ignition and turned to START or the door is not
unlocked by pressing during the 10-second
pre-alarm, the alarm goes off.
