I've tried my alarm a couple of times by pressing "panic" on the key fob. I just pressed it again to turn it off. If you set it off by opening a door, I think you have to insert the key into the ignition to shut it off.

one time when i parked and locked my car somewhere at 17 mile drive, the alarm mysteriously went off when i disarmed it and opened the door.

maybe the chil wind from the pacific ocean confused the alarm system . but its siren sound is much better than those stupid repeating horns from other brands

I thought that the tow button only stopped the alarm from going off if the car was lifted. I don't think it totally shuts down the alarm system.
