Thank you. That is the factory alarm system. There is no reset button, but to turn off the factory alarm, insert the key in the drivers door and lock it and unlock it to turn off your factory alarm.

These 3 things I just mentioned, would work regardless of the alarm. So if you have no electrical power, I would check the battery and main fusible link for your power issue.

Does the mechanical key lock and unlock the drivers door?
Does the key work in the hatch?

If you take the mechanical key, and use it by locking and unlocking the Drivers door or using it to open the rear hatch. That turns off the factory alarm.
If you still have issues, you may have a Aftermarket alarm installed which would require it to be disabled by locating the alarm control module and unplugging it's main connector.

Where would the main connector be if that's the problem

You would need to locate the aftermarket alarm control unit. It is normally located under the drivers dash. It looks like this and I put some arrows to where the main connector is located on it.
