Remote Arming

The system monitors 4 independent areas (

zones

) while armed: doors, hood/trunk, shock

sensor and optional sensor input.
To Arm the System:

1. Turn off the ignition.

2. Press Button 1.

· The siren will chirp once.*

· The doors will lock.

· The parking lights will flash once.

· The LED will turn on red, to indicate the starter defeat is activate.

3. 5 seconds after Arming:

· The LED will start blinking to indicate that the doors and hood/trunk inputs are being
monitored.

* During Arming, if the system detects a bad sensor or an open zone, the system will chirp 4 additional

times and ignore that input, but keep all other areas protected.

Once Armed, the alarm will trigger when any of the following occurs:

· The doors are opened.

· The hood or trunk is opened.

· The shock sensor detects an impact to the vehicle.

· The optional sensor is disturbed.
When the alarm triggers, the siren will sound, the horn will honk, and the parking lights will

flash. If the system is triggered by the doors, or hood/trunk, the system will alarm for 45
seconds. If triggered by the shock sensor or optional sensor input, the system will alarm
for 30 seconds.

In the event the alarm is triggered and remains triggered continuously by the same sensor
or input during a single arming cycle, that sensor or input will be automatically bypassed
until the next time the system is armed.

If the Shock Sensor detects a light impact to the vehicle, or the Optional Sensor’s warn­away zone is disturbed, the siren will chirp 5 times as a warning indication.

Remote Disarming

To Disarm the System:

Press Button 1.

· The siren will chirp twice.*

· The doors will unlock.

· The parking lights will flash twice.

· The dome light will turn on.

· The LED will turn off.

Mounting the Control Unit

The control unit must only be mounted in the interior of the vehicle. Do not mount the
main unit in the engine compartment. Choose a mounting location that will not be easily
accessible to a thief, and will not interfere with the operation of any vehicle components
such as foot pedals, steering column, air vents, seat rails, etc.

Do not mount the control unit until after setting the internal jumpers and performing a
complete operation check of the system. After installation is complete and performance
verified, the control unit can be easily mounted using wire ties through the mounting tabs
on the bottom of the unit.

Mounting the Siren

Choose a siren mounting location that is away from heat sources such as exhaust manifolds,
and where it cannot be easily accessed from underneath the vehicle. Be sure to face the
siren downward to prevent the collection of water in the siren’s housing.

Always route all wires from the engine compartment into the interior of the vehicle through
a proper grommet.

Mounting the Shock Sensor

Choose a suitable interior mounting location for the shock sensor that provides ample
coverage of the vehicle. Keep the sensor away from the vehicle’s ECM or other sources of
electrical interference. Suggested mounting locations include air conditioning ducts,
dashboard braces, or center console supports.

During proper operation, the shock sensor will detect impacts to the vehicle only and will
not usually be triggered by slow rocking movements of the vehicle like those caused by
wind.
