ARMING THE SYSTEM (CHANNEL 1) : ACTIVE
1. Turn off the engine, exit thevehicle, andclose andlock alldoors, hood,and trunk.
2. Press and release the ARMING button on the keychain transmitter. The siren
will "chirp" once, the vehicle's parking lights will flash once, the doors will lock
(optional), and the dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to slowly flash.
WARNING! Excessive pressure on the transmitter buttons will damage the internal
components on the circuit board. All that is required is a light push to the button.
NOTE: If thesiren "chirped" three times when ARMING, thenone of the entry points
(hood, trunk, doors) has been left opened. Closing the hood, trunk, or doors will
correct the problem, and you do not need to disarm the system to make the
correction.
ARMING THE SYSTEM (CHANNEL 1) : PASSIVE
1. Turn off the engine, exitthe vehicle,and closeand lockall doors,hood, andtrunk.
2. The dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash rapidly, indicating that the system
is automatically (passive) arming. As an added convenience, the automatic
passive arming will not begin until all doors and trunk lid are closed, allowing
passengers to exit the vehicle at their convenience.
3. In 30 seconds,you will hear a singleshort "chirp" fromthe siren, and the vehicle's
parking lamps will flash one time, indicating the system is ARMED. At this time,
the dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash slowly, providing a visual indication
that the system is fully ARMED.
OPTION NOTE: If the optional (not included) power door lock interface has
been installed, the alarm control module can be programmed to...
a) Automatically lock the doors during step 3 above or,
b) Only lock the doors when step 4 below is executed.
4.If you wish to arm the system immediately, simply press and release the
ARMING button on the keychain transmitter. The siren will "chirp" once, the
vehicle's parking lamps willflash once,the doorswill lock(optional), andthe dash
mounted L.E.D. will begin to slowly flash.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED:
1. Opening any door, hood or trunk will cause the alarm to immediately sound. The
siren will continue to sound for 30 seconds, then stop and automatically re-arm
the vehicle. If the potential thief left a door opened, the siren will sound for six
30 second cycles, then re-arm and ignore the opened door.
2. Whenever the system isarmed, theRed dashmounted L.E.D. indicator willslowly
flash. This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The L.E.D. is a very
low current bulb, and will not cause the vehicle's battery to drain, even when left
unattended for extended periods.
3. Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will flash for the
30 second alarm cycle, attracting added visual attention to the vehicle.
4. Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle's starter will be bypassed. If a thief
should choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can not be started.

DISARMING THE SYSTEM (CHANNEL 1):
1.As you approach the vehicle, press and release the ARMING button on the
keychain transmitter.
WARNING! Excessive pressure on the transmitter buttons will damage the
internal components on the circuit board. All that is required is a light push to
the button.
2. The siren will "chirp"2 times and the vehicle's parking lamps will flash two times.
3A. ACTIVE : The dash mounted L.E.D. will turn off, and remain off until the system
is re-armed.
3B. PASSIVE : Never attempt to disarm the system from a distance that prevents
you from opening a door within 30 seconds. Since the system is programmed
for passive arming, it will begin to re-arm until a door is opened. Opening the
door will suspend the passive arming cycle.
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS:
The system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away
from the vehicle. If an intrusion attempt has occurred, the siren will "chirp" 4 times
when disarming the system.
The vehicle's parking lights will also flash 3 times to indicate an intrusion has
occurred. Enter the vehicle and observe the dash mounted L.E.D. for further
information.
1. If the L.E.D. is flashing one time... pause...one time... etc., then an intrusion
attempt was made to a light activated entry point.
2. If the L.E.D. is flashing two times...pause...two times...etc., then an intrusion
attempt was made to the hood, trunk, or an optional sensor that has been
connected to zone 2.
3. If the L.E.D. is flashing three times...pause...three times...etc., then an intrusion
attempt was made through one of the vehicle's doors.
These intrusion warning indicators are stored in the system's memory, and will only
be erased from memory when the ignition key is turned on.
VALET / SYSTEM OVERRIDE SWITCH:
The "Valet" switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating
the needto handyour transmitter to parking attendantsor garage mechanics. When
the system is in valet mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however, the remote
panic feature and remote door locks (optional) will remain operational. To use the
valet mode;
1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition key to the "on" position.
2. Move the valet toggle switch to the "on" position. The dash mounted L.E.D. will
turn on solid, and remain on as long as the system is in the valet mode.
3. To return to normal operation, move the valet switch to the "off" position any time
the ignition is on.
In the event you lose yourkeychain transmitter, or if the transmitter failsto disarm
the system, the valet switch can be used as a system override switch. Open the
car door (the alarm willsound). Turn theignition key on,and movethe valetswitch
to the "on" position. The alarm will stop sounding, and the vehicle can now be
started.
NOTE: Always remember to move the Valet Switch back to the "off" position. This
will ensure that the vehicle remains protected at all times.

ELIMINATING THE ARM / DISARM CHIRPS:
The normalarming and disarmingconfirmation "chirps" can easily be turned on and
off using the valet toggle switch. To do this...
1. The valet switch must be in "off" position.
2. Turn the ignition key on, and then off.
3. Within 10 seconds of turning the ignition key off, move the valet toggle switch
to the on-off-on-off-on-then off.
4a. If, before proceeding with step 1, the chirps were on, then you will hear 2 chirps
to indicate that the chirps have been turned off.
4b. If, before proceeding with step 1, the chirps were off, then you will hear 1 chirp
to indicate that the chirps have been turned on.
5. Whenever power to the system is disconnected (for repair or service of the
vehicle), the chirps will be active whenpower isre-connected. To turnthe chirps
off, simply execute 1-3 above.
Note: Whenever the chrips are by-passed, the 3 chirp defect and 4 chirp intrusion
indicator willalways operate. Thisfeature will always warn you if there is a defective
sensor during the arming sequence or if the vehiclehad been tampered with in your
absence, even if the normal arming and disarming chirps have been turn off.
REMOTE PANIC OPERATION (CHANNEL 1):
The arming button on your keychain transmitter also functions as a "panic" switch
for instant activation of the alarm in emergency situations. To use the remote panic
switch;
1. Press and hold the arming button on the keychain transmitter for 3 seconds or
more. The alarm will immediately sound.
2. To stop the alarm, press and release the arming button on the keychain
transmitter. If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically stop after
30 seconds.
WARNING! Excessive pressure onthe transmitter buttons will damagethe internal
components on the circuit board. All that is required is a light push to the button.
TRUNK RELEASE (CHANNEL 2):
This security system has an additional feature that can be wired to a number of
different optional accessories. Some of the more common uses for this "channel"
are:
Remote Trunk Release - available for any vehicle with factory installed
electronic push-button trunk release.
