vehicle starting device. A running engine produces dangerous carbon monoxide fumes which can be harmful or fatal if prolonged exposure occurs. DO NOT remote start the vehicle if it is garaged.
YOUR “ANTI CODE GRABBING“ TRANSMITTERS
The transmitters included with your new security system use the most advanced
and secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current automotive security system. Some of today’s sophisticated auto thieves use a device known
as a code grabber, which will receive and store the signal from your keychain
transmitter, and re transmit at a later time to disarm your system.
Your Keeloq Code Hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the
button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then retransmits your signal, the alarm
will not
system
respond.
Page 2
If your transmitter button is pressed more than fifty times while it is out of range of
the vehicle (children playing with your keys), the transmitter will not operate when
you return to the vehicle, and will need to be re aligned to the receiver. To do this,
simply press button 1 two times within a one second time period. The system will
now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed.
NOTE: This system is custom configurable and can be set up to operate with a
number of options controlled from any transmitter button or button combination. For reference, we will describe operation assuming that your
system is programmed for separate lock and unlock buttons. Also refer-
ence will be made to the icons as shown on the buttons below.
NOTE: Concerning the LCD based remote, where lock is mentioned, use button
#1, where unlock is mentioned, use button #2, where trunk/start is mentioned,
use button #3. The Red Button is used to acquire status of the system.
See "System Status" described later in this manual.
Consult your installation center if your system has been configured differently.
NOTE: Your system has the option of using a siren, the vehicle horn, or both for
the sounding device. Where the siren is referenced below, the horn or
both may in fact chirp, or beep.
ARMING THE SYSTEM - ACTIVE
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood lid, and trunk lid.
2. Press and release button Lock/Arm button on the keychain transmitter.
þ The dash mounted LED begins to flash slowly.
þ Parking Lights flash one time.
þ Siren sounds one chirp.
If the siren sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or
hood lid ajar. Simply close the opened entry point to provide full
protection. If the siren did not sound when arming, then the chirps
have been turned off, and you should refer to the section titled
“ELIMINATING THE ARM / DISARM CHIRPS“ in this manual.
o Doors Lock - Optional
Note: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added, and has been
selected for operation when arming, as an added convenience, the system
will turn on the headlights when the system is armed.
SILENT ARMING - ACTIVE (Must be activated during programming)
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood lid, and trunk lid.
2. Press and hold button the Lock/Arm button on the keychain transmitter for 2
seconds.
þ The dash mounted LED begins to flash slowly.
þ Parking Lights flash one time.
þ Siren will not sound.
If the siren sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or
hood lid ajar. Simply close the opened entry point to provide full
protection
o Doors Lock - Optional
Page 3
Note: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added, and has
been selected for operation when arming, as an added convenience, the
system will turn on the headlights when the system is armed.
ARMING THE SYSTEM - P ASSIVE (AUTOMATIC)
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, and close and lock all doors, hood lid,
and trunk lid.
þ The dash mounted LED begins to flash rapidly, indicating 30 second
passive arming has begun.
2. Opening any protected entry point during the 30 second passive arming cycle
will immediately suspend automatic arming, and the 30 second passive arming cycle will restart when all doors are closed. At the end of the passive
arming cycle;
þ The dash mounted LED begins to flash slowly.
þ Parking Lights flash one time.
þ Siren sounds one chirp
If the siren did not sound when arming, then the chirps have
been turned off, and you should refer to the section titled
“ELIMINATING THE ARM / DISARM CHIRPS“ in this manual.
o Doors Lock - Optional
Door locking during passive arming is a selectable feature.
The alarm can be programmed to allow the doors to lock only
when arming using the keychain transmitter, and they
will not automatically lock during passive arming.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED
þ Opening any protected door, hood, or trunk lid will cause the alarm to
immediatel y sound. The alarm will continue to sound for 30 seconds,
then stop and continue to monitor all protected entry points. If the thief left
a door opened, the alarm will sound for six 30 second cycles, remain
armed and ignore that triggered zone.
þ Whenever the system is armed, the red dash mounted LED indicator will
slowly flash. This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The
LED is a very low current bulb, and will not cause the vehicle’s battery to
drain, even when left unattended for extended periods.
þ Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle’s parking lights will flash for
the full 30 second alarm cycle, attracting visual attention to the vehicle.
þ Optional - Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle’s starting circuit will
be bypassed. If the thief should choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can
not be started.
þ Any mild impact to the vehicle’s glass will cause the alarm to sound a
short series of warning tones.
þ Any strong impact to the vehicle’s glass will cause the alarm to trigger for
the full 30 second alarm cycle.
Note: If the optional interior illumination circuit was installed, the interior light will
flash as well for the full 30 second alarm cycle.

ter button is activated, the drivers door only will unlock, pressing the unlock
button a second time will cause all doors to unlock.

WHILE THE SYSTEM IS SOUNDING
If during a triggered state, you wish to shut off the siren without disarming your security
system, simply press and release any transmitter button other than the Unlock/Disarm
button. This action will turn off the siren yet leave the vehicle fully armed and protected.
This feature is particularly useful if you are aware of children playing near your vehicle that
may accidently trigger your security system. In this case you can cancel the siren
sounding without disarming your alarm.
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS
This 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 and the
parking lights will flash 3 times when disarming the system. Enter the vehicle and
observe the red dash mounted LED to identify which zone was triggered.
If the LED is flashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then an intru-
sion attempt was made to the shock sensor, or an accessory triggering device
that may have been added to the system.
If the LED is flashing two times...pause...two times...pause...etc., then an
intrusion attempt was made to a hood or trunk pin switch that was added to the
system, or to a light activated entry point if the alarm was installed using the
voltage sensing feature.
If the LED is flashing three times...pause...three times...pause...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 when the ignition key is turned on.
VALET SWITCH
The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating the
need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the
system is in valet mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however the remote panic
feature and remote door locks will remain operational. In addition, the parking lights will
flash to indicate locking and unlocking. To use the valet mode, the system must first be
disarmed either by using your keychain transmitter, or by activating your personalized
manual override code.
1. Enter the vehicle, and turn the ignition key to the on position.
2. Press and hold the valet push-button switch until the dash mounted LED
turns on solid. The system will remain in the valet mode.
3. T o return to normal operation, press and release the push-button switch any
time the ignition is on.
NOTE: Always remember to return the system to normal operation. This will ensure
that the vehicle remains protected at all times.
