Your Keyless Entry System has many features and available options some of which must
be selected at time of installation. For your reference, the list on the back page of this
manual shows what features and options have been installed with this particular system. Consult your installing dealer for options that may have been installed and are not
listed.
REMOTE DOOR LOCKING - ACTIVE
1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors.
2. Press and release the lock button of your key chain transmitter one time, the doors will
lock, the parking lights will flash once, the vehicle's horn (or optional siren) will chirp once
and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is locked.
SILENT LOCKING - ACTIVE
1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle and close all doors.
2. Press and hold the lock button of your key chain transmitter for two seconds, the doors
will lock, the parking lights will flash once and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash
slowly confirming the system is locked. The horn or optional siren will not chirp.
BACKUP P ASSIVE OPERA TION (AUTOMA TIC)
If the passive arming feature has been selected:
Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle and close all doors.
The dash mounted LED will immediately begin to flash rapidly indicating that the 30 second
passive arming timer has begun.
If any entry point is opened during the 30 second arming cycle, arming will be suspended.
When all entry points are closed, the arming cycle will begin again.
At the end of the 30 seconds, the parking lights will flash once, the vehicle's horn (or optional
siren) will chirp once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the
system is armed. If the horn (or optional siren) did not sound when arming, then the chirps
have been turned off. Please refer to the section titled "Eliminating the Arm/Disarm
Chirps" later in this manual. Passive door locking is a selectable feature. The doors may or
may not lock passively dependent upon the setup during installation.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED
If the optional Starter Interrupt relay has been installed, then whenever the system is armed,
the vehicle starter circuit is disabled, even with the ignition key, the vehicle will not start.
Whenever the system is armed, the dash mounted LED will slowly flash. This serves as a
visual deterrent to a potential thief. This LED is a very low current light emitting diode and will
not cause the battery to drain even if left unattended for long periods of time.
UNLOCKING THE SYSTEM
As you approach the vehicle, press and release the unlock button on the keychain transmitter,
the doors will unlock, the parking lights will flash two times, the vehicle horn (or optional
siren) will chirp twice and the dash mounted LED will turn off. If you have the optional entry
illumination circuit installed, the interior light will turn on for 30 seconds or until the ignition key
is switched on.
Note: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted
LED will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any
door will suspend the automatic arming.
SILENT UNLOCKING
1. As y ou approach the vehicle, press and hold the unlock button of your key chain
transmitter for two seconds, or until the system responds.
The doors will unlock, the parking lights will flash twice and the dash mounted LED will turn
off, confirming that the system is disarmed. The vehicle horn (or optional siren) will not
chirp. If you have the optional entry illumination circuit installed, the interior light will turn on
for 30 seconds or until the ignition key is switched on.

Note: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted
LED will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any
door will suspend the automatic arming.
OPTIONAL ACCESS GUARD ( Two Step Unlock )
If the optional 2-step unlock feature was installed, then only the driver's door will unlock after
the first press of the unlock button. If you want to unlock all doors, you can simply press the
unlock button of the keychain transmitter a second time.
Note: Two Step unlocking is an optional feature that must be wired upon installation.
VALET / PROGRAM / MANUAL OVERRIDE SWITCH
The valet switch allows you to temporarily prevent the system from arming, eliminating the
need to hand your keychain transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When
the system is in the valet mode, it will not passively arm or activate the starter interrupt
circuit. However, all keyless entry features, as well as the remote panic feature will remain
operational. To enter the valet mode:
1. Start with the valet switch in the "off" position
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "on" position.
3. Flip the valet switch to the "on" position.
The dash mounted LED will turn on solid (not flashing) indicating that the valet mode has
successfully been entered.
To return to the normal mode of operation, move the valet switch to the "off" position at any
time the ignition switch is in the on position.
Note: In the event that you lose your keychain transmitter or the transmitter fails to operate
the keyless entry system, the valet switch can be used to override the optional Starter
Interrupt, and therefore allow the engine to be started. To override system:
1. Open the door with the vehicle's door key.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
3. Flip the valet/override switch to the on position. LED will turn on solid.
The system will disarm, allowing the engine to be started and the vehicle to be operated
normally. Always remember to move the valet switch to the off position to allow the passive
arming and optional starter interrupt features to be operable the next time you park the
vehicle.
ELIMINATING THE LOCK/UNLOCK CHIRPS
Y ou can selectively eliminate the normal lock and unlock chirps by holding the transmitter button
slightly longer when locking and unlocking. This will prevent the horn/siren chirps for one
lock or unlock cycle. If you find this inconvenient and wish to eliminate these chirps permanently,
1. Start with the valet switch in the off position.
2. Turn the ignition switch "on" then "off".
3. Within 10 seconds of turning off the ignition, flip the valet switch on, "off", "on", "off",
"on", "off".
4. If the chirps were on before you started, the siren will emit 2 short chirps indicating
that the chirps are now off. If the chirps were off before you started, the siren will
emit one short chirp indicating that the chirps are now on.
REMOTE PANIC OPERA TION
The lock or unlock button of your keychain transmitter also serves as a panic button and will
cause the vehicle horn (or optional siren) to sound on demand. To use the panic feature, you
must be within the system's maximum operating range. In an emergency situation, to use the
panic feature, press and hold the lock or unlock button of your keychain transmitter for 3
seconds. This will cause the lights to flash, the vehicle horn (or optional siren) to sound, and
if the optional interior illumination circuit was installed, the interior lights to flash. The panic
mode will continue for 30 seconds and then reset.
