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 anti code grabbing transmitters will change their signal every time the button
is pressed, so when a thief grabs the retransmits your signal, the alarm system

will not

respond.
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 the lock button two times within a one second time period. The
system will now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed.
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.

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.

þ Red 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

immediately 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.

o 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.

DISARMING THE SYSTEM

1. As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Unlock button on the
keychain transmitter.
