Y our Remote St art Alarm System has many features and available options some of which are selected at time of installation. For your reference, the list on page 9 of this manual shows what features and options have been installed. Consult your installing dealer for options that may have been installed and are not listed.

YOUR “ CODE HOPPING “ TRANSMITTERS:

The transmitters included with your new remote start system use the most advanced and secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current automotive remote 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. Y our code hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then re-transmits 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. T o do this, simply press the Lock/ Unlock button two times within a one second time period. The system will now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed.

ARMING THE SYSTEM - ACTIVE:

1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.

2. Press and release the Arm button of your key chain transmitter one time. The parking lights will flash once, the siren will chirp once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed. If you have the optional door lock/ unlock circuit installed, the doors will lock. NOTE: If the siren/horn

Simply close the opened entry point to provide full protection. If the siren "chirped" three times, sometime after arming, the exclusive delayed dome light learn circuit has been programmed and the system detected a open entry point after the learned delay expired. Again, closing the hood, trunk, or doors will correct the problem and you do not need to disarm the system to make the correction. If the siren/horn 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.

SILENT ARMING - ACTIVE:

1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.

2. Press and hold the Arm button of your key chain transmitter for two seconds. The parking lights will flash once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed. The siren will not chirp. If you have the optional door lock/ unlock circuit installed, the doors will lock. NOTE: If the siren/horn

sounds 3 chirp s, then you have left a door , trunk, or hood lid ajar.

sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or hood lid ajar.

ARMING THE SYSTEM - PASSIVE (AUT OMATIC)

If the passive arming feature has been selected:

1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk. The dash mounted LED will begin to flash rapidly indicating that the 30 second passive arming timer has begun. If the LED does not begin to flash rapidly , then you have left a door , hood, or trunk ajar. Closing this entry point will allow the arming cycle will begin. 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 siren will chirp once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed. If the siren did not sound when arming, then the chirps have been turned off. Refer to the section on "Eliminating the Arm/Disarm Chirps" shown later in this manual. Passive door locking is a selectable feature. If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors may or may not lock passively depending upon the setup during installation.

PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED:

Opening any protected entry point, hood, trunk, or doors will cause the alarm to trigger immediately . The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds, then stop and continue to monitor all protected entry points. If the thief left the door opened, the unit will sound for six 30 second cycles then shut down, isolate the triggered zone and continue to protect all other zones. 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. Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will flash for the full siren sounding period. Optional - whenever the system is triggered, the interior courtesy light will flash for the full siren sounding period. Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle starter circuit is disabled, and the vehicle will not start with the ignition key . Whenever the system is armed, any strong impact to the vehicle will cause the shock detector to trigger the alarm. Any lesser impact will cause the pre-detect stage of the shock sensor to emit a few short series of warning tones from the siren.

DISARMING THE SYSTEM

As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Disarm button on the keychain transmitter. The parking lights will flash two times, the siren will chirp twice, and the dash mounted LED will turn off. If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors will unlock. 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. If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates that the alarm system was triggered during your absence. Before turning on the ignition key, examine the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies the triggered zone. For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS found later in this manual. If the siren did not sound upon disarm, then the chirps have been turned off. Refer to the section titled ELIMINATING THE ARM/DISARM CHIRPS.

NOTE: If the optional 2 step door unlock circuit is installed, when the unlock transmitter button

is activated, the drivers door only will unlock, pressing the unlock button a second time will cause all doors to unlock. If your transmitter has a sperate lock unlock buttons, pressing the unlock button anytime after the first unlock command will cause all the vehicle doors to unlock.

SILENT DISARMING

transmitter for two seconds. The parking lights will flash twice, and the dash mounted LED will turn off confirming that the system is disarmed. The siren will not chirp. If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors will unlock. 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. If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates that the alarm system had been triggered in your absence. Before turning on the ignition key , examine the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies the triggered zone. For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS found later in this manual. NOTE: If the optional 2 step door unlock circuit is installed, when the unlock transmitter button

is activated, the drivers door only will unlock, pressing the unlock button a second

time will cause all doors to unlock. If your transmitter has a sperate lock unlock

buttons, pressing the unlock button anytime after the first unlock command will cause

all the vehicle 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 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.

INTRUSION WARNING SIGNAL

This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away from the vehicle. Upon disarm, the siren will chirp 4 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times. Enter the vehicle and before turning on the ignition switch, observe the LED flash pattern. If the LED flashes one time...pause, one time...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made by impact or a strong vibration that the shock sensor detected. Check the vehicle for possible damage to the glass or body panels. If the LED flashes two times...pause, two times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to open the hood, trunk, or by an accessory triggering device. Check the vehicle for indications of forced entry to these openings. If the LED flashes three times...pause, three times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to the vehicle doors. Check all doors for indications of forced entry . NOTE: The LED intrusion warning indications are stored in the system's memory and will be

erased when the ignition switch is turned on.

PUSH-BUTTON LED/V ALET/OVERRIDE/PROGRAMMING SWITCH: (PBLED)

The PBLED 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
