4 Button Remote Security System
IMPORTANT ! In order to provide the highest possible level of security to your vehicle, this
system is equipped with selectable manual override circuitry. It is possible that you will need
to manually override your security system if the transmitter becomes lost, or inoperative due
to battery failure. Reading the sections on "MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM" is
necessary to fully understand the procedure required to enable your vehicle in such
situations. In addition, the chart on the last page of this manual has a section for the particular
features and options installed in your vehicle as well as the override method selected.
Valet Switch manual override is pre-selected from the factory, however, the system
can be configured for "Custom Code" operation. Confirm the override mode selected on the
last page of this manual, and familiarize yourself with the selection on it's operation.

YOUR “ Code Hopping “ 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 retransmit at a later time to disarm your system.
Your anti code hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the button
is pressed, so when a thief grabs then 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 realigned 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
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 the Lock button on the keychain transmitter.
the sounding device. Where the siren is referenced below, the horn or
both may in fact chirp, or beep.
; Dash mounted LED begins to flash slowly.
; Parking Lights flash two times.
; Siren sounds two chirps.
If the siren/horn sounds 4 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 "chirped" four 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.

been turned off, and you should refer to the section titled
"ELIMINATING TH E ARM / DISARM CHIRPS" in this manual.
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
; 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.

; Whenever the system is armed, the 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.
; 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.
; 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.
; Any mild impact to the vehicle’s glass will cause the alarm to sound a
short series of warning tones.
; Any strong impact to the vehicle’s glass will cause the alarm to trigger
for the full 30 second alarm cycle.

1. As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Unlock button on the keychain transmitter.
; Dash mounted LED turns off.
; Parking Lights flash one time.
; Siren sounds one chirps.
Doors Unlock - Optional
If passive arming was selected during the installation, then the LED
will start flashing rapidly, indicating that the system is rearming automatically. Open any door to suspend the automatic arming.
If the parking lights flashed four times, then the alarm was triggered in your absence. Before turning the key on, examine the LED to
identify which zone was triggered.
If the siren sounds 4 chirps, then the alarm was triggered in your
absence. Before turning the key on, examine the LED and refer to the
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS section of this manual to identify which zone was triggered.
If the siren did not sound when disarming, then the chirps have
been turned off, and you should refer to the section titled “ELIMINATING THE ARM / DISARM CHIRPS“ 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.
