CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase of a state-of-the-art vehicle securi- ty system.This system has been designed to provide years of troublefree operation.Due to the complexity of this system, it must be installed by an authorized dealer only. Installation of this product by any other person other than an authorized dealer voids the warranty. All dealers are provided with a preprinted dealer certificate to verify that they are authorized.

THE SYSTEM REQUIRES NO SPECIFIC MAINTENANCE. Your remote control is powered by a miniature 12V battery, type GP23A, that will last about a year under normal use.When the battery weakens, operating range will be reduced and the LED on the remote will light dim.

YOUR WARRANTY card must be returned and the bar code serial number must not be removed.If the warranty card is not returned you don’t have a warranty. It is also necessary to keep your proof of purchase which reflects that the product was installed by an authorized dealer. Make

sure you receive the warranty card from your dealer.

THIS OWNER’S GUIDE should help you to get the most out of your system. Please take the time to read it thoroughly, prior to using the system.

Transmitter Channels

Channel I

The arm/disarm and panic functions, are usually controlled by Button I.

Channel II

The Silent Mode™/trunk release function, is usually controlled by Button II. Silent Mode™and Remote Valet®work by pressing button II for less than one second.Trunk release requires you to press Button II for 1.5 seconds.

Channel III (for options)

Usually controlled by pressing Buttons I and II at the same time. These assignments can be changed if needed, such as for two-car operation from one remote.

Using Your System

Arming

You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing button I of your transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound, or chirp, and see the parking lights flash once.If the vehicle’s power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will lock.

While the system is armed, the Status LED will flash about twice a second, showing that the system is actively protecting your vehicle.If you hear a second chirp after arming and see the Status LED flashes in groups, see Diagnostics section.This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.

The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called pas- sive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off and the system "sees" you leave the vehicle by opening and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second passive arming countdown, the Status LED will flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed.

NOTE: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-protected trunk or hood) is open, the system will not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is programmed on. See Programming Options section). Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.

When armed, your vehicle is protected in the following ways:

• Light impacts will trigger theWarn Away®signal.When triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash for a few seconds.

• Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The trigger sequence is 30 seconds of constant siren and flashing parking lights.

• If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chir ping the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast.This progressive response gives you time

to disarm the system with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door while the system is armed, while still providing instant response (even if the door is immediately closed).

• Tur ning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage response as

opening a door.

• The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking.

Arming While Driving

Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle! Simply press button I on your transmitter while the vehicle is running. The system will chir p once and then once more to indicate that the ignition is on. The system will not respond to any input except the door triggers and the starter kill relay (if installed) will not be activated. Once you have reached your destination, the system must be disarmed by pressing Button I on the transmitter once more. The siren will chirp twice and the LED will stop flashing. If you do not disarm the system, it will trigger when the any door is opened to exit the vehicle.

Disarming

To tur n off, or disarm the system, press Button I again. You will hear two chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If power locks are controlled by he system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps either four or five times when disarming, see Diagnostics section. This is called Tamper Alert.

High Security Disarm

Your system includes a High Security Disarm feature. During the trigger sequence, using the transmitter to disarm the system will only stop the trigger sequence (the siren will stop and the parking lights will stop flashing). However, the system will remain armed and the doors will stay locked. This is extremely useful if you must stop the system from sounding, but are unable
