Important information

Congratulations on the purchase of your security system. Due to the

complexity of this system, it must be installed by an authorized dealer

only. Installation of this product by anyone other than an authorized

dealer voids the warranty. All dealers are provided with a preprinted

dealer certificate to verify that they are authorized.

By carefully reading this Owner's Guide prior to using your system, you

will maximize the use of this system and its features.

You can print additional or replacement copies of this manual by

accessing the Directed web site at www.xpressvip.com.

Using your system

Arming your system

You can activate, or arm, the system by locking the doors with your fac-

tory keyless entry transmitter. When the system arms, you will hear a

short siren sound and see the parking lights flash once. While the sys-

tem 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

short siren sound after arming, and see the status LED flashing in

groups, see Diagnostics section. This extra short siren sound is called

Bypass Notification. This means a zone such as a door or trunk is open.

Armed protection

When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:

Light impacts to your vehicle will trigger the Warn Away signal. The system will pulse the horn and flash the parking lights for a few seconds.

Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered sequence is 30 or 60 seconds of constant siren sounding and flashing parking lights.

If a door is opened, the system will immediately start pulsing 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).

Turning on the ignition key triggers the same progressive response as opening a door.

If equipped, the starter interrupt prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking.

nnoottee::

The vehicle may already be equipped with a starter

interrup relay from the factory.

nnoottee::

If programmed for instant trigger, the siren will output full trigger response after the door has been opened (see Programming Options)
