The information enclosed will provide a ready reference of the operation and maintenance of your security system.

Basic Operation

Take a moment to become familiar with the operation of the primary features provided by your new security
system as you may need to use them at some point in time. To test the primary features, repeat the following
procedures exactly as they are listed:

System Override/Valet:

A switch is used to override the security system in the event that the transmitters are lost or fail to operate and to
put the security system in non-operational mode (valet) for vehicle servicing etc.

This section details the simple day to day operations of your mobile security system.
The enclosed procedures should be performed every six months to insure that all functions are operating

properly. To perform a basic operations test, repeat the following procedures:

1. Exit the vehicle and close all protected entrances.

2. Press the LOCK button of your keyless entry transmitter. Your security system will respond in the following
manner:

A. The horn/siren will beep one time.
B. The LED status indicator will begin flashing.
C. The parking lights will flash one time.

3. Press the UNLOCK button on your keyless entry transmitter. Your security system will respond in the following
manner:

A. The horn/siren will beep twice.
B. The LED will be off. (Only when the unit has not been programmed to automatically arm)
C. The parking lights will flash two times.

4. Re-arm your security system and wait 5 seconds.

5. Open one of the protected entrances of the vehicle. Your security system will respond in the following manner:

A. The horn/siren will begin to sound.
B. The parking lights will begin to flash.
C. The LED flash sequence will change to indicate that the security system had been triggered.

6. Press the UNLOCK button on your keyless entry transmitter once again.

A. The horn/siren will stop sounding.
B. The parking lights will stop flashing.
C. The LED will remain flashing to indicate that the security system had been triggered. (Tamper indication)

7. Repeat steps 1 thru 6 for all other protected entrances and additional sensor devices.

Notations on Basic Testing and Operating Procedures.

1. When you disarm the security system while the horn/siren is sounding the normal disarm beeps are
eliminated.

2. If the chirp status indication function is programmed off, you will not get any arm or disarm beeps.

3. After the security system has been triggered, the LED will remain flashing even though the security system has
been disarmed. This is a tamper indicator. Turning on the ignition key will reset the tamper indicator.
