A. TRANSMITTERS

A maximum of 4 transmitters can be programmed to control the
functions of the M2a. There are 2 modes of transmitter operation.

• Dedicated Channel Mode (each button performs a
dedicated function)

• Auto Configuration Mode (buttons function as per the
icons printed on them)

Note: You can not mix transmitter operation modes

Dedicated Channel Mode:

1. Turn the ignition key to the "On" position.
2A. Push the valet switch 3 times to program in Dedicated

Channel Mode.

2B. Push the valet switch 6 times to program in Auto

Configuration Mode.

• If the vehicle horn is connected, you will hear 1 long + 1
short beep for Dedicated Channel Mode or 2 short + 1
long beep for Auto Configuration Mode.

• If the optional LED is connected, it will begin to flash for
10 seconds.

Note: You will have only 10 seconds to start programming the
transmitters. After 10 seconds has past with no programming
activity, the system will exit the programming mode.

3. Press any button on the first transmitter.

• If the vehicle horn is connected you will hear 1 beep.

• If the optional LED is connected, it will stop flashing for
a second or two.

• The parking lights will flash 1 time.

4. Press any button on the second transmitter.

• If the vehicle horn is connected you will hear 2 beeps.

• If the optional LED is connected, it will stop flashing for
a second or two.

• The parking lights will flash 1 time.

5. Apply the same procedure to program a 3rd and 4th transmitter.

PROGRAMMING SYSTEM FEATURES:

The M2a has 6 features that are programmable. To program these
features, repeat the following procedures:

1. Turn the ignition key "On" and then "Off".

2. Within 10 seconds, press the valet switch 6 times.

• If the vehicle horn is connected you will hear 1 long beep

• If the optional LED is connected, it will be on constant
(not flashing).

3. Select the feature you want to program (see feature chart on
next page) by pressing the valet switch.

Note: Feature selection using the valet switch is sequential. Press
the valet switch 1 time to select Feature #1. Press the valet switch
two times to select Feature #2 and so on. If you only have 1 fea­ture to program, you can press the valet switch the correct num-

ber of times and go directly to that feature. You can not jump
around. Once you make it to Feature #6, the programming will
end and you have to start over again (you can not go from Feature
#6 to Feature #1 by pressing the valet switch one more time).

• If the vehicle horn is connected, it will beep as many times
as you pressed the valet switch to indicate the feature to
be programmed.

• If the optional LED is connected, it will flash as many times
times matching the feature number you have selected to
program.

4. Once the feature you want to adjust has been selected, rotate
the ignition key to the "On" or "Off" position as indicated on the
programming chart. In some cases, you will have to turn the
