WARNING! Be certain that the vehicle is outdoors before using this or any remote
vehicle starting device. A running engine produces dangerous carbon
monoxide fumes which can be harmful or fatal if prolonged exposure
occurs. DO NOT remote start the vehicle if it is garaged.
YOUR “SPREAD SPRECTUM" 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 key chain
transmitter and re-transmit at a later time to disarm your system.
Your Spread Spectrum transmitters will shift frequencies making it impossible for a
thief to grab and rebroadcast your code.

If your transmitter button is pressed more than fty 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 re-aligned to the receiver. To do this, simply press
button 1, (lock), two times within a one second time period. The
system will now respond to that transmitter each time a button

lock and unlock buttons. Also reference will be made to the icons as shown
on the buttons left.
NOTE: The LCD based remote will be explained in detail further in this manual See
"System Status" described later in this manual. Consult your installation
center if your system has been congured differently.
NOTE: Your system has the option of using a siren, the vehicle horn, or both for
the sounding device. Where the siren is referenced below, the horn or both
may in fact chirp, or beep.
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 Lock/Arm button on the keychain transmitter.
The dash mounted LED begins to ash slowly.
Parking Lights ash one time.
Siren sounds one chirp.
If the siren/horn sounds 3 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" three 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.
Doors Lock - Optional
NOTE: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added, and has been
selected for operation when arming, as an added convenience, the system
will turn on the headlights when the system is armed.

ARMING THE SYSTEM - PASSIVE (AUTOMATIC)
(Must be activated during programming)
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle and close and lock all doors, hood lid and
trunk lid.
The dash mounted LED begins to ash rapidly, indicating 30 second
2. Opening any protected entry point during the 30 second passive arming cycle
will immediately suspend automatic arming and the 30 second passive arming
cycle will restart when all doors are closed. At the end of the passive arming
cycle;
If the siren 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.
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.
passive arming has begun.
The dash mounted LED begins to ash slowly.
Parking Lights ash one time.

Doors Lock - Optional
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED
NOTE: If the optional interior illumination circuit was installed, the interior light will
ash as well for the full 30 second alarm cycle.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM
NOTE: If the optional 2 step door unlock circuit is installed, when the unlock
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 ash. 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 ash
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.

transmitter button is activated, the drivers door only will unlock, pressing the
unlock button a second time will cause all doors to unlock.
NOTE: If your transmitter has been congured with single button Lock/Unlock, to
activate the all door unlock feature press the Lock/Unlock button a second
time within 3 seconds of the rst unlock command.
1. As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Unlock/Disarm button on the
keychain transmitter.
The dash mounted LED turns off.
The LED will start ashing rapidly, indicating that the system is re-arming
automatically. Open any door to suspend the automatic arming.
Parking Lights ash two times.
If the parking lights ashed three times, then the alarm was triggered in your
absence. Before turning the key on, examine the LED to identify which
zone was triggered.
Siren sounds two chirps.
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.
Doors Unlock - Optional
NOTE: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added and has
been selected for operation when disarming, as an added convenience, the
system will turn on the headlights when the system is disarmed.
SILENT DISARMING (Feature must be activated during programming)
During step 1 above, hold the transmitter button for 2 seconds then release. The
unit will arm without the chirps for this one lock cycle.
2 Step Doors Unlock - Optional
WHILE THE SYSTEM IS SOUNDING
If during a triggered state, you wish to shut off the siren without disarming your
security system, simply press and release any transmitter button other than the
Unlock/Disarm button. This action will turn off the siren yet leave the vehicle fully
armed and protected. This feature is particularly useful if you are aware of children
playing near your vehicle that may accidentally trigger your security system. In this
case you can cancel the siren sounding without disarming your alarm.

INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS
This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away
from the vehicle. If an intrusion attempt has occurred, the siren will chirp 4 times and
the parking lights will ash 3 times when disarming the system. Enter the vehicle
and observe the red dash mounted LED to identify which zone was triggered.
If the LED is ashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then an
intrusion attempt was made to the shock sensor, or an accessory triggering
device that may have been added to the system.
If the LED is ashing two times...pause...two times...pause...etc., then an
intrusion attempt was made to a hood or trunk pin switch that was added
to the system or to a light activated entry point if the alarm was installed
using the voltage sensing feature.
If the LED is ashing three times...pause...three times...pause...etc., then
an intrusion attempt was made through one of the vehicle’s doors.
These intrusion warning indicators are stored in the system’s memory and will only
be erased when the ignition key is turned on.
PUSH BUTTON LED RECEIVER VALET/OVERRIDE/SAFETY SWITCH
The Push Button LED switch located in the receiver allows you to temporarily bypass
all alarm functions, eliminating the need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the system is in valet mode, all alarm functions
are bypassed, however the remote panic feature and remote door locks will remain
operational. To use the valet mode, the system must rst be disarmed either by using
your keychain transmitter, or by activating your personalized manual override code.
1. Enter the vehicle, and turn the ignition key to the on position.
2. Press and hold the Push Button switch until the LED turns on solid. The system
will remain in the valet mode.
3. To return to normal operation, press and release the Push Button switch any time
the ignition is on.
NOTE: Always remember to return the vehicle to the valet off position. This will
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE RECEIVERS PUSH BUTTON OVERRIDE SWITCH
Your Security System can be disarmed without the use of the keychain transmitter. This is necessary, since you will need the ability to operate your vehicle if the
transmitter is lost or its battery fails. If your system has been selected for Valet
Switch manual override as indicated on the last page of this manual, to bypass the
alarm system;
The alarm system will stop sounding and enter the (bypassed) mode. You can now
start and operate the vehicle normally.
Typically this override mode is used only if the transmitter has become inoperative.

PROGRAMMING YOUR CUSTOM OVERRIDE CODE
Unlike override switches easily found, and defeated, this security system allows the
consumer to program a personal override code, offering a higher level of security.
To take advantage of this option, programmable feature # 9 must be selected for
the Custom Code Option. Consult your installation center for programming details.
The system comes from the factory with a pre-programmed override code of 11.
To change this default override code, do the following:
1. Disarm the system by use of the transmitter, or by use of the emergency override
sequence. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Receivers push button switch, 3 times.
3. Within 10 seconds turn the ignition switch off, on, off, on, off, on. (The siren or
horn will beep and the lights will ash one time.)
4. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen 10ths digit by pressing and releasing the Receivers push button switch from 1 up to 9 times.
5. Within 10 seconds of the last entered 10ths digit, turn the ignition switch off then
on.
6. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen units digit by pressing and releasing the Receivers push button switch from 1 up to 9 times.
7. Finish by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position. If the new code was
accepted, the unit will report back the newly entered code, by ashing the LED,
rst indicating the 10ths digit, pause and then the units digit. The unit will report
the new code three times with a one second pause between each code, then the
system will begin arming. If the LED ash pattern reports the previously stored
code, the new code was not entered correctly. Please repeat steps 1 through 7
above considering the following.
NOTE: Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not recognize
