YOUR “CODE HOPPING“ 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 keychain
transmitter and re-transmit at a later time to disarm your system.
Your Keeloq Code Hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the
button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then re-transmits your signal, the alarm
system will not respond.
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.

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 is pressed.
NOTE:This system is custom congurable and can be set up
to operate with a number of options controlled from any transmitter button or button combination. For reference, we will
describe operation assuming that your system is programmed
for separate lock and unlock buttons. Also reference will be
made to the icons as shown on the buttons left.
ther in this manual See "System Status" described later in this manual. Con-
sult 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.
SILENT ARMING - ACTIVE (Feature must be activated during programming)
During step 2 above, hold the transmitter button for 2 seconds then release. The
unit will arm without the chirps for this one lock cycle.
NOTE: The LCD based remote will be explained in detail fur-
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 passive
arming has begun.
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;
The dash mounted LED begins to ash slowly.
Parking Lights ash one time.
Siren sounds one chirp
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.
Doors Lock - Optional
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.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED
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.
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
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 operate 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
2 Step 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.
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 accidently 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.
Page 6

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 CONTROL
SWITCH
The Pushbutton 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
ensure that the vehicle remains protected at all times.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE RECEIVERS PUSHBUTTON 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;
1. Open the vehicle door. The alarm will sound.
2. Turn the ignition key to the on position.
3. Within 5 seconds, press and release the push-button override switch.
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 # 10 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
a 0 (Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.
NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire, or if the ignition switch is turned off for
more then 5 seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert back
to the last successfully stored code.
To change the code from the factory pre-assigned code of 11 to “52” you would do
the following:
1. Disarm the system by use of the transmitter, or by use of the emergency override
sequence.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
3. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Receivers push-button switch, 3 times.
4. 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.)
5. Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the Receivers push-button switch
to set the tenths digit. (As per the example, press and release 5 times to set the
tenths digit to 5)
6. Within 10 seconds of the last press of the pushbutton, turn the ignition switch
off then on.
7. Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the Receivers Push-button switch
to set the units digit.
(As per the example, press and release 2 times to set the units digit to 2).
8. Turn the ignition switch to the off position. Immediately observe the LED ash
pattern.
You will note the LED ashing ve times, pause, and then ash two times, pause.
This pattern will be repeated three times indicating the new code (52) has been
accepted and stored in memory.
NOTE: If after step 7, the LED ashes a code other than what was just entered,
this indicates that the code has not been changed. You will have to
repeat steps 1 through 7 above being certain to note the following:
CUSTOM CODE PROGRAMMING EXAMPLE
Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not recognize a 0
(Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.
NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire, or if the ignition switch is turned off for more
then 5 seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert back to the last
successfully stored code.
