Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of this vehicle security system. In learning to operate your security system, please become familiar with the following three principal components: the Remote Transmitter, the Red LED Status Light, and the Valet Switch.

The Remote Transmitter: Each security system comes with two pre-learned

transmitters, but can learn up to 4 different transmitters. The transmitter has three buttons: one large button and two smaller buttons. This system is pre-programmed, through a builtin learning routine, to have the transmitter buttons work in the following configuration:

The large button is used to arm, disarm and panic the security system.

The small center button pressed for 2 seconds operates the trunk release feature.

The small lower button pressed for 2 seconds activates the 3rd Channel output or engages

the Anti-Carjacking feature, provided that it is programmed to operate.

The Valet Switch: This switch is used to prevent automatic system functions, such

as Last Door Arming or Automatic Rearming, by placing the system into Valet Mode. The Valet Switch is also used, in conjunction with the ignition key, to disarm the security system in the event the transmitter becomes inoperable. This switch is also used in the procedure for programming features and transmitters.

The Red LED Status Light: Informs you of the different conditions the system can

be in and also serves as a visual deterrent to break-ins and theft. Please spend time reviewing this guide and to become familiar with your vehicle security system.

Transmitter Operations

LED Light-

Illuminates when the Transmitter is operating.

Small Center

Transmitter Button-

Pressing and holding this button for 3 seconds can be used to remotely open the trunk (optional parts may be needed).

Small Lower

Transmitter Button-

Pressing this button for 3 seconds will engage the 3rd Channel Output or the programmable AntiCarjacking feature. Please see the sections describing these features.

Large Transmitter Button-

Pressing and releasing this button will arm and disarm the alarm, which optionally locks and unlocks the doors. Pressing and holding this button for 3 seconds will "Panic" the alarm- sounding the siren, flashing the exterior lights.

Arming Your Security System

"Arming" your security system, which is to place it into a state whereby an intrusion attempt will activate it, may be done by two methods. First, the transmitter may be used to "actively" arm the system, provided the ignition switch is "off" and the system is not in Valet Mode. Second, an automatic method of "passively" arming the security system is Last Door Arming. This method may be selectively programmed to operate or not operate, and if it is utilized, it will not affect the operation of Active Arming via the transmitter.

Actively Arming The Security System Using The Transmitter: The

security system can always be armed with the transmitter, provided the ignition switch is “off” and the system is not in the Valet Mode. To arm the system, after you exit the vehicle and close all doors, simply press the large transmitter button once. The siren will chirp once, the parking lights will flash once, and the LED Status Light will begin flashing, confirming that the system is arming. Provided the optional doorlock interface was installed, the doors will also lock upon arming, and the starter interrupt circuit will prevent any attempt to start the vehicle. Three seconds after the siren chirp the system becomes fully armed, and will activate if an intrusion attempt is detected.

When active arming, if protected zone is in a violated state, the system will still arm, but protection for that circuit will be bypassed. Should the affected circuit be returned to its normal state, protection is restored. When a circuit is in a bypassed state, all other operating circuits will be protected normally.

Passively Arming The Security System With Last Door Arming: The

security system will arm itself automatically when the vehicle's last door is closed. The moment the last door closes the system begins a countdown, as indicated by a fast-flashing LED Status Light. Thirty seconds after the last door was closed, the siren will chirp once, and the LED Status Light will change to flashing slowly. When this occurs the alarm is armed, the starter interrupt output becomes active, and the doors will lock if the door lock interface is installed and the "Doors Lock With Last Door Arming and Automatic Rearming" feature is turned on.

If a point of entry is reopened before the single chirp indicating arming, the Last Door Arming will be suspended; when the point of entry is reclosed, the 30 second countdown will start again. The "Last Door Arming" feature offers a high level of security, since you do not have to remember to arm the alarm system every time you exit your vehicle. In addition, Last Door arming may entitle you to an insurance discount. As “Last Door Arming” is a programmable feature, if its operation is not desired it may be turned off.

-To prevent the security system from Last Door Arming while vehicle is being refueled or at other times automatic arming is not desired, you should put the system in Valet Mode or you may keep your door open. Leaving the ignition switch "on" is not recommended.

-You can still arm the alarm instantly from the transmitter anytime during the 30 second Last Door Arming countdown.

Security System Armed And Activated

While the security system is in an armed state, the LED Status Light will be flashing. In this mode, any detected entry or triggered sensor will instantly activate the system. When activated, the following actions occur:

- The electronic siren will start sounding, changing its sound every 5 seconds to attract more attention to the vehicle.

- The exterior lights will flash during the activation period.

The siren will sound and the lights will flash for 30 seconds, at which time the system will automatically reset, unless you disarm the system with the transmitter or Valet Switch and ignition key. The 30 second activation period is programmable; if desired, the activated period may be changed to be 60 seconds.

If all protected entries are secure at the end of the activated cycle, the system will stop and rearm automatically to detect, and respond to, another entry attempt. However, if there is a protected entry still open, or a sensor still in a violated state at the end of the activation period, the system will respond one of two ways. If the door circuit is violated, and remains so, the system will reactivate for up to three more cycles before it rearms and bypasses the door circuit. Should any of the other protected zones be in a violated state at the end of the activated cycle, the system will rearm with that zone bypassed. In either case, should the

bypassed zone be secured, protection will be reinstated for that circuit. If the system does rearm with a bypassed zone, all other secure zones are still fully protected.

After the security system has been activated, the audible disarm confirmation will no longer be 2 chirps; instead, the system will respond by producing 4 siren chirps. In addition, the LED Status Light will change to flashing one to four times between pauses, instead of flashing fast to indicate Automatic Rearming, or being off if Automatic Rearming is turned off. This flash sequence indicates which protected zone triggered the system.

- 1 flash, pause, repeat = system was activated by current sensing.

- 2 flashes, pause, repeat = system was activated from the hood or trunk circuit.

- 3 flashes and pause = system was activated from the door circuit.

- 4 flashes and pause = system was activated from the auxiliary input.

The LED Status Light will flash this violation code while the system is activated. Upon disarming, this code will again flash for 90 seconds, or until the ignition switch is turned "on". The system can retain up to four violation codes in its memory. If multiple zones were violated, the system’s memory circuit will hold the violation codes in order of occurrence, with a maximum of four violation codes being held.
