V.O.E. T. SWITCH

The V.O.E.T.switch has fourconvenient functions:

The valet functionallows easy, permanent disarmingofthe alarm system. This is
useful for unloading groceries, or servicing the car. Toactivate the valet mode, turn
the ignitionkey on and flipthe V.O.E.T. switchon then back to off. Nowthe alarm
willnot arm. Ifyou wish to deactivate the valet mode, turnthe ignitionon and flip

the V.O.E.T.switch on then back to off. Nowthe alarm can be armed.
The emergency dlsann functionis a back-up method of disarming the alarm in

case the transmitter is lost or stolen. To disarm the alarm, firstopen a door. The
alarm willbegin to sound. Turn on the key and then flipthe V.O.E.T.switch to the
on positionand then back to the offposition.

The defective zone override functionlets the alarm arm even ifone or more of the
alarm's sensing devices are defective. Forexample, ifthe door switchis defective

the alarm willnot arm and thus willnot"CHIRP". To arm the remaining sensors, flip
the V.O.E.T.switchto the on position. (The switchwillremain inthe on position.) To
disengage the defective zone override, flipthe V.O.E.T.switch back to the off

position.

IMPORTANT:Armingthe alarm withthe override (V.O.E.T.)switchinthe "ON"
positionwilldisable the fail-safearmingfeature and force the alarm to arm with an
open or defective door/sensor. Withthe override (V.O.E.T.)switch "ON",the alarm
system, when armed, is not fullyprotectingthe vehicle. Repair the alarm system

and return the override (V.O.E.T.)switchto the "OFF"positionas soon as possible.

--+-

The temporary di.ann functioncan be used to temporarilydisarm the alarm. This
is useful for leaving the car for a short period of time such as during a stop at a gas
station. To operate, turn offthe key and flipthe V.O.E.T. switchon and then back
to off. If you change your mindand wish to leave the car foran extended time,
press the transmitter button to arm the alarm. The temporary disarm feature is
automaticallydisenganged once the keyis turned on.

For a quick reference guide on the V.O.E.T.Switch,see reverse side.

ALARM DURATION

Ifthe alarm is triggered, it will sound in four 28-second cycles with a 10-second
pause between cycles. For example, ifthe door is opened by an intruder, the alarm

willautomaticallysound for28 seconds. Ifthe door has not been shut before the

end of the 28-second cycle, the alarm will continue to sound for three more cycles
and then stop sounding. Duringthis time the lights will flash in 38-second cycles
with no pause. If any of the other sensors are triggered, or the same door is closed
and then reopened, the process will begin again.

FOUR FUNCTION LED
The alarm brain red LED has four useful functions:

. The RFtransmitter-receiver can be tested by pushing the transmitter button.

If the alarm brain LEDcomes on, the transmitter-receiver is working properly.

. When in valet mode the LED will flash 1.5seconds on, 0.5 second off.

This alerts you to the fact that the alarm is currently off. It also gives the
appearance to would-be thieves that the alarm is armed.

. When the VS1000 is fully armed, the LED will flash 0.5 second on,1.5 seconds

off, as a warning to would-be thieves that your vehicle is protected by an alarm.

. WhentheVS1000isnotarmednorinthevaletmode, the LED will be off.

door/sensor. WIththe override (V.O.E.T.) switch "ON",the aIann system, when armed, is not fullyprotecting the vehicle. Repair the alarm system and
return the override (V.O.E.T.) switch to the "OFP position as soon as possible.
AUTOMATICARMING - Alarm willarm automatically 15 seconds after the last door is shut. However, if you wish, you can arm the alarm manually after the
last door is shut, by pressing the transmitter button once.
Two ways to remove the "temporary disarm of automatic arming" feature:

(1) Close all doors and press the transmitter once. The alarm will"chirp" and arm.

(2) Turn the ignition key from offto on, then back to off. Open the door, then shut the door. The alarm willgo back to the "automatic arming" mode.
When the VS1000 is fully armed, the LEDwillflash 0.5 second on, 1.5 seconds off. When in valet mode, the LED willflash 1.5 seconds on, 0.5 second off.
This protects car in valet mode, as thief willsee flashing LED and assume alarm is armed.
