Using your S ystem
Arming
You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing Button I of your
transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short
siren sound,or chirp, and see the parking lights flash once. If the vehicle’s
power door locks are controled by the system, the doors will lock.
While the system is armed, the Status LED will flash about twice a
second, showing that the system is actively protecting your vehicle. If you
hear a second chirp after arming and see the Status LED flashes in groups,
see Diagnostics section. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.
The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called
passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it will
automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off and the
system“sees” y ou leave the v ehicle by opening and closing a door . Whenev er
the system is in its 30 second passive-arming countdown, the status led will
flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed.
NOTE: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switchprotected trunk or hood) is open, the system will not passively
arm, unless forced passive arming is progarmmed on. (See
Programming Options section). Additionally , eac h time a sensor is
triggered during the arming countdown, the 30 second countdo wn
starts over.)
