Your

Viper PowerSports VPS450 GPS

system

secures your vehicle

with built-in starter disable feature and GPS location.

It

prevents

the vehicle from being started, or sends you alerts if your vehicle

is

stolen

or

moved without permission.

In

order to optimize the battery life

of

your powersports vehicle,

the VPS450

is

kept in sleep mode

at

all times unless woken up

by

specific activity:

Important:

The

VPS450 can take

45-60

seconds

to

connect to

the

cellular network after it wakes up and will not respond to

commands until connected.

To

ensure

that you can start your vehicle quickly and easily

in

remote areas where cellular coverage may be poor,

we

rec­ommend that your authorized Viper Powersports dealer always
installs

the

local override switch.

This

allows you to securely start

the

vehicle even if the device

is

out

of

contact with

the

network.
