CONFIRMATION
When the alarm is armed, one chirp of the siren and/or flash of the parking lights means that all protection
zones are in normal condition and system is ready.
and ARM icons will be shown on your remote with a soft
chirp.
Three chirps or flashes means that one or more zones are in violation (i.e. at least one door is opened). At that
time, the remote will show and ARM but with a high chirp, reminding you to correct the violated zone.
Once the zone is corrected (i.e. door closed), the system sends another confirmation (one chirp or flash if all
zones are in normal condition, three chirps or flashes if another zone is in violation).
If a zone is in violation when system is armed manually (using remote) and the cause of the violation is not
corrected, the alarm will still arm but this zone will not be able to generate an alarm condition. See also "DOME
LIGHT DURATION" on page 13.
When you disarm the alarm, two chirps or flashes indicate that no one tried to break into or do anything to your
vehicle, and four chirps or flashes indicate that an alarm condition occurred during your absence. Your remote
will also tell by the chirp previously describe.
The following table summarizes this section.
CONFIRMATION MEANING
1 chirp or flash System armed, no zone in violation.
2 chirps or flashes System disarmed, no violation detected.
3 chirps or flashes System armed with zone in violation. Indicator light indicates which zone.
4 chirps or flashes
System disarmed with violation detected.
Indicator light indicates cause of alarm condition.
INDICATOR LIGHT
Indicator light flashes a specific number of times (see table below) to indicate different alarm conditions when
arming and disarming the system.
It can also act as a deterrent if installed in a place visible from outside the vehicle.
DURING ARMING Indicator flashes codes for zones in violation (i.e. at least one door is opened).
Only one code is shown at a time. If more than one zone is in violation during arming, code changes when zone
shown is corrected (example: door closed).
DURING DISARMING Indicator flashes code for last zone that generated the alarm condition.
Code is shown when you press
button.
This code is repeated until you apply the brakes.
The table on the next page shows the meaning of zone codes (number of flashes).
