The following table shows the effect that each zone has on the rearming cycle.
Protection zone Effect on rearming cycle
Hood
Doors
Additional sensor (trunk)
Shock sensor
These four zones prolong rearming cycle as long as they remain in violation.
Ignition
Activated by ignition key: Cancels rearming
Activated by remote starter: No effect
Warning No effect
Applying brakes or ignition key in RUN position cancels rearming (until a door is opened, which causes rearming cycle to
restart from the beginning).
See also "TEMPORARY VALET MODE" (page 14) and "DOME LIGHT DURATION" (page 15).
You can disarm only with remote control by pressing
button (see Table of Commands on page 6).
System is disarmed immediately and restarts rearming cycle from the beginning.
TO TERMINATE ALARM CONDITION
You can terminate alarm condition by pressing button, which also disarms system. Pressing the button or the stop
command, will terminate alarm condition without disarming system.
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.
The remote control sends the following confirmations with one soft chirp.
Three siren chirps or parking flashes means that one or more zones are in
violation (i.e. at least one door is opened). At that time, the remote send the same
confirmations 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 15.
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 indicate
this with chirps as shown in the following table.
The following table summarizes this section.
CONFIRMATION

MEANING
1 System armed, no zone in violation.
2 System disarmed, no violation detected.
3 System armed with zone in violation. Indicator light indicates which zone.
4 System disarmed with violation detected. Indicator light indicates cause of alarm condition.
INDICATOR LIGHT
Indicator light flashes a specific number of times to indicate different alarm conditions when arming and disarming the
system (depending on settings during installation).
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).
