PASSIVE ARMING
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” you leave the vehicle by opening and closing a door. Whenever
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. The siren will chirp one time 20 seconds after the last door has
been closed. The system is not actually armed at that point. The system arms and the doors lock
(if connected and programmed for passive locking) at the 30 second mark, but the siren will not
chirp. The early chirp provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming.
Note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-protected trunk or hood)
is open, the system will not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is programmed on).
See Programming Options section of this guide. Additionally, each time a protected entry is
triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:
Light impacts will trigger the Warn Away
®
signal. When triggered, the siren will chirp and
the parking lights will flash for a few seconds.
Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered sequence can be set for 30 or 60
seconds of constant siren and flashing parking lights.
If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chirping the siren and flashing the
parking lights. Three seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast. This
progressive response gives you time to disarm the system with your transmitter if you
inadvertently open the door while the system is armed, while still providing an instant
response (even if the door is immediately closed).
Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage response as opening a door.
The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking.
MULTI-LEVEL SECURITY ARMING
Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the security system’s inputs or sensors
will be active and which will be bypassed at the time that the system is armed. (See the Table of
Zones section of this guide.) Pressing
again within five seconds of arming the security system
will activate the Multi- Level Security Arming feature. Each time
is pressed again, a different
security level is selected. The different security levels can be selected as follows:
Press
one time: The siren chirps once. The system is armed.
Press
a second time within five seconds: The siren chirps twice followed by a long chirp.
Zone 2 is now bypassed.
Press
three times followed by a long chirp. Zone 4 is now bypassed.
