stop and continue to monitor all protected entry points. If the thief left the door opened,
the unit will sound for six 30 second cycles then shut down, isolate the triggered zone
and continue to protect all other zones.
Whenever the system is armed, the dash mounted LED will slowly flash. This serves as
a visual deterrent to a potential thief. This LED is a very low current light emitting diode,
and will not cause the battery to drain even if left unattended for long periods of time.
Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will flash for the full siren
sounding period. Optional - whenever the system is triggered, the interior courtesy light
will flash for the full siren sounding period.
Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle starter circuit is disabled, and the vehicle
will not start with the ignition key.
Whenever the system is armed, any strong impact to the vehicle will cause the shock
detector to trigger the alarm. Any lesser impact will cause the pre-detect stage of the
shock sensor to emit a few short series of warning tones from the siren.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM
As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Arm/Disarm button on the keychain
transmitter.
The parking lights will flash two times, the siren will chirp twice, and the dash mounted
LED will turn off.
If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors will unlock. If you
have the optional entry illumination circuit installed, the interior light will turn on for
30 seconds or until the ignition key is switched on.
Note:If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted
LED will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any
door will suspend the automatic arming.
If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates
that the alarm system was triggered during your absence. Before turning on the ignition
key, examine the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies
the triggered zone. For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING
SIGNALS found later in this manual.
If the siren did not sound upon disarm, then the chirps have been turned off. Refer to
the section titled ELIMINATING THE ARM/DISARM CHIRPS.
