REMOTE PANIC OPERATION
The arm/disarm button of your keychain transmitter also serves as a panic switch and will
turn the alarm on from the maximum operating range of the transmitter. In an emergency
situation, to use the panic feature, press and hold the arm/disarm button of your
keychain transmitter for 3 seconds. This will cause the lights to flash, the siren to sound,
and if the optional interior illumination circuit was installed, the interior light will flash.
To disengage the panic feature, press and hold the arm/disarm button for 3 seconds. If
you do not shut off the panic feature, the system will time out and shut off automatically
after 30 seconds.
During this mode, all normal transmitter functions are operational.
