4. Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will flash for the 30 second
alarm cycle, attracting added visual attention to the vehicle.
5. Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle's starter will be bypassed. If a thief should
choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can not be started.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM:
1. As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Unlock button on the keychain
transmitter.
WARNING! Excessive pressure on the transmitter buttons will damage the internal components
on the circuit board. All that is required is a light push to the button.
2. The siren will "chirp" 2 times and the vehicle's parking lamps will flash two times.
3A. ACTIVE: The dash mounted LED will turn off, and remain off until the system is re-armed.
3B. PASSIVE: Never attempt to disarm the system from a distance that prevents you from
opening a door within 30 seconds. Since the system is programmed for passive arming,
it will begin to re-arm until a door is opened. Opening the door will suspend the passive
arming cycle.
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS:
The system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away from the
vehicle. If an intrusion attempt has occurred, the siren will "chirp" 4 times when disarming the
system.
The vehicle's parking lights will also flash 3 times to indicate an intrusion has occurred. Enter
the vehicle and observe the dash mounted LED for further information.
1. If the LED is flashing one time... pause...one time... etc., then an intrusion attempt was
made to a light activated entry point, or the shock sensor was activated.
2. If the LED is flashing two times...pause...two times...etc., then an intrusion attempt was
made to the hood, trunk, or an optional sensor that has been connected to zone 2.
3. If the LED is flashing three times...pause...three times...etc., then an intrusion attempt was
made through one of the vehicle's doors.
These intrusion warning indicators are stored in the system's memory, and will only be erased
from memory when the ignition key is turned on.
Push-Button LED Valet / SYSTEM OVERRIDE Switch:
The "Valet" switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating the need
to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the system is in
valet mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however, the remote panic feature and remote
door locks (optional) will remain operational. To use the valet mode;
1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition key to the "on" position.
2. Press and hold the LED valet push-button switch for 5 seconds until the LED turns
on solid. The LED will remain on as long as the system is in the valet mode.
3. To return to normal operation, with the ignition switch on, press and release the LED valet
push-button switch one time. The LED will turn off indicating the unit has been returned
to the normal mode of operation.
In the event you lose your keychain transmitter, or if the transmitter fails to disarm the system,
the valet switch can be used as a system override switch. Open the car door (the alarm
