Audiovox APS-55 Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
KEYLESS ENTRY
1. Button 1 on the transmitter is used to lock and unlock the vehicle's doors. To lock or unlock
the doors simply press and release this button one time. As a keyless entry unit, for your
convenience, the parking lights will flash once when the doors are locked and twice when
the door are unlocked.
REMOTE CAR FINDER
Button 1 is also used to access the car finder mode. This feature is particularly
useful in a crowded parking lot where finding your car may be difficult. To
access the car finder mode, while within range of your car, simply press and
hold button 1 of your transmitter for three seconds. The parking lights will
begin to flash making your vehicle more visible. The lights will stop
automatically after 30 seconds. If you wish to turn off the car finder mode prior
to the expiration of the 30 second timer, press and release button one of your
transmitter one time
.

loaded start position), then step on the brake pedal to disengage the remote starter. The
vehicle will continue to run, but now on it's own power.

accessories will remain operational.
