Audiovox APS-995 Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
ELIMINATING THE NORMAL ARM / DISARM CHIRPS
As explained earlier in the manual, you can eliminate the chirps selectively any
time you arm or disarm the system simply by holding the ARM or DISARM button
for two seconds. If you find the normal arming and disarming chirps annoying,
they can be turned off permanently, eliminating the need to hold the ARM / DIS-
ARM button for 2 seconds. To do this,
1. Turn the ignition key on then off.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release valet switch three times.
3. If the chirps were on before you started, then you will hear two chirps indicat-
ing they have been turned off.
If the chirps were off before you started, then you will hear one chirp indicating
they have been turned on.
NOTE: Whenever the chirps are bypassed, the 4-chirp intrusion indicator
and 3 chirp defective zone indicator will always operate. Since these are
important warnings to you that something has happened, they cannot be
eliminated.
REMOTE PANIC OPERATION
The Lock or Unlock button on your keychain transmitter also functions as a panic
switch for use in emergency situations. To use remote panic,
1. Press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the keychain transmitter for 3 or
more seconds. The alarm will immediately sound.
2. To stop the alarm, press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the transmitter
again for 3 seconds. If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically
stop after 30 seconds. Also if any transmitter button other than the Lock or
Unlock button is pressed and released, the Panic mode will be turned off
immediately. The normal function of this transmitter button will be suspended
during the Panic sounding period.
3. During the panic mode, the Lock and Unlock buttons can be used to lock and
unlock the doors, (if the option is installed), however once the unlock/disarm
button is pressed, the vehicle's starter inhibit device, (where installed) will be
disabled allowing the vehicle to start.
NOTE: While in the Panic mode, pressing and releasing the Lock or Un-
lock buttons will, if the option is installed, lock and unlock the doors respectively.
While in the panic mode, anytime the Unlock button is pressed, the panic feature
will continue for the allotted 30 seconds, however, the security system will be
disarmed allowing the vehicle to start.
R. F. SHOCK SENSOR MODE SELECTION
The way in which your alarm system reacts to threatening vibrations, created by
attempts to enter the vehicle by breaking a window, is adjustable by the transmitter
immediately after arming. There are 4 modes of operation that can be selected
by the operator.
1. Normal Operation (default mode)
In this mode, any strong vibrations will cause the siren to sound (full
detect) for 30 seconds. Any lesser vibration will cause the siren to emit
about 6 short warn away chirps, (pre-detect).
2. Stage 1 (Omit pre-detect)
In this mode, the warn away chirps created by the lesser vibration will be
deleted. If strong vibration occurs, the siren will sound.
