Disarming the VRS
®
Take the time to familiarize yourself with the VRS triggering sequence and the
disarm procedure. It is important to recognize the VRS and know how to disarm
it in case of accidental activation.
Remember, neither the transmitter nor the Valet
®
button will disarm the VRS
®
feature. Only the hidden arm/disarm button, or the Ghost Switch, can disarm
the VRS
®
.
Regardless of whether or not VRS is triggering, the procedure used to disarm
VRS remains the same.
Once again, if VRS is armed, it does not disarm automatically.You must disarm
it the next time you operate the vehicle.You must manually disarm it following
this procedure:
Turn the ignition key on. If you are driving the vehicle, skip this
step. Press and release the hidden VRS button, or operate the
Ghost Switch the proper number of times. Pressing the disarm
button of the transmitter will not disarm VRS, nor will the Valet
button.You must use either the VRS button or the Ghost Switch to disarm VRS.
Remember, neither the transmitter nor the Valet button will disarm the VRS feature. Only the hidden arm/disarm
button, or the Ghost Switch, can disarm VRS.
LED confirmation of the VRS
®
state
The system will report the VRS state to the dash mounted LED. To check the
state of the VRS system, simply press and hold the VRS® button. After two
seconds, the LED will flash in groups. Groups of one indicate that VRS is
armed, while groups of two indicate that the VRS is disarmed.
Pressing and holding the VRS button does not cause VRS to change state.
Only pressing the VRS button for less than one second will arm or disarm VRS.
For example, to arm VRS and then confirm that on the LED:
1. Press and release the VRS button.
2. Press and hold the VRS button.
3. The LED will flash in groups of one to confirm
arming of the VRS.
