Using Your System
Arming
You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing button I of your transmitter for
one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound, or
chirp, and see the parking lights flash once. If the vehicle’s power door locks
are controlled by the system, the doors will lock.
While the system is armed, the Status LED will flash about twice a second,
showing that the system is actively protecting your vehicle.
If you hear a second chirp
after arming and see the Status LED flashes in
groups, see
Diagnostics
section. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notifica-
tion.
The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called
passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it will
automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off and the system

The optional Vehicle Recovery System is armed and disarmed using a
hidden push button switch. If the system has been installed, make sure you
are aware of the location of the VRS
®
button.
Arming the VRS
®
To arm the VRS
®
, push the button once. This can be done before
driving or while driving the vehicle. Once the system is armed, it will go into its
triggered sequence (see below) if any door is opened and closed. If you are
forced from the vehicle the system will trigger as the door will be opened and
closed as you leave the vehicle. This is how the system works to combat
intersection carjacking. If ordered from the vehicle, you may press the VRS
®
button before exiting. Arming prior to that point, however, is highly recom-
mended.
To protect against parking lot carjacking, simply press the VRS
®
button once
before leaving the vehicle. The system will now trigger automatically the next
time you or anyone drives the vehicle. This helps to protect the vehicle if
someone takes your keys and alarm remote by force in a parking lot.
NOTE: If the VRS
®
is armed while operating the vehicle and not disarmed prior
to leaving the vehicle, it remains armed and will trigger the next time the
vehicle is driven.
VRS
®
Trigger Sequence
Fifteen seconds
after the last door has closed, the system's Status LED
will begin flashing. This delay is to allow you to put distance between yourself
and your vehicle in the event of a carjacking.
NOTE:
If the system is in Valet
®
Mode, the VRS
®
feature will still
protect your vehicle. However, the Status LED will not provide this
first-level indication if the VRS
®
triggers with the system in Valet
®
Mode.
Forty-five seconds later,
the Soft Chirp™ Revenger™ siren will
begin chirping and the parking lights will begin flashing. This time could be
used to notify authorities that your vehicle has been hijacked, and tell them
what the VRS
®
will do next.
Fifteen seconds
after the siren chirps begin, the siren's output will
