"sees" you leave the vehicle by opening and closing a door. Whenever the
system is in its 30-second passive arming countdown, the Status LED will
flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed.
NOTE: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-protected trunk
or hood) is open, the system will not passively arm (unless forced passive
arming is programmed on. See
Programming Options
section). Additionally,
each time a sensor is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second
countdown starts over.
When armed, your vehicle is protected
in the following ways:
• Light impacts will trigger the Warn Away
®
signal. When triggered, the
siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash for a few seconds.
• Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The trigger sequence is 30
seconds of constant siren and flashing parking lights.
• If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chirping the siren
and flashing the parking lights. Three seconds later, the siren output
changes to a continuous blast. This progressive response gives you
time to disarm the system with your transmitter if you inadvertently open
the door while the system is armed, while still providing instant re-
sponse (even if the door is immediately closed).
• Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage response as
opening a door.
• The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking.
Arming While Driving
Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle! Simply press button I
on your transmitter for 1.5 seconds while the vehicle is running, or the ignition is
on. The system will chirp once and then once more to indicate that the ignition
is on. The system will not respond to any input except the door triggers and the
starter kill relay (if installed) will not be activated. The system will disarm
automatically when the ignition is turned off. The siren will chirp twice and the
LED will stop flashing.
Disarming
To turn off, or disarm the system, press button I again. You will hear two
chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If power locks are controlled by
he system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps either
four
or
five
times
when disarming, see
Diagnostics
section. This is called Tamper Alert.

The optional Vehicle Recovery System
feature
is designed to ensure that any unauthorized
user of your vehicle (even if using your keys
and remote control) will not be able to perma-
nently separate you from your vehicle.
The VRS
®
feature cannot
prevent
a carjacking
attempt, however, it does ensure that if your
vehicle is taken by an unauthorized user, it will
be disabled (after several progressive warn-
ings) as safely as possible. Should a carjacking
occur, the VRS
®
allows you to concern yourself
with your personal safety without worrying
about your property.
Vehicle Recovery
System
(VRS
®
)*
DEI
®
has engineered this vehicle security system, the FailSafe
®
starter kill, and
the VRS
®
feature to provide the best combination of personal safety and
property protection available. When properly installed, the system can
never
inadvertently stop your vehicle in traffic, on railroad tracks, etc., unlike any
system that shuts down your engine while it is running. This system is de-
signed to perform
starter interrupt,
or
starter kill
. The FailSafe
®
starter kill
cannot shut down an already-running engine, it can
only prevent an engine
from starting in the first place.
*The VRS
®
is an optional feature.
Any installation
which allows this
product to shut
down a vehicle’s
engine
as it is
running is
contrary to the
product’s design
and intended
usage, and DEI
®
hereby expressly
disclaims any
liability resulting
therefrom.
