l Turning the ignition key ON will trigger the alarm for 30 seconds.
l The optional Engine Immobilizer prevents the car from being started.
l If the shock sensor detects light taps on the car, it will trigger the pre-intrusion alert (the siren chirps
three times, and the parking lights flash three times [lights flash for VS255XR only]) to warn potential
thieves and vandals. However, if the shock sensor detects a strong shock to the car, such as shock
caused by prying the Boot open, it will trigger the alarm for 30 seconds. (See DUAL-STAGE SHOCK
SENSOR.)
CHIRP DELETE (silent arm/disarm)
There are times, especially at night, when you may not want to hear the siren chirps.
Just press button #2 any time before you need the chirps deleted. For instance, press button #2 before
you press button #1 to arm or disarm the alarm, and the chirps will not sound, but the parking lights will still
flash (lights flash for VS255XR only). The chirps are restored the next time you press a transmitter button.
NOTE — This function deletes the chirps for disarm, zone bypass, sensor bypass, valet, and tamper.
However, it does not affect the flashing parking lights. (VS255XR only)
VALET
Sometimes you may not wish to arm your alarm when you leave your vehicle. (For instance, if you leave
your car with a valet attendant, you may not want to teach him how the alarm operates.)
To enter valet, first disarm the alarm and turn the ignition ON/OFF 4 times within 15 seconds. The alarm
is now in the valet mode. The siren chirps and the parking lights flash once to confirm (lights flash for
VS255XR only). Your alarm also goes into valet when you use emergency disarm. (See EMERGENCY
DISARM).
To exit valet, just turn the ignition ON/OFF 4 times within 15 seconds. The siren chirps twice and the
parking lights flash twice (lights flash for VS255XR only) to confirm valet is exited and the alarm is
disarmed.
If you press transmitter button #1 while the alarm is in valet, the alarm will not arm but the doors will lock
or unlock, and the parking lights will flash four times (VS255XR only). The alarm's emergency call for
help operates normally.
DUAL-STAGE SHOCK SENSOR
Your alarm includes a patented dual-stage shock sensor.
The first stage (pre-intrusion alert) warns thieves the alarm is armed. For instance, the alarm will chirp
three times and the parking lights will flash three times (lights flash for the VS255XR only) if the sensor
detects a light bump to the vehicle. However, if the thief attacks the car with sufficient force, the alarm will
trigger.
Your dealer can make the shock sensor more or less sensitive to attack, depending on your vehicle.
POWER DOOR LOCKS (VS255XR only)
With this optional feature, your alarm can automatically lock the doors when armed and unlock the doors
when disarmed. The doors lock and unlock any time transmitter button #1 is pressed (exception — See
EMERGENCY CALL FOR HELP ). For extra security, they lock automatically if the alarm is triggered.
Extra accessories may be required, i.e. SEA169 Interface, SEA170 Door Motor.
ENGINE IMMOBILIZER SEA865
With this optional feature, while your alarm is armed, your car will not start.
TAMPER INDICATOR
If your alarm was triggered when you were away, the siren will chirp four times and the parking lights flash
four times, then turn ON for 6 seconds when you disarm your alarm.
These "memory" flashes automatically reset when the ignition is turned ON.
OPTIONAL BACKUP BATTERY
With main power disconnected, the backup battery will normally last for at least 24 hours, assuming the
alarm was not triggered. If triggered continuously, it would last for approximately 6 minutes. A 9V
rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium battery must be used. The alarm will recharge the battery automatically.
CODE LEARNING
The alarm can learn a maximum of 4 remotes. RF CodeWash™ deletes all previous remotes when any
new remote is learned. This prevents unauthorized use of lost or stolen transmitters, and alerts the user if
someone has secretly code- learned a new transmitter. However, it also means that, when code-learning
is being done, ALL THE USER'S TRANSMITTERS MUST BE CODE LEARNED AT THE SAME TIME.
