20 seconds after the last door has been closed. The system is not
actually armed at that point. The system arms and the doors lock
(if connected and programmed for passive locking) at the 30
second point, but the siren will not chirp. The early chirp provides
you with a 10-second warning prior to arming.
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 of
this guide. Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming
countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:
■ Light impacts will trigger the Warn Away
®
signal. The siren will
chirp and the parking lights will flash for a few seconds.
■ Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered sequence
is 25 seconds (default) of constant siren and flashing parking
lights; however, the triggered sequence can be programmed
for any duration from 1-180 seconds by an authorized dealer.
■ If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chirp-
ing the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three seconds
later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast. This
progressive response allows you time to disarm the system
with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door while
the system is armed, while still providing an instant response
(even if the door is immediately closed).
■ Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage
response as opening a door.
■ The fuel interrupt, ignition interrupt and starter kill work
together to provide Security Interrupt, a feature that prevents
the vehicle’s engine from starting.
