Operating the Code Alarm C-500 Vehicle Security System |
|
Using Your Remote Transmitter Arming the Security System: To arm the system, exit the vehicle, close all doors, then press and release the ARM button. The parking lights will flash twice and doors will lock (if equipped and connected), indicating the system is armed. The status indicator will turn on and blink steadily, once per second. If you press the ARM button again within 5 seconds the siren will chirp twice. If the parking lights flash only once, this indicates that the system has detected that the vehicle courtesy light is on, or that an entrance is not closed securely. Check to see that all vehicle entrances are closed securely. Once all entrances are secured (and the courtesy light is off), the system will chirp / flash again. The system is now fully armed. If all entrances are not secure the system will arm itself after 4 minutes. Disarming the Security System: To disarm the system, press and release the DISARM button. The parking lights will flash once, and the doors will unlock (if equipped and connected). The courtesy light will turn on for 1 minute, or until the vehicle is started. If you press disarm again within 5 seconds, the siren will chirp once.
Sensor Override: Your security system is equipped with an impact detector, which causes the system to emit a warning chirp for a light non threatening impact or alarm cycle upon harder impact to the vehicle. It may be necessary at times to temporarily disable the sensor feature, especially in areas where severe vibration can cause false alarms. Press button 1 & 2 together. The system will respond with three (3) chirps and three light flashes, indicating that the system is armed with the sensor disabled. This procedure disables the sensor for only one arm/disarm cycle. The sensor will be enabled the next time the alarm system is armed. Activating the Trunk Release Output: To activate the Trunk Release output, press and hold the DISARM button. The security system will disarm if it is armed, and the vehicle trunk / hatch will open. Personal Protection (Panic) Alarm: Pressing the panic button on the remote transmitter activates the Panic feature, sounding the siren and flashing the parking lights. Panic is designed to bring attention to the vehicle and surrounding area, warding off a would-be intruder. Press the panic button again to turn off the Panic alarm. Valet Mode: Valet mode, sometimes referred to as “keyless mode”, when engaged prevents the security system from arming - automatically or via the remote control transmitter - while allowing the convenience features (remote control door lock, unlock and trunk) to remain functional. Valet mode is useful when leaving your vehicle for service or any time you do not what your vehicle to be armed inadvertently.

System Maintenance Changing the Remote Transmitter Battery: The 12-volt alkaline battery supplied in your remote transmitter should last approximately one year, depending on usage. When the battery begins to weaken, you will notice a decrease in range, or the distance from your vehicle that your remote transmitter will operate. Follow the instructions below to change the remote transmitter battery.
Programming Remote Transmitters: Each system module has four “slots”, or memory locations, to store remote transmitter codes, giving it the ability to operate from up to four remote transmitters. For proper operation, a transmitter code must be stored into each memory slot. When using less than four transmitters, follow the suggested programming parameters: One Remote Transmitter - Program four (4) times, Two Remote Transmitters - Program each remote transmitter two (2) times, Three Remote Transmitters - Program one remote transmitter twice, and each remaining remote transmitter once.
