Your system has many features and available options some of which are selected at time of installation. Consult your installing dealer for options that may have been installed and are not listed.
ARMING THE SYSTEM:
- Turn the engine OFF, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.
- Press and release the LOCK button of your Factory (OEM) transmitter one time. The parking lights will flash once, the siren will chirp once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed.
NOTE: If the siren/horn sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or hood lid ajar. Simply close the opened entry point to provide full protection.
PASSIVE ARMING: If the passive arming feature has been selected:
- Turn the engine OFF, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk. The dash mounted LED will begin to flash rapidly indicating that the 30 second passive arming timer has begun. If the LED does not begin to flash rapidly, then you have left a door, hood, or trunk ajar. Closing this entry point will allow the arming cycle to begin. If any entry point is opened during the 30 second arming cycle, arming will be suspended. When all entry points are closed, the arming cycle will begin again.
- At the end of the 30 seconds, the parking lights will flash once, the siren will chirp once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED:
- Opening any protected entry point, hood, trunk, or doors will cause the alarm to trigger immediately. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds, then stop and continue to monitor all protected entry points. If the thief left the door opened, the system will sound for six 30 second cycles then shut down, isolate the triggered zone and continue to protect all other zones.
- Whenever the system is armed, the dash mounted LED will slowly flash. This serves as a visual deterrent to a potential thief. This LED is a very low current light emitting diode, and will not cause the battery to drain even if left unattended for long periods of time.
- Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will flash for the full siren sounding period.
- Optional - whenever the system is triggered, the interior courtesy light will flash for the full siren sounding period. Optional whenever the system is armed, the vehicle starter circuit is disabled, and the vehicle will not start with the ignition key.
- Whenever the system is armed, any strong impact to the vehicle will cause the shock sensor to trigger the alarm. Any lesser impact will cause the pre-detect stage of the shock sensor to emit a few short series of warning tones from the siren.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM: As you approach the vehicle, press and release the UNLOCK button on your Factory (OEM) transmitter. The parking lights will flash 2 times, the siren will chirp 2 times, and the dash mounted LED will turn off.
NOTE: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted LED will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any door will suspend the automatic arming.
If the parking lights flashed 3 times, and the siren chirps 4 times, this indicates that the alarm system was triggered during your absence. Before turning on the ignition key, examine the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies the triggered zone. For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS found later in this manual.
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNAL: This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away from the vehicle. Upon disarm, the siren will chirp 4 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times. Enter the vehicle and before turning on the ignition switch, observe the LED flash pattern.
- If the LED flashes 2 times...pause, 2 times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to open the hood, trunk, or by an accessory triggering device. Check the vehicle for indications of forced entry to these openings.
- If the LED flashes 3 times...pause, 3 times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to the vehicle doors. Check all doors for indications of forced entry.
- If the LED flashes 4 times...pause, 4 times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made by impact or a strong vibration that the shock sensor detected. Check the vehicle for possible damage to the glass or body panels.
NOTE: The LED intrusion warning indications are stored in the system's memory and will be erased when the ignition switch is turned on.
VALET/OVERRIDE SWITCH: The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating the need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the system is in valet mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however the remote panic feature and remote door locks will remain operational.
- Enter the vehicle, and turn the ignition key to the ON position.
- Press and hold the valet pushbutton switch until the dash mounted LED turns on solid. The system will remain in the valet mode.
- To return to normal operation, press and release the push button switch any time the ignition is on.
NOTE: Always remember to return the vehicle to the valet OFF position. This will ensure that the vehicle remains protected at all times.
USING THE VALET/OVERRIDE SWITCH: Your Security system can be disarmed without the use of the OEM transmitter. This is necessary, since you will need the ability to operate your vehicle if the transmitter is lost or its battery fails. Typically this override mode is used only if the Factory (OEM) transmitter has become inoperative. To by-pass the system:
- Open the vehicle door. The alarm will sound.
- Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
- Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet pushbutton switch. The alarm system will stop sounding and enter the (by-passed) mode. You can now start and operate the vehicle normally.
ELIMINATING/RETURNING THE NORMAL ARM/DISARM CHIRPS: You can selectively eliminate the normal arm & disarm chirps using the valet/ override switch, following these steps.
- Turn the ignition key ON the OFF.
- Within 10 seconds of turning the ignition key OFF, press and release the valet/override switch 3 times.
- If, before step 1,the chirps were ON, then you will hear 2 short chirps, which indicates the chirps are turned OFF.
- If, before step 1, the chirps were OFF. then you will hear 1 short chirp, which indicates the chirps are turned ON.
- Whenever the system's power has been disconnected, the chirps will be ON when power is reconnected.
