Arming the System
The alarm system can be armed to detect break-ins by
locking your vehicle using the Remote Lock Control
transmitter or by locking the doors with the power door
lock switch. Passive arming is also available, if you
would like the system to arm all by itself after the doors
have been closed for a short time. When the system is
armed,
a
red light will flash briefly once every two
seconds. (Note: If you return to your vehicle and the red
light is flashing two brief flashes every two seconds, the
system is armed and the shock sensor had triggered a
two minute alarm. If the red light is flashing three times
every two seconds, the system is armed and there was an
intrusion that sounded the alarm). Horn chirps and
parking lamp flashes can be set to your choice.
Remote Lock Control Transmitter Locking
If all the doors are closed, locking the vehicle this way
will immediately arm the system. The horn will chirp
twice and the parking lamps will flash, confirming that
the system is armed. If any door is open when the
transmitter LOCK button is pressed, the system goes
into an armed wait mode, waiting for the doors to close.
Once they are closed, the system will arm, chirp the
horns twice and flash the parking lamps. If the hatch is
open or ajar at the time the system is arming, the horn
will only chirp once.
Power Door Lock Switch Locking
If any door is open when the power door lock switch
is pressed, the system goes into an armed wait mode,
waiting for the doors to close. Once they are closed, the
system will arm and flash the parking lamps. If all of the
doors are closed when the lock switch is pressed, the
system assumes you are inside of the vehicle, so it will
not arm. Note: Locking the doors by using the manual
door locks will not arm the system.
Passive Arming
If the ignition was just turned off and a door was
opened, the system will arm six seconds after all doors
are closed, whether or not you lock them. In all other
cases, the system will wait 30 seconds after all doors are
closed before arming, allowing you time to get into the
vehicle and the key in the ignition. The parking lamps
will flash when the system arms.
Disarming the System
There are two ways to disarm the system:
1. Press the UNLOCK button on the Remote Lock
Control transmitter, OR if the horn chirps two or
three times when you unlock the car, the alarm
sounded in your absence. Two chirps means that
the shock sensor was set off and three chirps means
2-14
