Arming While Driving

Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle! Simply press
while the vehicle is running. The siren will chirp once to
indicate that the security system is armed, and then once more to
indicate that the ignition is on. The system will not respond to
any input except the door triggers, and the starter kill relay (if
installed) will not be activated. Once you have arrived at your des-
tination, the system will disarm when the ignition is turned off.
The siren will chirp twice and the LED will then stop flashing. The
system can also be disarmed at any time by pressing .

Disarming

To turn off, or disarm the security system, press . You will
hear two chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the
power locks are controlled by the system, the doors will also
unlock. The siren chirping either four or five times when disarm-
ing indicates Tamper Alert, which is described in the Diagnostics
Section of this guide.

High Security Disarm

Your security system includes a High Security Disarm feature. After
6 seconds of trigger sequence, using the transmitter to disarm the
security system will only stop the trigger sequence (the siren will
stop and the parking lights will stop flashing). However, the sys-
tem will remain armed and the doors will stay locked. This is
extremely useful if you must stop the system from sounding, but
