Arming The Vrs - Directed Electronics Matrix 2 Owner's Manual

Directed has engineered this vehicle security system, the fault-
®
proof starter interrupt, and the VRS feature to provide the best
combination of personal safety and property protection avail-
able. When properly installed, the system can never inadvertent-
ly stop your vehicle in traffic or on railroad tracks while the
vehicle is in operation. It is unlike other systems that shut down
your engine while it is running. This system is designed to per-
form starter interrupt. The fault-proof starter interrupt cannot
shut down an already-running engine – it can only prevent an
engine from starting in the first place.
Any installation which allows this product to shut down a
vehicle's engine when it is running is contrary to the product's
design and intended usage, and Directed hereby expressly dis-
®
claims any liability resulting therefrom.

arming the VRS

To arm the VRS, turn the ignition to the ON position and press
the arm button on the remote transmitter for one second. The
parking lights will flash and the siren will chirp once. This can
be done before driving or while driving the vehicle. Once the
system is armed, it will initiate its triggered sequence (see the
following section) if any door is opened and closed. If you are
forced from the vehicle, the system will trigger as the door is
opened and closed. This is how the system works to combat
intersection carjacking.
