The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically

(called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive

arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition

is turned off and the system "sees" you leave the vehicle by

opening and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-

second passive-arming countdown, the LED status indicator will

flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed. The siren

will chirp once 20 seconds after the last door has been closed.

The system is not actually armed at that point. The system arms

and the doors lock (if connected and programmed for passive

locking) at 30 seconds, but the siren will not chirp. The early

chirp provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming.

note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-

protected trunk or hood) is open, the system will not

passively arm (unless forced passive arming is programmed

on.) See Programming Options section of this guide.

Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the

arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.

When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:

➤ ➤

Light impacts will trigger the Warning Zone signal. When

triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash

for a few seconds.

➤ ➤

Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered

sequence is between 1-180 seconds of constant siren and

flashing parking lights.

➤ ➤

If a vehicle door is opened, the security system will immedi-

ately start chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights.
