passive arming The system can be programmed to arm automatically. This is called passive arming. In passive arming mode the system will arm itself 30 seconds after the user exits the vehicle and closes all protected entry points. Passive arming sequence 1.
vehicle protection Following are descriptions of the many ways this system protects the vehicle. Included are descriptions of the types of alarm pages and how to interpret them. D D o o o o r r L L o o c c k k s s ( ( i i f f a a v v a a i i l l a a b b l l e e ) ) - The system will automatically lock the vehicle doors when armed.
warning response description A warning Response consists of an alarm page along with the responses described below. S S h h o o c c k k S S e e n n s s o o r r - Light impacts to the vehicle will flash the vehicle lights and chirp the siren for a few seconds.
Page 24
D D o o o o r r T T r r i i g g g g e e r r - If a door is opened the siren will chirp for three seconds, then the siren will sound and the lights will flash for the programmed duration and report Zone 3.
arming/disarming while driving The alarm system can operate while the vehicle is being driven for added safety when driving through areas of questionable security. The alarm will only respond to the door trigger inputs and the starter kill will be activated. Arming while driving Press for two seconds while the vehicle is running.
remote sensor bypass Remote Sensor Bypass allows you to select which of the system's inputs or sensors will be active and which will be bypassed when the system is armed. (See Table of Zones section of this guide.) Pressing (only in standard configuration) again within five seconds of arming the system will activate the Remote Sensor Bypass feature.
note: Remote Sensor Bypass only applies to a single arm- ing cycle. Once the system is disarmed and then re- armed, all the zones will be active again. disarming Press to disarm the system. The vehicle’s lights will flash twice, the doors will unlock, the siren will chirp twice and the status LED will turn off.
Pressing any button to clear the transceiver page and the first six seconds will stop the trigger response and disarm the system. The six second timer is there for your convenience in case the system was accidentally triggered. disarming without a transceiver (emergency override) If your transceiver is lost or damaged, you can manually disarm your vehicle security system.
important! The override switch can be programmed to respond to 1-5 presses for the disarm function. You must check with the installer to verify the programming for your individual unit. silent arm/disarm To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use silent arm/disarm.
panic mode If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your transceiver. Just press for two seconds, and you will enter panic mode. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash. To stop panic mode press on the transceiver again.
The status LED will light solidly if you are entering override mode, and it will go out if you are exiting override mode. The transceiver will not generate a page notification when entering or exiting override mode using the override switch. To enter or exit override mode using the transceiver: 1.

important! (1) Never remote start your vehicle when the keys are in the ignition, except when performing Override Take-Over, and (2) Never start the vehicle if it is not in either PARK or NEUTRAL. To remote start the vehicle: 1. Simultaneously press one second.

important! It is unsafe to operate a vehicle’s motor in a garage or other closed off area. Breathing the exhaust from the vehicle is hazardous to your health. Never acti- vate the remote engine start in an enclosed space. When you are ready to drive the vehicle: 1.
override take-over The Override Take-Over feature allows the vehicle to remain running after the key has been removed from the ignition. This feature is useful for occasions when you wish to exit and lock the vehicle for short periods of time, but would like to leave the motor running and the climate controls on.
Then press to advance the minute selection or reverse the minute selection. Once the correct time is displayed simply stop pressing any buttons for 10 seconds and the trans- ceiver will automatically exit the clock mode. temperature check mode This system will report the interior temperature of your vehicle with the press of two buttons.
s s a a f f e e t t y y f f e e a a t t u u r r e e s s This system has several important safety features to ensure proper operation of the motor and prevent accidental damage to the engine or its components.
over and under rev protection The system monitors the engine speed and will automatically shut the engine off if the RPMs rise above or fall below the programmed levels. This feature prevents damage to the motor due to fuel delivery system failures or other problems which may cause the engine to race.

Example If the alarm triggers three times within a 60-minute period and each time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, false alarm prevention circuitry will interpret those triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, the false alarm prevention circuitry ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.
d d i i a a g g n n o o s s t t i i c c s s The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It is designed to detect any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system.
gered so many times that the false alarm prevention circuitry has bypassed that zone. In either case, the status LED and transceiver LCD will indicate which zone was triggered (see Table of Zones section). The security system will retain this information in its memory and chirp four or five times each time it is disarmed, until the next time that the ignition is turned on.
table of zones A zone is represented by the LED flashes used by the system to identify a particular type of input. Standard input assignments are listed in the following table. ZONE (Number of DESCRIPTION LED Flashes) Instant trigger - hood pinswitch Instant trigger - a heavier impact detected by the shock sensor Door switch trigger Instant trigger - for optional sensors...

note: Your system stores the last two triggered zones in memory. If your system has been triggered but the LED has been reset by turning on the ignition, your dealer can still recall the last two zones that were triggered. Contact your dealer for details.

ever, if the transceiver has been pressed many times out of range of the vehicle, or the battery has been removed, it may fall out of sync with the control unit and fail to operate the system. To re- sync the transceiver simply press of the vehicle.

p p o o w w e e r r - - u u p p This system will store its current state to non-volatile memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will recall the stored state from memory. This means if the unit is in override mode and the battery is disconnected for any reason, such as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will still be in override mode.
