30 seconds. If you re-open any door, the Security Systems LED will stop
flashing. It will begin flashing again once the vehicles door is closed.
3. After the 30 second timer has elapsed, the Security System will
automatically "ARM". The siren will chirp (1) time and the vehicles parking
lights will flash (1) time.
Note: If the vehicles door locks have been interfaced to the Security System,
the vehicles doors will automatically lock after the passive arming cycle
has been completed. If this feature is not desired, see your local
dealer and have the Security System re-programmed to eliminate
passive door locking.
