Page 21: Programmable Remote Control Features
➜ programmable remote control features To enter programming mode Press the Program button on the back of the remote or hold the four remote control buttons on the front of the remote simultane- ously until one long beep is heard. Programming Mode has now been entered.

Page 23 partially enclosed area without ventilation (such as a garage). When parking in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced, the remote start system must be disabled using the installed toggle switch. It is the user's sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from children all remote control transmitters to assure that the system does not unintentionally remote start the vehicle.
Page 24 ➤ After the remote start module has been installed, contact your authorized dealer to have him or her test the remote start module by performing the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts when performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit test, the remote start unit has not been properly installed.
Page 25: Active Arming
➜ active arming You can arm the system by pressing of your transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound, or chirp, and see the parking lights flash once. If the power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will also lock. While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately once per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting your vehicle.
Page 26 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 pro- grammed on. See Programming Options section.) Addi- tionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
Page 27: Multi-Level Security Arming
➜ multi-level security arming Multi-Level Security Arming 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 Multi- Level Security feature.
Page 28: Arming While Driving
➜ arming while driving Your security system can be armed while driving the vehicle! Simply press on the transmitter for two seconds 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.

Page 31: Valet Mode
➜ valet mode You can prevent your security system from automatically arming and triggering by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when ® washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the ® security system will not arm, even with the remote transmitter, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will continue to work normally.
