Pit-Stop Feature - Omega MAX-E Operation Manual

also changes to show the "armed" indication, flashing slowly Red, but
every fourth flash will be Green, indicating that the system is "armed, and
ready for remote starting".
From this point, the vehicle may be remote started provided that it is not
disturbed. When ready to remote start, the activation of remote starting is the same
as previously described: press and release the transmitter's "Arm/Lock" and
"Disarm/Unlock" buttons together.
During the setup procedure, the parking brake must remain set, and the regular
brake pedal must not be pressed when and after the transmitter's "Arm/Lock" and
"Disarm/Unlock" buttons are pressed. After exiting the vehicle, the transmitter's
"Arm/Lock" button only must be used to secure the vehicle. Using any other
transmitter button will produce the appropriate system response, but the remote
starting setup will be voided.
Once the system is fully setup for remote starting, it will start the engine if the
next transmitter operation is pressing the "Arm/Lock" and "Disarm/Unlock"
buttons together. If any other transmitter button is pressed the remote starting setup
will be voided. If the armed alarm should be triggered during this period, the remote
starting setup condition will be voided.

Pit-Stop Feature:

This feature allows you to turn off the ignition switch,
remove your keys, leave the vehicle and lock your doors while leaving the engine
running. To use this feature, have the engine running normally from the ignition
switch, have the gear selector in "park", and your foot off of the brake pedal.
Press the Valet Switch twice; the parking lights will flash once and the siren chirps
5 times; then turn the ignition off. The engine will remain running for the pro-
grammed run time, or it will turn off if another transmitter signal is received, a
safety circuit is violated, or if the Valet Switch is pressed.
Turbo Timer Feature:
This feature is similar to the Pit-Stop operation, but it
must be programmed to operate (feature #36), and it will automatically operate
every time that the ignition key turns off. It is typically recommended that users of
vehicles equipped with turbocharged engines allow the engine to idle a few min-
utes before turning it off. When this feature is programmed on, the MAX-E will
automatically keep the engine running for two minutes as follows:
• With the engine running, hold the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.
When the brake pedal is released, the MAX-E will keep the engine running for
2 minutes, and then automatically turn it off.
After 2 minutes the engine will stop running. The alarm may be armed while the
engine is running. Turbo Timer can be prevented form engaging, if desired, by
turning the engine off first and then engaging the parking brake, or step back on
the brake pedal at any time to turn the running engine off.

#1 SecureCode (for Emergency Override):
SecureCode is a unique patented feature which allows you to custom select the
number of Valet Switch presses in two stages, instead of a single "1 press", which
would be required in order to perform an Emergency Override. If any of the three
anti-carjacking features are utilized, a customized SecureCode would also be
required to turn it off once it is fully activated. The SecureCode operation is
described on page 11.
To custom program a new SecureCode:
Step 1 Follow Steps 1 to 4 in the previous "How to Program Features" instructions;
at Step 4 the Valet Switch will be pressed and released once (the siren chirps
once) to access "feature #1".
Step 2 Within 10 seconds slowly press and release the transmitter's "Arm/Lock"
button the number of times equal to the desired SecureCode for stage 1,
allow the system to respond to each transmitter button press with a siren
chirp before pressing the button again.
Step 3 After entering the first stage by pressing the transmitter "Arm/Lock" button
the desired number of times, and receiving a chirp for each press, wait for
the system, after the final button press, to chirp the siren again the total
number of times that the button was pressed.
Step 4 Continue to configure stage 2 of the SecureCode by now pressing and re-
leasing the "Disarm/Unlock" button the number of times desired for the
stage 2. This should be done in the exact same fashion as the stage 1 entry-
press the "Disarm/Unlock" button, wait for a single chirp before pressing the
button again, and then when final button press is done, wait after the single
chirp for the siren to chirp the total stage 2 number entered.
#2 Last Door Arming:
Default Off
This feature configures the system to automatically Arm itself 30 seconds after
the vehicle's last door is closed.
Programming Last Door Arming: Follow Steps 1 to 4 on page 25; at Step 4
the Valet Switch will be pressed and released two times. The system's response will
be two siren chirps, and the Status Light flashing two times, pausing, then repeating.
Within 10 seconds, press and release the transmitter's "Arm/Lock" button to turn
on Last Door Arming (the siren will chirp once) or the "Disarm/Unlock" button to
turn off Last Door Arming (the siren will chirp twice).
#3 Automatic Rearming:
This feature prevents your system from being disarmed accidentally, configur-
ing the system to automatically rearm itself 90 seconds after it has been Disarmed
by the transmitter. The operation of the Automatic Rearming feature is explained
in more detail on pages 8-9.
