a continuous blast. This progressive response gives you time to disarm the

system with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door while the

system is armed, while still providing instant response (even if the door is

• Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage response as opening

a door.

• The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle's starter from cranking.
