Arming The System-Active - Prestige APS-787E Owner's Manual

YOUR "SPREAD SPECTRUM" TRANSMITTERS
The transmitters included with your new security system use the most advanced and
secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current automotive
security system. Some of today's sophisticated auto thieves use a device known as
a code grabber, which will receive and store the signal from your keychain transmitter
and re-transmit at a later time to disarm your system.
Your Spread Spectrum transmitters will shift frequencies making it impossible for a
thief to grab and rebroadcast your code.
If your transmitter button is pressed more than fifty times while it is out of range of
the vehicle (children playing with your keys), the transmitter will not operate when
you return to the vehicle, and will need to be re-aligned to the receiver. To do this,
simply press button 1, (lock), two times within a one second time period. The system
will now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed.
NOTE: This system is custom configurable and can be set up to op-
erate with a number of options controlled from any transmitter button
or button combination. For reference, we will describe operation as-
suming that your system is programmed for separate lock and unlock
buttons. Also reference will be made to the icons as shown on the
buttons of the transmitter to the left.

NOTE: Your system has the option of using a siren, the vehicle horn,
PRESTIGE
or both for the sounding device. Where the siren is referenced below,
the horn or both may in fact chirp, or beep.
ARMING THE SYSTEM - ACTIVE
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood lid and trunk lid.
2. Press and release Lock/Arm button on the keychain transmitter.
 The dash mounted LED begins to flash slowly.
 Parking Lights flash one time.
 Siren sounds one chirp.
If the siren/horn sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or hood
lid ajar. Simply close the opened entry point to provide full protection. If the
siren "chirped" three times, sometime after arming, the exclusive delayed
dome light learn circuit has been programmed and the system detected a
open entry point after the learned delay expired. Again, closing the hood,
trunk, or doors will correct the problem and you do not need to disarm
the system to make the correction. If the siren/horn did not sound when
arming, then the chirps have been turned off and you should refer to the
section titled "ELIMINATING THE ARM/DISARM CHIRPS" in this manual.
 Doors Lock - Optional
NOTE: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added, and has been
selected for operation when arming, as an added convenience, the system
will turn on the headlights when the system is armed.
