Cancelling The System; Indicator Light; Testing The System - Toyota 1996 Avalon Owner's Manual

Reactivating the alarm
Once set, the system automatically resets
the alarm each time all the doors, trunk
and hood are closed after the alarm stops.
The alarm will be activated again under
the following conditions:
S If any of the doors, trunk or hood is
opened
S If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected
Stopping the alarm
Turn the ignition key from the "LOCK" to
"ACC" position. The alarm will be stopped
with the starter circuit kept on. Stopping
the alarm in this manner will keep the
alarm from being reactivated when any of
the doors, trunk or hood is opened.
Interrupting the setting
With the system set, the trunk can be
opened with the key or wireless remote
control transmitter without setting off the
system. While the truck is open, the set-
ting is interrupted and the doors and hood
may be opened in addition. However,
when the battery terminal is reconnected,
the system is activated.
Close and lock the doors and hood, and
the system will automatically be reset af-
ter two seconds when the trunk is closed
with the key removed.

CANCELLING THE SYSTEM

Unlock either front door with the key or
wireless remote control transmitter. This
cancels the system completely and the
starter circuit cut will be cancelled at once.

INDICATOR LIGHT

The indicator light gives the following
three indications.
FLASHING—The system is set. You
need the key or wireless remote control
transmitter to open the doors, trunk and
hood.
ON—The system will automatically be set
when the time comes. The doors, trunk
and hood may be opened without a key or
wireless remote control transmitter.
OFF—The system is inactive. You may
open any door, trunk and hood.

TESTING THE SYSTEM

1. Open all the windows
2. Set the system as described above.
The doors should be locked with the key
or wireless remote control transmitter. Be
sure to wait until the indicator light starts
flashing.
3. Unlock any door from the inside. The
system should activate the alarm.
4. Cancel the system by unlocking any of
the doors with the key or wireless remote
control transmitter.
5. Repeat this operation for the other
doors, trunk and hood. When testing on
the hood, also check that the system is ac-
tivated when the battery terminal is dis-
connected and then reconnected.
If the system does not work properly, have
it checked by your Toyota dealer.
