Arming The System Active; Arming The System Passive; Protection While The System Is - Audiovox Prestige APS-15R Owner's Manual

ARMING THE SYSTEM (CHANNEL 1): ACTIVE
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, and close and lock all doors, hood, and trunk.
2. Press and release the ARMING button on the keychain transmitter. The siren will
"chirp" once, the vehicle's parking lights will flash once, the doors will lock (optional),
and the dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to slowly flash.
WARNING ! Excessive pressure on the transmitter button will damage the internal
components on the circuit board. All that is required is a light push to the button.
NOTE: If the siren "chirped" three times when ARMING, then one of the entry points
(hood ,trunk, doors) has been left opened. Closing the Hood, trunk, or door will correct
the problem, and you DO NOT have to disarm the system to make the correction.
ARMING THE SYSTEM (CHANNEL 1) : PASSIVE
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, and close and lock all doors, hood, and trunk.
2. The dash mounted L.E.D. will begin flashing rapidly, indicating that the system is
automatically (passive) arming. As an added convenience, the automatic passive
arming will not begin until all doors and trunk lid are closed, allowing passengers to
exit the vehicle at their convenience.
3. In 30 seconds, you will hear a single, short "chirp" from the siren, and the vehicle's
parking lamps will flash one time, indicating the system is ARMED. At this time, the
dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash slowly, providing a visual indication that the
system is fully ARMED.
3A. If the optional door lock interface has been installed, the doors WILL NOT
automatically lock when the 30 second arming time expires.
4. If you wish to ARM the system immediately, simply press and release the button on
the keychain transmitter. The siren will "chirp" once, the doors will lock (optional),
and the dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to slowly flash.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED:
1. Opening any door, hood, or trunk will cause the alarm to immediately sound. The siren
will continue to sound for 60 seconds, then stop and automatically re-arm the vehicle.
If the potential thief left a door opened, the siren will sound for four 60 second cycles,
then re-arm and ignore the opened door.
2. Whenever the system is armed, the Red dash mounted L.E.D. indicator will slowly flash.
This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The L.E.D. is a very low current
bulb, and will not cause the vehicle's battery to drain, even when left unattended for
extended periods.
3. If the starter cut relay (optional) is installed, whenever the system is armed, the vehicle's
starter will be bypassed. If a thief should choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can not
be started.
4. Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will flash for the 60 second
alarm cycle, attracting added visual attention to the vehicle.
