FCC/ID Notice This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interfer- ence received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Arming the security system protects your vehicle in the following ways: Light impacts trigger a Warn Away siren to chirp and the parking lights to flash for a few seconds. Heavy impacts trip a triggered sequence, causing the siren to sound continuously and the parking lights to flash for either a 30 or 60-second period.
Disarming Without a Transmitter If your transmitter is lost or damaged, you can manually disarm your security system. To disarm using the Valet switch: To disarm the security system without a transmitter, you must have the ignition key and know where the Valet switch is located. Be sure to check with your installer at the time of installation for both the location and the preset response (1-5 presses) of the Valet switch.
NOTE: This feature is only available if your system has been programmed with the Level I security setting. (See Glossary section of this manual for Level I security description.) Consult with your installer to determine if your vehicle has been programmed for Level I security. To disarm the security system with the vehicle’s door key: Insert the key into one of the door key cylinders.
Trunk Access While the System Is Armed Trunk access with your transmitter: While the system is armed, you can open the trunk by pressing the trunk release button on your transmitter without triggering the alarm. Only the trunk sensors are bypassed while the rest of the security system remains armed.
To enter or exit Valet Mode: 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Turn the ignition off. 3. Press and release the Valet switch within 10 seconds. The status LED will light steadily if you are entering Valet Mode and will turn off if you are exiting Valet Mode. Remote Valet You can also activate Valet Mode with your transmitter: 1.
Here's how NPC works: If the alarm is triggered by the same sensor or switch three times within a 60 minute period, your system inter- prets this pattern of triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, your system ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.
Arming Diagnostics If the system is armed at the same time that an input is active (door opening, sensor triggering, etc.), you will hear one chirp to indicate arming and a second chirp to indicate Bypass Notification. A Bypass Notification chirp means that the system ignores the input that was active when the system was armed, until that input ceases.
Table of Zones A zone is represented by the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify a particular type of input. Standard input assignments are listed in the following table, along with spaces to write in any optional sensors or switches that have been installed. ZONE (Number of DESCRIPTION...

custom configured, however, pressing the lock button twice will activate this optional accessory. NOTE: The installation of an optional accessory will require additional parts and labor and will also eliminate the Remote Panic Mode feature. Level I or Level II Security: Level I security allows for access to the system’s convenience features in the event that the transmitters are lost, stolen or damaged.
Over-rev protection, open-hood lockout, brake-pedal shutoff, and automatic timer shutoff are all included. (Only for automatic-trans- mission, fuel-injected gasoline vehicles.)

Level II Security: A high security setting that protects your vehi- cle at the door and trunk key cylinders. With Level II security, the system cannot be disarmed at the door key cylinder with a vehi- cle key. Also, the trunk cannot be accessed with the vehicle key while the system is armed, without triggering the alarm.

Warn Away Response: Light impacts to the vehicle generate the Warn Away Response, which consists of several seconds of siren chirps and flashing parking lights. Zone: A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognize as unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular zone.
QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE: To arm using your remote To arm the system, lock the vehicle doors with your factory keyless entry transmitter. When the system arms, you will hear one chirp and the parking lights will flash once. To disarm using your remote To disarm the system, unlock the doors using your factory keyless entry transmitter.
