User-Programmable Door Ajar Indication

When you remotely arm the alarm system and a door is ajar (not closed), the
siren will chirp 2 times, then chirp 3 times and the parking lights will flash 3
times. This feature provides audible and visual indication to prevent battery
drain. (See "Programming Table for System Features" on page 15.)
NOTE: If your vehicle has factory delayed lighting, this feature will be
turned OFF.

User-Programmable Siren Duration

Upon activation, the siren can be programmed to run for 30 or 60 seconds
before it will shut off and instantly rearm. ( See the "Programming Table for
System Features" on page 15.)

Alarm State Memory

If your vehicle battery is disconnected and later reconnected, the system will
automatically return to its last state before power was removed, whether it was
armed, disarmed or in a valet mode. For example, if a mechanic disconnects
the battery while the alarm is disarmed or in a valet mode, he won't trigger the
alarm when he reconnects the battery. If a thief removes power while the
alarm is armed, and reconnects it, the alarm will instantly sound, the parking
lights will flash and the starter will be disabled.

Automatic Malfunction Override

In the event of a faulty sensor or alarm input trigger zone, the alarm, when
remotely armed, will alert you by a series of chirps and parking light flashes.
How to Interpret the Chirps and Parking Light Flashes
When you press the remote control buttons, the system will respond with
chirps and flashes of the parking lights to indicate the system status. An
explanation of these chirp/flash acknowledgements is listed below and on the
following page.

1 chirp, 1 flash
