    YOUR "CODE Hopping" TRANSMITTERS The transmitters included with your new security system use the most advanced and secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current auto- motive 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.

  • Page 5: Disarming The System

    a door opened, the alarm will sound for six 30 second cycles, remain armed and ignore that triggered zone. þ Whenever the system is armed, the red dash mounted LED indicator will slowly flash. This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The LED is a very low current bulb, and will not cause the vehicle’s battery to drain, even when left unattended for extended periods.

    o 2 Step Doors Unlock - Optional NOTE: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added, and has been selected for operation when disarming, as an added conve- nience, the system will turn on the headlights when the system is dis- armed.

    chirp 4 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times when disarming the system. Enter the vehicle and observe the red dash mounted LED to identify which zone was triggered. ΠIf the LED is flashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then an intru- sion attempt was made to the shock sensor, or an accessory triggering device that may have been added to the system.
  • Page 8 Programming Your Custom Override Code: Unlike override switches easily found, and defeated, this security system allows the consumer to program a personal override code, offering a higher level of security. To take advantage of this option, programmable feature # 10 must be selected for the Custom Code Option.

  • Page 10: Remote Panic Operation

    NOTE: Whenever the chirps are bypassed, the 4-chirp intrusion indicator and 3 chirp defective zone indicator will always operate. Since these are important warnings to you that something has happened, they cannot be eliminated. REMOTE PANIC OPERATION The Lock or Unlock button on your keychain transmitter also functions as a panic switch for use in emergency situations.
