Page 5: Important Information
Important information Congratulations on the purchase of your state-of-the-art vehicle security system. This system has been designed to provide years of trouble-free operation. Due to the complexity of this system, it must be installed by an authorized dealer only. Installation of this product by anyone other than an authorized dealer voids the warranty. -
Page 6: Remote Control Functions

Page 11: Passive Arming
ASSIVE ARMING The system can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off and the system detects that you have left the vehicle by opening and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second passive arming countdown, the in-vehicle status LED will flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed. -
