is armed. The siren will chirp once 20 seconds after the last door
has been closed. The system is not actually armed at that point.
The system arms and the doors lock (if connected and
programmed for passive locking) at 30 seconds, but the siren will
not chirp. The early chirp provides you with a 10-second
warning prior to arming.
note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-
protected trunk or hood) is open, the system will not
passively arm (unless forced passive arming is programmed
on.) See Programming Options section of this guide.
Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the
arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:
➤ ➤
Light impacts will trigger the Warning Zone signal. When
triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash
for a few seconds.
➤ ➤ Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered
sequence is between 1-180 seconds of constant siren and
flashing parking lights.
➤ ➤ If a door is opened, the system will immediately start
chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three
seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast.
This progressive response gives you time to disarm the sys-
tem with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door
while the system is armed, while still providing an instant
response (even if the door is immediately closed).
