  • Page 8: System Maintenance

    System Maintenance The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote control is powered by a miniature 12V battery, type GP23A, that will last approximately one year under normal use. When the battery weak- ens, operating range will be reduced and the LED on the remote will dim.
  • Page 9: Transmitter Functions

    Transmitter Functions The receiver uses a computer-based Learn Routine to learn the transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any transmit- ter button to any receiver function. The transmitter initially comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also be cus- tomized by an authorized dealer.
  • Page 10: Expanded Configuration

    Expanded Configuration Your system has an expanded configuration that can be utilized when upgrading to the four-button remote. In the expanded con- figuration, your system will operate similarly to many factory key- less entry systems that use separate remote transmitter buttons for the arm, disarm, panic and auxiliary output functions.
  • Page 11 your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming, and see the status LED flashing in groups, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification. The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called passive arming).
  • Page 12: Multi-Level Security Arming

    If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chirp- ing 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 system 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).
  • Page 13: Arming While Driving

    Pressing the arm button a second time within five seconds: The siren chirps twice followed by a long chirp. Zone Two is now bypassed. Pressing the arm button a third time within five seconds: The siren chirps three times followed by a long chirp. Zone Four is now bypassed.
  • Page 14: Disarming

    Disarming To disarm the system, press . You will hear two chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power locks are connected to the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps either four or five times when disarming, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide.
  • Page 15: Silent Mode

    without a transmitter, you must have the vehicle’s ignition key and know where the Valet ® switch is located. Be sure to check with the installer for the location of the Valet switch. To disarm the security system, turn the ignition to the "on" position.
  • Page 16: Panic Mode

    Panic Mode If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your transmitter! Just press for 1.5 seconds, and you will enter Panic Mode. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for the pro- grammed siren duration.
  • Page 17: Remote Valet

    Remote Valet ® The operations described in this section refer to transmitter but- tons. Remember, the buttons used in all the instructions in this guide correspond to a Standard Configuration transmitter. This may not be how your transmitter is set up. Open any vehicle door.
  • Page 18: Diagnostics

    If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the system while it is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures that a sensor that continually triggers will remain bypassed. Doors are covered by NPC differently: If the alarm is triggered by an open door for three full cycles, the doors will be bypassed until the trigger ceases.
  • Page 19: Arming Diagnostics

    Arming Diagnostics If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass Notification. NOTE: Bypass Notification will not occur when using Silent Mode ™...

  • Page 21: Code-Hopping

    Code Hopping The receiver and transmitters each use a mathematical formula called an algorithm to change their code each time the transmit- ter is used. This technology has been developed to increase the security of the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes should be.
  • Page 22: Owner Recognition

    Owner Recognition Owner Recognition is a feature available exclusively from DEI ® Using a DEI ® Bitwriter, hand-held programming tool, your dealer can program many of the system settings. The programmer makes it possible to program different settings for each transmitter that is used with the system.
  • Page 23: Power Saver Mode

    Power Saver Mode Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while armed or in Valet Mode, after a period of time in which no opera- tion has been performed. This lowers the current draw on the vehi- cle's battery and prevents the system from draining the battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions: Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has been armed for 24 hours, the LED will flash at half its normal...
  • Page 24: Programming Options

    Programming Options Programming options control what your system does during nor- mal operation, and require few or no additional parts. However, some may require additional installation labor. The following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in Bold: Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic arming 30-seconds after the last door has been closed).
  • Page 25 Panic mode enabled/disabled with the ignition on: Some states have laws against siren capability in a moving vehicle. Forced passive arming on or off: If your system is programmed for passive arming and the forced passive arming feature has been programmed on, the system will passively arm after one hour, even if a protected entry has been left open.
  • Page 26 Full trigger response 30 or 60 seconds: This determines how long the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws regulating how long a security system can sound before it is considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the secu- rity system with the DEI Bitwriter or a personal computer and the TechSoft Programmer, the full triggered response can be programmed for any duration ranging from 1 to 180 seconds.
  • Page 27: Installation Options

    Installation Options The system has many options that may require extra parts and labor. Some of the possibilities are listed here. Progressive unlocking: In most cars with electric power door locks, the system can be configured so that when the system is disarmed, only the driver’s door unlocks.
  • Page 28: Vehicle Recovery System

    Vehicle Recovery ® System (VRS The optional VRS feature is designed to ensure that any unautho- rized user of your vehicle (even if using your keys and remote con- trol) will not be able to permanently separate you from your vehicle. The VRS cannot prevent a carjacking attempt, however, it does en- sure that if your vehicle is taken by an unauthorized user, it will be disabled (after several progressive warnings) as safely as possible.
  • Page 29: Arming The Vrs

    Arming the VRS ® To arm the VRS ® , turn the ignition to the ON position and press the arm button on the remote transmitter for one second. The parking lights will flash and the siren will chirp once. This can be done before driving or while driving the vehicle.
  • Page 30: Disarming The Vrs

    From this point on, when the ignition key is turned off, the VRS ® will immediately turn on the starter kill. This will prevent the vehicle from being restarted, thus immobilizing it at that spot. Three minutes after the constant siren output begins, the flashing parking lights and the siren will stop.
  • Page 31 If the system has entered the triggered sequence (siren has begun chirping), pressing the disarm button of the transmitter will not disarm VRS. To disarm the VRS during a VRS trigger sequence: 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Press the Valet ®...
