  • Page 17: Passive Arming

    If after 2-seconds the remote beeps once and the Orange and Red LEDs flash 3-times, the system has detected an active sensor that should be checked. If after 2-seconds the remote beeps once, the Orange LED flashes 6-times and the Red LED lights for 3-seconds, the system has detected an open door, hood or trunk and has been bypassed.
  • Page 18 When armed your vehicle is protected as follows: ➤ Light impacts trigger the Warn Away signal. When triggered, ® the siren chirps and the parking lights flash for a few seconds. ➤ Heavy impacts trip a Triggered Sequence. The sequence consists of the siren sounding continuously and the parking lights flashing for a pre-programmed period, which can range in duration from 1 to 180 seconds.
  • Page 19: Multi-Level Security Arming

    ➜ multi-level security arming Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the security system's inputs or sensors will be active and which will be bypassed at the time that the system is armed. (See the Table of Zones section of this guide.) Pressing again within five seconds of arming the security system will activate the Multi- Level Security Arming feature.
  • Page 20: Disarming

    note: Multi-Level Security Arming only applies to a sin- gle arming cycle. Once the system is disarmed and then re-armed, all the zones will be active again. After each press of the to reach the next level of security, the remote will emit normal arm notification (1 beep and 3 flashes of the Orange LED).
  • Page 21: Disarming Without A Transmitter

    ➜ disarming without a transmitter This feature allows you to disarm the security system without the remote transmitter should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order to disarm the system without a remote transmitter, you must have the vehicle’s ignition key and know where the Valet button is located.

    ➜ dome light control security only The dome light activates for 30-seconds after the system is disarmed. Ignition controlled The dome light activates for 30-seconds after the ignition is turned On. door controlled The dome light activates for 30-seconds after the system sees a door has closed.
  • Page 23: Panic Mode

    The 2-way remote responds with the normal arm/disarm notifi- cations in silent mode. (If the remote has beeps programmed On, the remote will beep.) ➜ panic mode note: On both remotes the panic button is the same color. 2-way remote If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your 2-way remote.
  • Page 24: Valet Mode

    Mode at any time, press on the remote trans- mitter again. ➜ valet mode You can prevent your security system from automatically arming and triggering by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the security system will not arm, even with the remote transmitter, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will continue to work normally.

    if your vehicle has interior light exit delay, and you arm the system before the interior light goes out, you may hear Bypass Notification chirps. Once the light shuts off, however, the doors are monitored normally. ➜ disarming diagnostics Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence.
