  • Page 3: About Your New Crime Guard System

    ABOUT YOUR NEW CRIME GUARD SYSTEM Congratulations on your purchase of a new Crime Guard security and remote starting system. Crime Guard systems combine the benefits of easy- to-use convenience with “no nonsense” protection of person and property. Please review this guide to become familiar with your Crime Guard vehicle security and remote starting system.
  • Page 4: Using Your Crime Guard System

    USING YOUR CRIME GUARD SYSTEM Your new Crime Guard security system is designed to deter theft of both your vehicle and its contents. Arming the system turns on the protection operation, disables the vehicle’s starter and locks the doors provided an interface is installed.
  • Page 5: Arming Bypass

    Upon Arming: • The siren will chirp twice (or four times if a zone is bypassed) unless the silent arming procedure is followed. • The parking lights will flash twice (or four times if a zone is bypassed). • The doors will lock.* •...
  • Page 6 The Last Door Arming feature may be coupled, if desired, with the auto- matic locking of the vehicle’s doors when the system arms itself.* The Last Door Arming process: 1- When the vehicle’s ignition has been turned off, the system waits until a door is opened.
  • Page 7: System Armed And Activated

    SYSTEM ARMED & ACTIVATED While the system is in the Armed state: • The Status Indicator Light will be flashing slowly Red to confirm that the system is armed, and also serve as a visual deterrent. • The starter interrupt circuit is engaged. •...

  • Page 9: Activation Alert

    Safety Disarm will also cancel Automatic Rearming (if it is programmed to operate). This feature is also very useful when the vehicle is exposed to environmental conditions, such as storms, trains or heavy vehicles, which may cause false activations. Safety Disarm is a temporary “one time” operation which occurs only while the system is activated.
  • Page 10: Driver's Door Priority Unlocking

    Automatic Rearming Notes - Turning the vehicle’s ignition on cancels Automatic Rearming. - Opening a door will suspend the 90 second countdown. - All protected zones must remain non-violated during the 90 second Automatic Rearming period. For example, if a vehicle door is opened during the 90 second period, the countdown will stop.
  • Page 11: Disarming By Emergency Override

    Notes There is no time limitation for the second pressing of the “Disarm/Un- lock” button. Once the button is pressed and released to Disarm the system, every subsequent pressing of the “Disarm/Unlock” button will produce the “unlock all doors” output, the single siren chirp and parking and dome light illumination period.

  • Page 13: Other Transmitter Operations

    OTHER TRANSMITTER OPERATIONS The previous sections have described the basic everyday operations of your Crime Guard system. The transmitter is also capable of operating several other optional functions which are explained in this section. Two auxiliary outputs are available for use (the primary output Arms and Disarms the system).
  • Page 14: Auxiliary Output #2 / Auxiliary Output #3 Glass Breakage And Dual-Zone Infrasonic Impact Sensor

    Auxiliary Output Notes - Auxiliary Output #2 may be activated anytime, provided the vehicle’s ignition is off. While the ignition is on, the Auxiliary Output #2 can be operated as long as a vehicle door is open; this prevents the output from being accidentally activated while driving.

  • Page 17 Certain conditions will prevent the engine from remotely starting, or if remotely started already, will stop the running engine. These conditions are: 1) A pressed brake pedal. 2) The gear selector not being in the “park” or “neutral” position. 3) An open hood. An open door will not prevent the system from starting the engine;...
  • Page 18: Easy Valet & Starting Valet Modes

    EASY VALET & STARTING VALET MODES The Valet Switch is in the Status Indicator Light/Valet Switch Assembly. The installer has the option of utilizing an additional, separate Valet Switch should a hidden Valet Switch location be desired. Please ensure that you and others who use your vehicle are aware of the location of the Valet Switch.
  • Page 19 - To remind the user that the system is in Easy Valet mode, the siren will chirp once every time the vehicle’s ignition is turned off. To Enter Starting Valet Mode: With the system disarmed, and depressing the brake pedal, Press & Hold the Valet Switch for 2 seconds.
  • Page 20: Status Indicator Light

    STATUS INDICATOR LIGHT The Status Indicator Light visually confirms the status of the system and provides a high level of visual deterrence. Two colors are shown- Red for security operations, and Green for remote starting operations. Combinations of both colors are seen when the two operations are occurring together. The Status Indicator Light, which shares a housing assembly with the Valet Switch, is normally mounted in a location where it can be easily seen by the driver, as well as from outside the vehicle.

  • Page 22: Vehicle Recovery

    VEHICLE RECOVERY Your system is equipped with three separately programmable Vehicle Recovery protection features, which also provide Anti-Carjacking protection. The Vehicle Recovery operation may be selectively activated by the ignition, by an open door, or by the transmitter. How It Works Once the Vehicle Recovery process has begun, the user has 53 seconds to cancel the process by pressing the Valet Switch once.
  • Page 23: Automatic Transmitter Verification

    A UTOMATIC T RANSMITTER V ERIFICATION The patented ATV technology, which is standard on all Crime Guard models, is the only defense against an inherent weakness found in any remote-controlled vehicle security system. In all such systems, allowance is made for multiple transmitters to operate the system. In a matter of seconds, anyone familiar with the programming procedure can easily code their own unauthorized transmitter into the system.
  • Page 24: Programming The 850I

    PROGRAMMING THE 850i The Crime Guard 850i is a sophisticated, yet flexible security and convenience system. Many of its operations may be configured as the user desires- “Programming Mode” allows you to configure 30 operational features to suit your wants and needs. Your vehicle ignition key and the Valet Switch are used to enter the Programming Mode, as described by the three steps listed below.
  • Page 25 A convenient feature programming checklist is on pages 46-47, which greatly simplifies the feature programming process. The professional installer may take advantage of the optional Omega FPM-1 Features Programming Module. The FPM-1 can be used to program all features in a matter of moments.
