Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle’s starting circuit will be bypassed. If the  
thief should choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can not be started.  
Any strong impact to the vehicle's glass/body will cause the alarm to trigger for the  
full 30 second alarm cycle. A milder impact will cause the siren to emit a few short  
warning tones.  
DISARMING THE SYSTEM  
1. As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Lock / Unlock button on the keychain  
transmitter.  
Red dash mounted LED turns off.  
If passive arming is selected, the LED will start flashing rapidly, indicating  
that the system is re arming automatically. Open any door to suspend the  
automatic arming.  
Parking Lights flash two times.  
If the parking lights flashed three times, then the alarm was triggered in  
your absence. Before turning the key on, examine the LED to identify  
which zone was triggered.  
Siren sounds two chirps.  
If the siren sounds 4 chirps, then the alarm was triggered in your ab-  
sence. Before turning the key on, examine the LED and refer to the INTRU-  
SION WARNING SIGNALS section of this manual to identify which zone  
was triggered.  
If the siren did not sound when disarming, then the chirps have been  
turned off, and you should refer to the section titled “ ELIMINATING THE  
ARM / DISARM CHIRPS “ in this manual.  
Doors Unlock - Optional  
NOTE : Anytime the system is disarmed, the unit will rearm automatically unless a door is  
opened. This will occur regardless of the arming method selected.  
SILENT DISARMING  
1. As you approach the vehicle, press both buttons on the keychain transmitter.  
Red dash mounted LED turns off.  
If passive arming was selected during the installation, then the LED will  
start flashing rapidly, indicating that the system is re arming automatically.  
Open any door to suspend the automatic arming.  
Parking Lights flash two times.  
If the parking lights flashed three times, then the alarm was triggered in  
your absence. Before turning the key on, examine the LED to identify  
which zone was triggered.  
Siren will not sound.  
If the siren sounds 4 chirps, then the alarm was triggered in your  
absence. Before turning the key on, examine the LED and refer to the  
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS section of this manual to identify which  
zone was triggered.  
Doors Unlock - Optional  
NOTE: Must be selected on during installation.  
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS  
This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away from the  
vehicle. If an intrusion attempt has occurred, the siren will chirp 4 times and the parking lights  
will flash 3 times when disarming the system. Enter the vehicle, and observe the red  
dash- mounted LED to identify which zone was triggered.  
If the LED is flashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then the shock sensor was  
activated in your absence.

If the LED is flashing two times...pause...two times...pause...etc., then an intrusion attempt was  
made to a hood or trunk pin switch that was added to the system.  
If the LED is flashing three times...pause...three times...pause...etc., then an intrusion attempt  
was made through one of the vehicle’s doors.  
These intrusion warning indicators are stored in the system’s memory, and will only be erased  
when the ignition key is turned on.  
Valet Mode:  
The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating the need to  
hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the system is in valet  
mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however the remote panic feature and remote door  
locks will remain operational. To use the valet mode, the system must first be disarmed either  
by using your keychain transmitter, or by operating the manual override sequence.  
1. From the disarmed condition, turn the ignition key to the on position.  
2. Press and hold the valet pushbutton switch until the dash mounted LED, (Light  
Emitting Diode) turns on. The LED will remain on as long as the system is in valet  
mode.  
3. To return to normal operation, turn the ignition switch on, then.  
press and hold the pushbutton switch until the LED turns off.  
NOTE : Always remember to return the system to the NON VALET mode, after servicing,  
to ensure that the vehicle remains protected at all times.  
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:  
Using The Valet / Manual Override Switch:  
Your Security System can be disarmed without the use of the keychain transmitter. This is  
necessary, since you will need the ability to operate your vehicle if the transmitter is lost or its  
battery fails.  
To override the system:  
1. Open the vehicle door. The alarm will sound.  
2. Turn the ignition key to the on position.  
3. Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet push button switch.  
The alarm system will stop sounding and enter the disarmed mode. You can now start and  
operate the vehicle normally.  
Typically this override mode is used only if the transmitter has become inoperative. You may  
elect to enter the VALET mode until repair or replacement of the transmitter, after which,  
returning the system to the full operation mode is necessary. To do so, see the heading  
VALET SWITCH.  
ELIMINATING THE NORMAL ARM / DISARM CHIRPS  
As explained earlier in the manual, you can eliminate the chirps selectively any time you arm or  
disarm the system simply by pressing both transmitter buttons. If you find the normal arming and  
disarming chirps annoying, they can be turned off permanently, eliminating the need to press  
both buttons. To turn chirps off permanently, selectable features # 6 must be turned off in the  
feature programming section of the installation manual. Refer to this manual or consult with your  
installation technician to have this feature turned off.  
NOTE: Whenever the chirps are bypassed, the 4 chirp intrusion indicator and 3 chirp defec-  
tive zone indicator will always operate. Since these are important warnings to you  
that something has happened, they cannot be eliminated.  
Arming Without Shock:  
This system has the ability to allow the sensor to be defeated, from the transmitter, entirely for  
one arming cycle. To eliminate the sensor for one arming cycle:  
Press the lock/unlock button of the transmitter, siren chirps once, and immediately press the  
lock/unlock button a second time, siren chirps one long chirp. The system is armed but the  
shock sensor is bypassed for one arming cycle.

REMOTE PANIC OPERATION  
The Lock/Arm / Unlock/Disarm button on your keychain transmitter also functions as a panic  
switch for use in emergency situations. To use remote panic,  
1. Press and hold this button on the keychain transmitter for 3 or more seconds. The  
alarm will immediately sound.  
2. To stop the alarm, press and hold the button on the transmitter again for 3 seconds.  
If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically stop after 30 seconds.  
NOTE: Pressing the Trunk button of the transmitter while in the panic mode will cause  
the siren to immediately stop sounding.

optional accessories. Some of the more common uses for this channel are;
