NOTE: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added and has been selected for operation when disarming, as an added conve- nience, the system will turn on the headlights when the system is dis- armed.

WHILE THE SYSTEM IS SOUNDING

If during a triggered state, you wish to shut off the siren without disarming your security system, simply press and release any transmitter button other than the Unlock/Disarm button. This action will turn off the siren yet leave the vehicle fully armed and protected. This feature is particularly useful if you are aware of children playing near your vehicle that may accidently trigger your security system. In this case you can cancel the siren sounding without disarming your alarm.

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.

nIf the LED is flashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to the shock sensor, or an accessory trigger- ing device that may have been added to the system.

oIf 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 or to a light activated entry point if the alarm was installed using the voltage sensing feature.

pIf 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 SWITCH

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. In addition, the parking lights will flash to indicate locking and unlocking. To use the valet mode, the system must first be disarmed either by using your keychain transmit- ter or by activating your personalized manual override code.
