Your Remote Start Alarm System has many features and available options some of which are selected at time of installation. For your reference, the list on page 9 of this manual shows what features and options have been installed. Consult your installing dealer for options that may have been installed and are not listed.

YOUR “ CODE HOPPING “ TRANSMITTERS:

The transmitters included with your new remote start system use the most advanced and secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current automotive remote system. Some of today’s sophisticated auto thieves use a device known as a code grabber, which will receive and store the signal from your keychain transmitter, and re-transmit at a later time to disarm your system.

Your code hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then re-transmits your signal, the alarm system will not respond.

If your transmitter button is pressed more than fifty times while it is out of range of the vehicle (children playing with your keys), the transmitter will not operate when you return to the vehicle, and will need to be re-aligned to the receiver. To do this, simply press the Lock/ Unlock button two times within a one second time period. The system will now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed.

ARMING THE SYSTEM - ACTIVE:

1.Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.

2.Press and release the Arm button of your key chain transmitter one time.

The parking lights will flash once, the siren will chirp once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed. If you have the optional door lock/ unlock circuit installed, the doors will lock.

NOTE: If the siren/horn sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or hood lid ajar. Simply close the opened entry point to provide full protection. If the siren "chirped" three times, sometime after arming, the exclusive delayed dome light learn circuit has been programmed and the system detected a open entry point after the learned delay expired. Again, closing the hood, trunk, or doors will correct the problem and you do not need to disarm the system to make the correction. If the siren/horn did not sound when arming, then the chirps have been turned off and you should refer to the section titled "ELIMINATING THE ARM/DISARM CHIRPS" in this manual.

SILENT ARMING - ACTIVE:

1.Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.

2.Press and hold the Arm button of your key chain transmitter for two seconds.

The parking lights will flash once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed. The siren will not chirp. If you have the optional door lock/ unlock circuit installed, the doors will lock.

NOTE: If the siren/horn sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or hood lid ajar. Simply close the opened entry point to provide full protection. If the siren "chirped" three times, sometime after arming, the exclusive delayed dome light learn circuit has been programmed and the system detected a open entry point after the learned delay expired. Again, closing the hood, trunk, or doors will correct the problem and you do not need to disarm the system to make the correction. If the siren/horn did not sound when arming, then the chirps have been turned off and you should refer to the section titled "ELIMINATING THE ARM/DISARM CHIRPS" in this manual.
