1.As you approach the vehicle, press and hold the disarm button of your key chain transmitter for two seconds.

The parking lights will flash twice, and the dash mounted LED will turn off confirming that the system is disarmed. The siren will not chirp. If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors will unlock. If you have the optional entry illumination circuit installed, the interior light will turn on for 30 seconds or until the ignition key is switched on.

NOTE: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted LED will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any door will suspend the automatic arming.

If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates that the alarm system had been triggered in your absence. Before turning on the ignition key, examine the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies the triggered zone. For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS found later in this manual. NOTE: If the optional 2 step door unlock circuit is installed, when the unlock transmitter button

is activated, the drivers door only will unlock, pressing the unlock button a second time will cause all doors to unlock. If your transmitter has a sperate lock unlock buttons, pressing the unlock button anytime after the first unlock command will cause all the vehicle doors to unlock.

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 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.

INTRUSION WARNING SIGNAL

This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away from the vehicle. Upon disarm, the siren will chirp 4 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times. Enter the vehicle and before turning on the ignition switch, observe the LED flash pattern. If the LED flashes one time...pause, one time...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made by impact or a strong vibration that the shock sensor detected. Check the vehicle for possible damage to the glass or body panels.

If the LED flashes two times...pause, two times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to open the hood, trunk, or by an accessory triggering device. Check the vehicle for indications of forced entry to these openings.

If the LED flashes three times...pause, three times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was made to the vehicle doors. Check all doors for indications of forced entry.

NOTE: The LED intrusion warning indications are stored in the system's memory and will be erased when the ignition switch 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. To use the valet mode, the system must first be disarmed either by using your keychain transmitter, or by activating your personalized manual override code.
