Feature #1 | SecureCode |
(Factory Default Setting: 1 Press)
“SecureCode” allows the user to customize the number of Valet Switch presses which are required to successfully perform an Emergency Override. The basic Emergency Override procedure is described on page 14. Instead of a single “1 press” of the Valet Switch which would be required in order to perform an Emergency Override, two stages of Valet Switch presses must be made. In each of the two stages, the Valet Switch will need to be pressed 1 through 9 times, as programmed by the user.
Once the system is disarmed, if Alarm Valet Mode is desired, without pressing the brake pedal just press and hold the Valet Switch for 2 seconds to place the system into Alarm Valet Mode (solid Red Status Light). Should a mistake be made entering the SecureCode, after a failed attempt to achieve SecureCode, the ignition switch must be turned off, then on again before another attempt is made. Should two failed SecureCode attempts be made, the system will ignore any further presses of the Valet Switch for two minutes.
In addition to Emergency Override, if any of the three
How to custom program a new SecureCode:
Step 1 Follow Steps 1 to 4 in the previous “How to Program Features” instruc- tions; at Step 4 the Valet Switch will be pressed and released once (the siren chirps once) to access “feature #1”.
Step 2 Within 10 seconds slowly press and release the transmitter’s “Arm/Lock” button the number of times (1 through 9 ) equal to the desired SecureCode for stage 1, allow the system to respond to each transmitter button press with a siren chirp before pressing the button again.
Step 3 After entering the first stage by pressing the transmitter “Arm/Lock” button the desired number of times, and receiving a chirp for each press, wait for the system, after the final button press, to chirp the siren again the total number of times that the button was pressed.
Step 4 Configure stage 2 of the SecureCode by now pressing and releasing the “Disarm/Unlock” button the number of times desired for the stage 2 (1 through 9 presses). This should be done in the exact same fashion as the stage 1 entry- press the “Disarm/Unlock” button, wait for a single chirp before pressing the button again, and then when final button press is done, wait after the single chirp for the siren to chirp the total number entered.
Step 5 Wait 10 seconds, and allow the system to time out of features program- ming mode (as indicated by a short sounding of the siren).

To remote start the vehicle:
1- Press and release together the transmitter or Echo transceiver’s “Arm/Lock” and “Disarm/Unlock” buttons. The system will respond first by rapidly flashing the Status Light Green, then by turning on the ignition and flashing the parking lights once.
2- The starter will engage until the engine runs; 10 seconds later the parking lights will illuminate steady during the period that the engine is running from being remotely started. (having them flash instead is an option).
If the Echo transceiver is used to activate remote engine starting feature, it will further sequence status indications beyond what the system does in the vehicle. When the Echo is used for remote starting:
•It will play a musical melody, and the “start” icon, puffs of smoke, appear behind the vehicle (5 different musical melodies are programmable).
•Once the engine has started, when the vehicle’s parking lights come back on the “start: icon’s puffs of smoke will change to appearing sequentially.
•When the engine stops running, whether by safety condition or transceiver command, a different musical melody is played, and the “start” icon disap- pears. If a safety circuit stops the engine, the “crossed out key” icon will momentarily appear (but not if the transceiver’s command stops the engine).
•If a safety circuit prevents the starting attempt, the “engine stopped” melody will play, and the “crossed out key” icon will appear.
Once the engine has been remotely started, it will run for 10 minutes (an optional 20 minute setting may be programmed). To remotely stop the engine again press and release together the “Arm/Lock” and “Disarm/Unlock” buttons.
The system will stop the engine, and extinguish the parking lights.
•When leaving the vehicle before remote starting, remember to set the climate controls to the desired heating or air conditioning settings.
