Model APS-30

KEY ACTIVATED PASSIVE ALARM

OWNER’S MANUAL

Congratulations on your purchase of the APS-30 automotive Passive Alarm System. The

APS-30 is a state - of - the - art auto security system that is designed to automatically arm and

disarm when your ignition key is turned on and off. Taking a few moments to read this manual

will help to ensure that your vehicle is protected at all times.

ARMING THE SYSTEM :

1. Turn the ignition key off, exit the vehicle, and close and lock all doors.

2. The dash mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash rapidly, indicating that the system is

automatically ( passively ) arming. As an added convenience, the 30 second automatic

passive arming will not begin until all doors are closed, allowing passengers to exit the

vehicle at their convenience.

3. In 30 seconds, you will hear a single short chip from the siren, and the vehicle’s parking

lamps will flash one time, indicating that the system has ARMED. At this time, the red dash

mounted L.E.D. will begin to flash slowly, providing a visual indication that the system

is fully armed.

IMPORTANT ! The system will always arm, even when one of the doors has been left

opened.

When you leave the vehicle, and a door has been left opened, the system will arm after

10 minutes. If you plan to vacuum the car, or if service work is being performed, it is

recommended that the system be placed into the valet mode. If you do not do this, the

system will arm in 10 minutes, and you will probably inadvertently trip the alarm.

PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED :

1. Opening any door will cause the alarm to sound after a 15 second delay. The alarm will

continuetosoundfor60seconds,thenstopandmaintainanarmedcondition. Ifthepotential

thief left a door opened, the alarm will sound for two more 60 second cycles, then re - arm

and ignore the opened door zone.

2. Whenever the system is armed, the red dash mounted L.E.D. indicator will slowly flash.

This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The L.E.D. is a very low current bulb,

and will not cause the vehicle’s battery to drain, even when the vehicle is left unattended

for extended periods.

3. Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle’s parking lights will flash for the 60 second

alarm cycle, attracting added visual attention to the vehicle.

4. Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle’s starter will be by - passed. The vehicle will

not start.

DISARMING THE SYSTEM :

1. Open the door to gain entry to the vehicle. Opening the door will begin the countdown of

the 15 second entry delay.

2. You now have 15 seconds to turn the ignition key to the " on " position. If the key is not

turned to the " on " position within 15 seconds, the alarm will begin to sound.

3. Immediately after switching the ignition key on, the siren will chirp two times, the parking

lamps will flash two times, and the red dash mounted L.E.D. will turn off, indicating that

the system is DISARMED.

INTRUSIONWARNING SIGNALS :

The system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away from

thevehicle.Ifanintrusionattempthasoccurred,the sirenwillchirpfour times when the system

is disarmed. The vehicle’s parking lights will also flash three times to indicate an intrusion

has occurred.

Before you enter the vehicle, observe the dash mounted L.E.D.

1. If the L.E.D. is flashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then an intrusion attempt

was made to an optional sensor that has been connected to zone 1.

2. If the L.E.D. is flashing two times...pause...two times...pause...etc., then an intrusion

attempt was made to the hood or trunk, or to an optional sensor that has been connected

to zone 2.

3. If the L.E.D. 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 to the " on " position.

USING THE VALET SWITCH :

The valet switch allows you to temporarily by-pass all alarm functions. You should also use

the valet switch if your system is programmed for passive arming, and you intend to vacuum

or wash the vehicle. To use the valet mode;

1. Enter the vehicle, and turn the ignition key to the " on " position. If the system was armed,

it will disarm.

2. Move the valet toggle switch to the " on " position. The dash mounted L.E.D. will turn on

solid, and remain on as long as the system is in valet mode.

3.To return to normal operation, move the valet switch to the " off " position any time the ignition

key is in the " on " position.

USING THE EMERGENCY OVERRIDE SWITCH :

In the event you take longer than 15 seconds to open the door and turn the ignition switch to

the on position, the alarm will sound. You will need to use the emergency override switch to

disarm the alarm while it is sounding. To use the emergency override switch;

1. While the ignition key is off, press and release the emergency override push-button switch.

2. Within 12 seconds turn the ignition key to the " on " position. The alarm will disarm.

ELIMINATING THE ARM / DISARM CHIRPS :

The normal arming and disarming confirmation chirps can easily be turned off using the valet

toggle switch. To do this;

1. You must begin with the valet switch in the " off " position.

2. Turn the ignition key on, and then off.

3. Within 10 seconds of turning the ignition key off, move the valet toggle switch to the on -

off - on - off - on - then off positions.

4a. If, before proceeding with step 1, the chirps were on, then you will hear 2 chirps to indicate

that the chirps have been turned off.

4b. If, before proceeding with step 1, the chirps were off, then you will hear 1 chirp to indicate

that the chirps have been turned on.

5. Whenever power to the system has been disconnected ( for repair or service to the vehicle),

the chirps will be activated when the power is re - connected. To turn the chirps off, simply

execute steps 1 through 3 above.

NOTE : Whenever the chirps are by - passed, the 4 chirp intrusion indicator will always

operate. This feature will always warn you if the vehicle was tampered with in your

absence.
