Features and Benefits of the Code Alarm CA-130TM

Two Easy-to-Use Weather-Resistant Remote Controls

The remote controls included with the Code Alarm CA-130TM utilize

durable, moisture resistant cases and sealed rubber buttons for

reliability and long life. Rolling code technology prevents the

transmitter signals from being duplicated. The button functions are

clearly labeled to make the Code Alarm CA-130TM simple to operate.

All Entrances Protected

Opening any door or entrance protected by the security system

triggers the alarm’s 125db siren (or vehicle horn) and flashes the

vehicle parking lights.

Starter Disable

The Code Alarm CA-130TM protects your vehicle from theft by

disabling the starter when the system is armed.

IT-sTM Interior Theft Sensor

This patented sensor uses infra-red technology to reliably detect

vehicle impact associated with attempted intrusion. The IT-s sensor

guards against vehicle body damage, and theft of the vehicle’s

equipment (such as airbags) and personal belongings.

Remote Keyless Entry

The Code Alarm CA-130TM conveniently locks and unlocks the

vehicle’s doors and opens the trunk or hatch (if equipped and

connected) by remote control.*

Personal Protection Features

Remote Panic Alarm, Headlight Control, Illuminated Entry,

and Car Finder are among an array of features that enhance

personal safety. **May require additional componets and/or labor

Interior Status Indicator

The bright-blue warning light is an effective visual deterrent to a

would-be thief.

PowerRangeTM Antenna

This long-range antenna allows you to operate the Code Alarm CA-

130TM from distances of up to 1/8mile.

E-Code Coded Override System

If this feature is enabled, it will allow you to enter a personal 4-digit

code that only you will know. This will be used for overriding the

system in the case of an emergency or a lost transmitter.

*If vehicle is equipped with power door locks and they are connected to the alarm system by your installer.

CA 130 owners rev 7-04.pmd 7/28/2004, 3:34 PM3

* Throughoutthismanual, ‘press’ refers to pressing

forlessthan 1 second; ‘press and hold’refersto

pressingformore than 1 second.

** ’Siren’ also refers to the vehicle horn if it is used as the alarm sounding device.*

†Ifyouhavechosen the Silent Arming Option, the siren willnotsoundwhen arming or disarming until the

appropriatebuttonis pressed a secondtime.

Arming the Security System

To arm the system, exit the vehicle, close all doors, then press* the

LOCK button. The siren** will “chirp” twice†and the parking lights will

flash twice, indicating the system is armed. The doors will also lock at

this time (if equipped and connected). The status indicator (blue

warning light on the dash) will blink steadily, once per second.

Pre-arm Mode

If the siren chirps and the parking lights flash only once, this indicates

that the vehicle courtesy light is on, or that an entrance is not closed

securely. Check to see that doors, hood, and trunk are properly

closed. Once all entrances are secured (and the courtesy light is off),

the system will chirp / flash again. The system is now fully armed.

(If the entrance is not secured within 4 minutes, the system will arm

and ignore the unsecured entrance until it is closed.)

Disarming the Security System

To disarm the system, press the UNLOCK button. The siren will chirp

and the parking lights will flash once, and the doors will unlock. The

courtesy light will turn on for 1 minute, or until the vehicle is started.

Attempted Intrusion Identification

If the siren chirps four times when disarming, this indicates that the

system was triggered in your absence. The status indicator will also

flash rapidly. Perform the following operation to determine the protected

zone that triggered the system:

After disarming, press the

emergency override button.

The siren will chirp to indicate

the cause of the alarm trigger:

1 chirp IT-s Interior Theft Sensor

2 chirps Door

3 chirps Hood

4 chirps Trunk/Optional Sensors

occurs while the system is armed:

• Any protected entrance is opened

• The vehicle ignition is turned on

• The vehicle is jolted hard enough to signal the impact sensor

arm, awaiting the next intrusion attempt. To stop the siren while

keeping the system armed and doors locked, press the LOCK button

while the system is triggered.

Off is disarmed

Flashing Slowly is armed

Flashing Very Quickly was triggered in your absence

System Maintenance

Changing the Remote Control Battery

The 12-volt alkaline battery (GP-23A) supplied in your remote control

should last approximately one year, depending on usage. When the

battery begins to weaken, you will notice a decrease in range, or the

distance from your vehicle that your remote transmitter will operate.

Follow the instructions below to change the remote transmitter battery.

1.Insert the edge of a coin into the slot at the side of the remote

control. Twist the coin to pry the remote control halves apart.

2.Remove the old batteries and replace with new ones.

Be sure to observe the (+) and (-) signs in the battery compartment.

3.Carefully snap the case halves back together, then test the

remote control.
