Important Information

Congratulations on the purchase of your state-of-the-art vehicle

security system. This system has been designed to provide years of

trouble-free operation. Due to the complexity of this system, it

must be installed by an authorized dealer only. Installation of this

product by anyone other than an authorized dealer voids the war-

ranty. All dealers are provided with a preprinted dealer certificate

to verify that they are authorized.

This owner’s guide should help you to get the most out of your sys-

tem. Please take the time to read it prior to using the system.

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote control

is powered by a miniature 12V battery, type GP23A, that will last

approximately one year under normal use. When the battery weak-

ens, operating range will be reduced and the LED on the remote

will dim.

Your warranty card must be returned and the bar code serial num-

ber must not be removed. If the warranty card is not returned, you

do not have a warranty. It is also necessary to keep your proof of

purchase, which reflects that the product was installed by an au-

thorized dealer. Make sure that you receive the warranty card from

your dealer.

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is sub-

ject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause

harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interfer-

ence received, including interference that may cause undesired

operation.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party

responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to oper-

ate this device.

Transmitter Functions

The receiver uses a computer-based Learn Routine to learn the

transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any transmit-

ter button to any receiver function. The transmitter initially comes

programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also be cus-

tomized by an authorized dealer. The buttons in all of the instruc-

tions in this manual correspond to a Standard Configuration trans-

mitter.

Your system has an expanded configuration that can be utilized

when upgrading to the four-button remote. In the expanded con-

figuration, your system will operate similarly to many factory key-

less entry systems that use separate remote transmitter buttons

for the arm, disarm, panic and auxiliary output functions. Multi-

Level Security Arming is also possible in the expanded configura-

tion. Contact your dealer for details.

Using Your System

The button numbers used in the descriptions correspond to the

standard configuration. Remember, this is not the only way your

transmitter may be set up. It can be custom configured to meet

your needs.

You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing of your

transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a

short siren sound, or chirp, and see the parking lights flash once.

If the vehicle’s power door locks have been connected to the sys-

tem, the doors will lock.

While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximate-

ly once per second, showing that the system is actively protecting
