Using Your System

Arming

You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing button I 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

are controlled by the system, the doors will lock.

While the system is armed, the Status LED will flash about twice a second,

showing that the system is actively protecting your vehicle.If you hear a sec-

ond chirp after arming and see the Status LED flashes in groups, see

Diagnostics section.This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.

The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called pas-

sive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it will auto-

matically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off and the system

"sees" you leave the vehicle by opening and closing a door. Whenever the

system is in its 30-second passive arming countdown, the Status LED will

flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed.

NOTE: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-protected trunk or hood) is open,

the system will not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is programmed on. See

Programming Options section). Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming

countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.

When armed, your vehicle is protected in the following ways:

• Light impacts will trigger theWarn Away®signal.When triggered, the siren

will chirp and the parking lights will flash for a few seconds.

• Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The trigger sequence is 30 sec-

onds of constant siren and flashing parking lights.

• If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chirping the siren

and flashing the parking lights. Three seconds later, the siren output

changes to a continuous blast.This progressive response gives you time

to disarm the system with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the

door while the system is armed, while still providing instant response

(even if the door is immediately closed).

• Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage response as

opening a door.

• The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking.

Arming While Driving

Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle! Simply press button I on

your transmitter while the vehicle is running. The system will chirp once and

then once more to indicate that the ignition is on. The system will not respond

to any input except the door triggers and the starter kill relay (if installed) will

not be activated. Once you have reached your destination, the system must

be disarmed by pressing Button I on the transmitter once more. The siren will

chirp twice and the LED will stop flashing. If you do not disarm the system, it

will trigger when the any door is opened to exit the vehicle.

Disarming

To turn off, or disarm the system, press Button I again. You will hear two

chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If power locks are controlled by

he system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps either four or five times

when disarming, see Diagnostics section. This is called Tamper Alert.

High Security Disarm

Your system includes a High Security Disarm feature. During the trigger

sequence, using the transmitter to disarm the system will only stop the trigger

sequence (the siren will stop and the parking lights will stop flashing). Howev-

er, the system will remain armed and the doors will stay locked. This is

extremely useful if you must stop the system from sounding, but are unable

to check the vehicle visually. The trigger will stop, but the vehicle will remain

protected. To disarm with the transmitter during a trigger, press Button I on

your transmitter.The siren will stop sounding. Next press Button I once more

and the system will chirp four or five times (reporting the trigger) and disarm.

Disarming Without a Transmitter

This feature allows you to disarm the system without the transmitter should it

be lost, damaged or disabled. In order to disarm without a transmitter, you

must have the vehicle's ignition key and know where the valet button is. Be

sure to check with the installer for the location of the Valet button.

Turn on the ignition.Push the Valet switch with-

in 15 seconds.The system should now disarm.

If it does not, you may have waited too long, so

turn the ignition off and on and try again.

IMPORTANT: The Valet®switch will not disarm the optional VRS®feature.

The hidden VRS® arm/disarm switch must be used (see VRS®section.).

Silent ModeTM

To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use Silent ModeTM. Simply

press Button II briefly before arming or disarming, and the confirmation

chirp(s) will be eliminated for that one operation only. If you want the arm/dis-

arm chirps turned off permanently, your dealer can do this for you.

NOTE: The Warn Away®response to lighter impacts is bypassed if the system is armed using Silent

Mode™. This ensures that no chirps will be emitted by the siren in an area you want chirp free.

The system is still fully able to trigger. Only the Warn Away®response is defeated.

Panic Mode

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by trig-

gering the system with your transmitter! Just press Button I for 1.5 seconds,

and you will enter Panic Mode.The siren will sound and the parking lights will

flash for 30 seconds. To stop Panic Mode at any time, press Button I on the

transmitter again.

Valet®Mode

You can prevent your system from automatically arming and triggering by

using Valet®Mode. This is very useful when washing the vehicle or having it

serviced. In Valet®Mode, the system will not arm, even with the transmitter,

but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will work

normally.

To enter or exit Valet®Mode with the Valet®switch:

Turn ignition to "run" position, then turn to "off" posi-

tion.Press and release theValet®switch within 10 sec-

onds. The Status LED will light steady if you have

entered Valet®Mode, and it will go out if you exited

Valet®Mode.

Using Remote Valet®as you enter or exit the vehicle:

Open any door. Press Button I (or the arm/disarm button). Press Button II (or

the channel 2 button). Press Button I again. The Status LED will light steady

if you have entered Valet®Mode, and it will go out if you exited Valet®Mode.

Nuisance Prevention CircuitryTM

Your system has DEI's Nuisance Prevention Circuitry™(NPC™). It prevents

annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or en-

vironmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.

Here's how it works:

Let's say the alarm triggers

three times

.Each time, the same sensor or switch

is triggering the alarm.The three triggers are within 60 minutes of each other.

NPC™will interpret this pattern of triggers as false alarms. After the third trig-

ger, NPC™ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any other

sensors or switches sharing the same zone). If the bypassed sensor tries to

trigger the system while it is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period

will start over. This ensures that a sensor that continuously triggers will

remain bypassed.

Doors are covered by NPC™differently: If the alarm is triggered by an open

door for three full cycles (one and one half minutes), the doors will be by-

passed until the trigger ceases.

NOTE: Arming and disarming the system does not reset this function! The only ways to reset a

bypassed zone are for it to not trigger for 60 minutes, or to turn on the ignition. If testing your

system, it is important to remember that the NPC™ programming can cause zones to be bypassed

and seem to stop working. If five chirps are heard when disarming, NPC™has been engaged. If

you wish to clear the NPC™memory, turn the ignition on.

Diagnostics

The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of

the switches and sensors connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and

sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system. The micro-

processor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your

absence.

Arming Diagnostics

If the system is armed with an input active (door open, sensor triggering, etc.)

the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time a few seconds

later.This is called Bypass Notification.

NOTE: Bypass notification will not occur when using Silent Mode™or if chirps have been pro-

grammed OFF.

The system will ignore the input that was active when it was armed until it

goes away. Three seconds later it will monitor that input normally. For exam-

ple, if your car has interior light exit delay, and you arm the system before the

interior light goes out, you may get Bypass Notification. Three seconds after

the light goes out, however, the doors are monitored normally.

Disarming Diagnostics

Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If

four

chirps are heard when dis-

arming, the system was triggered in your absence. If

five

chirps are heard, a

zone was triggered so many times that Nuisance Prevention Circuitry™has

bypassed that zone. In either case, the Status LED will indicate which zone

was involved (see

Table of Zones

section).The system will retain this informa-

tion in its memory, and chirp four or five times each time it is disarmed, until

the next time the ignition key is turned on.
