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

warranty. All dealers are provided with preprinted dealer certifi-

cates to verify that they are authorized.

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

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

system maintenance

The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote

control is powered by a small, lightweight 3 volt lithium battery

➜

that will last approximately one year under normal use. When the

battery weakens, operating range will be reduced and the LED on

the remote will dim.

your warranty

Your warranty registration must be returned and the bar code

serial number must not be removed. If the warranty registration

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 authorized dealer. Make sure that you receive the

warranty registration from your dealer.

fcc/id notice

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

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

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

interference received, including interference that may cause

undesirable operation.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party

responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to

operate this device.

Tested to Comply

with FCC Standards

The system uses a computer-based learn routine to learn the

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

mitter button to any system function. The transmitter initially

comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also

be customized by an authorized dealer. The buttons in all of the

instructions in this manual correspond to a Standard

Configuration transmitter.

Standard configuration

Button

The arm, disarm, and panic functions are controlled by this

button.

Button

Remote Controlled Chirp Muting and an optional accessory

function are controlled by . (Remote Controlled Chirp

Muting works by pressing for less than one second before

arming or disarming the system. An optional accessory function,

such as trunk release, can be controlled by pressing for 1.5

seconds.) This accessory output controls __________________.

Button

An optional accessory convenience or expansion function that

you have added to your system can be activated by pressing

. This accessory output controls ___________________.

➜

uussiinnggyyoouurrssyysstteemm

The buttons used in the instructions in this manual 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.

active arming

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

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

a short siren sound, or chirp, and the parking lights will flash

once. If the vehicle’s power door locks have been connected to the

system, the doors will lock.

While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately

once per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting

your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming, and see the

status LED flashing in groups, refer to the

Diagnostics

section of

this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.

passive arming

The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically

(called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive

arming, it will automatically 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. The siren will chirp one

time 20 seconds after the last door has been closed. The system

is not actually armed at that point. The system arms and the

doors lock (if connected and programmed for passive locking) at

the 30 second mark, but the siren will not chirp. The early chirp

provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming.

When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:

➤Light impacts will trigger the Warn 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 triggered

sequence is between 1-180 seconds 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 sys-

tem with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door

while the system is armed, while still providing an instant

response (even if the door is immediately closed).

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 pro-

grammed on). See Programming Options section of this

guide. Additionally, each time a protected entry is trig-

gered during the arming countdown, the 30-second

countdown starts over.

➤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.

multi-level security arming (optional feature)

Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the

security system's inputs or sensors will be active and which will

be bypassed at the time that the system is armed. (See Table of

Zones section.) Pressing the arm button again within five seconds

of arming the security system will activate the Multi-Level

Security Arming feature. Each time the arm button is pressed

again, a different security level is selected. The different security

levels can be selected as follows:

➤➤Pressing the arm button one time: The siren chirps once. The

system is armed.

➤➤Pressing the arm button a second time within five seconds:

The siren chirps twice followed by a long chirp. Zone Two is

now bypassed.

➤➤Pressing the arm button a third time within five seconds: The

siren chirps three times followed by a long chirp. Zone Four

is now bypassed.

note: Multi-Level Security Arming is only available when

using an optional Radar Master transmitter that has been

configured with separate transmitter buttons for arming

and disarming.
