ARMING THE SYSTEM: (ACTIVE)
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle and close and lock all doors, hood
and trunk.
2. Press and release the Lock button on the keychain transmitter. The
siren will "chirp" once, the vehicle's parking lights will ash once, the
doors will lock (optional), and the dash mounted LED will begin to
slowly ash.
WARNING! Excessive pressure on the transmitter buttons will damage the
internal components on the circuit board. All that is required
is a light push to the button.
NOTE: If the siren "chirped" three times when Locked, then one of the
entry points (hood, trunk, doors) has been left opened. Closing the
hood, trunk, or doors will correct the problem and you do not need
to disarm the system to make the correction. If the siren "chirped"
three times, sometime after arming, the exclusive delayed dome
light learn circuit has been programmed and the system detected
a open entry point after the learned delay expired. Again, closing
the hood, trunk, or doors will correct the problem and you do not
need to disarm the system to make the correction.
ARMING THE SYSTEM: (PASSIVE)
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, close and lock all doors, hood and
trunk.
2. The dash mounted LED will begin to ash rapidly, indicating that the
system is automatically (passive) arming. As an added convenience,
the automatic passive arming will not begin until all doors and trunk lid
are closed, allowing passengers to exit the vehicle at their convenience.
3. In 30 seconds, you will hear a single short "chirp" from the siren and
the vehicle's parking lamps will ash one time, indicating the system is
ARMED. At this time, the dash mounted LED will begin to ash slowly,
providing a visual indication that the system is fully ARMED.
OPTION NOTE: If the optional (not included) power door lock interface
has been installed, the alarm control module can be
programmed to:
128-9345
Page 4 of 8
Page 4
a) Automatically lock the doors during step 3 on the previous page, or
b) Lock the doors only when the transmitter is operated
4. If you wish to arm the system immediately, simply press and release the
ARMING button on the keychain transmitter. The siren will "chirp" once,
the vehicle's parking lamps will ash once, the doors will lock (optional),
and the dash mounted LED will begin to slowly ash.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED:
1. Opening any door, hood or trunk will cause the alarm to immediately
sound. The siren will continue to sound for 30 seconds, then stop and
automatically re-arm the vehicle. If the potential thief left a door opened,
the siren will sound for six 30 second cycles, then re-arm and ignore
the opened door.
2. Any strong impact to the vehicle’s glass will cause the alarm to trigger
for the full 30 second alarm cycle,
3. Whenever the system is armed, the dash mounted LED indicator will
slowly ash. This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The
LED is a very low current bulb and will not cause the vehicle's battery to
drain, even when left unattended for extended periods.
4. Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will ash for
the 30 second alarm cycle, attracting added visual attention to the vehicle.
5. Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle's starter will be bypassed. If
a thief should choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can not be started.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM:
1. As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Unlock button on
the keychain transmitter.
2. The siren will "chirp" 2 times and the vehicle's parking lamps will ash
two times.
3a. ACTIVE: The dash mounted LED will turn off, and remain off until the
system is re-armed.
3b. PASSIVE: Never attempt to disarm the system from a distance that
prevents you from opening a door within 30 seconds. Since the system
is programmed for passive arming, it will begin to re-arm until a door
is opened. Opening the door will suspend the passive arming cycle.

INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS:
The system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you
were away from the vehicle. If an intrusion attempt has occurred, the siren
will "chirp" 4 times when disarming the system.
The vehicle's parking lights will also ash 3 times to indicate an intrusion
has occurred. Enter the vehicle and observe the dash mounted LED for
further information.
1. If the LED is ashing one time... pause...one time... etc., then an intrusion
attempt was made to a light activated entry point, or the shock sensor
was activated.
2. If the LED is ashing two times...pause...two times...etc., then an intru-
sion attempt was made to the hood, trunk, or an optional sensor that
has been connected to zone 2.
3. If the LED is ashing three times...pause...three times...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 from memory when the ignition key is turned on.
Push Button LED Valet / SYSTEM OVERRIDE Switch:
The "Valet" switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions,
eliminating the need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or
garage mechanics. When the system is in valet mode, all alarm functions
are bypassed, however, the remote panic feature and remote door locks
(optional) will remain operational. To use the valet mode:
1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition key to the ON position.
2. Press and hold the LED valet push button switch for 5 seconds until the
LED turns on solid. The LED will remain on as long as the system is
in the valet mode.
3. To return to normal operation, with the ignition switch on, press and re-
lease the LED valet push button switch one time. The LED will turn off
indicating the unit has been returned to the normal mode of operation.
In the event you lose your keychain transmitter, or if the transmitter fails to
disarm the system, the valet switch can be used as a system override switch.
Open the car door (the alarm will sound). Turn the ignition key on, and
press and hold the LED valet switch on. The alarm will stop sounding, and
the vehicle can now be started.

NOTE: Always remember to exit Valet Mode to ensure that the vehicle
remains protected at all times.
ELIMINATING THE ARM / DISARM CHIRPS:
The normal arming and disarming conrmation "chirps" can easily be turned
on and off using the valet push button switch. To do this:
1. Turn the ignition key on, and then off.
2. Within 10 seconds of turning the ignition key off, press and release the
LED valet push button switch three times.
3a. If, before proceeding with step 2, the chirps were on, then you will hear
2 chirps to indicate that the chirps have been turned off.
3b. If, before proceeding with step 2, the chirps were off, then you will hear
1 chirp to indicate that the chirps have been turned on.
NOTE: Whenever the chirps are by-passed, the 3 chirp defect and 4 chirp
intrusion indicator will always operate. This feature will always
warn you if there is a defective sensor during the arming sequence
or if the vehicle had been tampered with in your absence, even if
the normal arming and disarming chirps have been turn off.
REMOTE PANIC OPERATION:
The Lock and Unlock buttons on your keychain transmitter also functions as
a "panic" switch for instant activation of the alarm in emergency situations.
To use the remote panic switch:
1. Press and hold the arming button on the keychain transmitter for 3 sec-
onds or more. The alarm will immediately sound.
2. To stop the alarm, press and release the Trunk/Key button on the key-
chain transmitter. If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically
stop after 30 seconds.
TRUNK RELEASE:
This security system has an additional feature that can be wired to a num-
ber of different optional accessories. Some of the more common uses for
this "channel" are:
Remote Trunk Release - available for any vehicle with factory installed
electronic push button trunk release.

proximately 3 seconds. If the system has been programmed differently by
your installation center, this output may be accessed by pressing buttons
1 and 2 simultaneously for 3 seconds.
NOTE This feature will not operate when the vehicle's ignition key is
turned "ON".
