ASSIVE ARMING

 

The system 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 detects that you have left the vehicle by opening and closing a door. 

Whenever the system is in its 30-second passive arming countdown, the in-vehicle status LED will 

flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed. At the 20-second point of the countdown, 

the siren will chirp to indicate that the system is about to arm. At the 30-second point, the 

parking lights will flash to indicate that the system is armed. 

The LCD remote responds to passive arming with one beep and the   icon will flash 3-times to 

indicate successful arming of the system.  

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, if a door, hood or trunk is triggered 

during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over. 

 

When armed your vehicle is protected as follows: 

 

Light impacts trigger the Warn Away

®

 signal. When triggered, the siren chirps and the 

parking lights flash for a few seconds. 

 

Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered sequence can be set for 30 or 60 

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 system with your LCD remote 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 progressive response as opening a door. 

 

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

 

Any full trigger of the alarm system will immediately send an alarm page to your remote 

informing you that your vehicle should be checked.

LEVEL SECURITY ARMING

 

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 the Table of 

Zones section of this guide.) Pressing 

 again within five seconds of arming the security system 

will activate the Multi- Level Security Arming feature. Each time  

 is pressed again, a different 

security level is selected. The different security levels can be selected as follows: 

 

Press 

 once: The siren chirps once. The system is armed. 

 

Press 

 a second time within five seconds: The parking lights flash twice. Zone 2 is now
