Power saver mode
Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while armed or in Valet Mode, after a
long period of time in which no operation has been performed. This lowers the current draw to
the vehicle’s battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions:
Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has been armed for 24 hours, the
LED will flash at half its normal rate, decreasing the system’s current draw.
Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet Mode the LED illuminates steadily.
If the vehicle is not used (ignition is not turned on) for a period of one hour while the system
is in Valet Mode, the LED will shut off. If the system remains in Valet Mode, the LED will
come back on the next time the ignition is turned on and then back off.
Programming options
Programming options control what your system does during normal operation, and require few
or no additional parts. However, some may require additional installation labour.
The following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in Bold:
Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic arming 30-seconds
after the last door has been closed).
Arming/disarming confirmation siren chirps on or off.
The ignition controlled door lock feature on or off: With this feature on, the doors will lock
three seconds after the ignition is turned on, and unlock when the ignition is turned off. The
system will not lock the doors when the ignition is turned on with any door open. If your
installer is programming the security system with the programming tool, ignition lock and
unlock are independent features and can be programmed separately.
Passive door locking (with passive arming) or active door locking (only when arming with the
transmitter). Passive locking allows the vehicle’s doors to lock when the security system
passively arms (after the 30 second countdown). This feature only works if passive arming
has been programmed.
Note: When programmed for passive arming and active lock, if the system is disarmed
without a door being opened, the system will relock the doors when it passively rearms.
Panic mode enabled/disabled with the ignition on: Some states have laws against siren
capability in a moving vehicle.
Forced passive arming on or off: If your system is programmed for passive arming and the
forced passive arming feature has been programmed on, the system will passively arm after
one hour, even if a protected entry has been left open. This feature is useful if a door has
