YOUR "Code Hopping" TRANSMITTERS
The transmitters included with your new security system use the most advanced and
secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current automotive security
system. Some of today’s sophisticated auto thieves use a device known as a code grabber,
which will receive and store the signal from your keychain transmitter, and re transmit at a
later time to disarm your system.
Your code hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the button is pressed, so
when a thief grabs then retransmits your signal, the alarm system 

will not respond.

If your transmitter button is pressed more than fifty times while it is out of range of the vehicle
(children playing with your keys), the transmitter will not operate when you return to the
vehicle, and will need to be realigned to the receiver. To do this, simply press the lock button
two times within a one second time period. The system will now respond to that transmitter
each time a button is pressed.
NOTE: Your system has the option of using a siren, the vehicle horn, or both for the sounding
device.  Where the siren is referenced below, the horn or both may in fact chirp, or beep.
 ARMING THE SYSTEM - ACTIVE
1. Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood lid, and trunk lid.
2. Press and release the Lock button on the keychain transmitter.

 Parking Lights flash one time.

þ

 Siren and or Horn sounds one chirp.

If the siren/horn

 

sounds 3 chirps, then you have left a door, trunk, or hood lid ajar.

Simply close the opened entry point to provide full protection.  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.  If the
siren/horn did not sound when arming, then the chirps have been turned off, and
you should refer to the section titled “ ELIMINATING THE ARM / DISARM CHIRPS “
in this manual.
