is a sophisticated, yet flexible security and
convenience system. Many of its operations may be configured as the user
desires- “Programming Mode” allows you the ability to configure 20
operational features. Another programming level allows you to add
transmitters to operate your system, and an additional programming level
enables you customize the SecureCode.
Your vehicle ignition key and the Valet Switch are used to enter the
Programming Mode, following the three steps listed below. Once in
Programming Mode, the Valet Switch is used to access the desired feature,
and the transmitter is then used to change the chosen feature’s status. During
the process, the siren and the Status Indicator Light indicate certain conditions
of Programming Mode and the chosen feature’s status.
Once the system is in Programming Mode, the Valet Switch is then
pressed and released the number of times equal to the feature number which
is to be accessed for programming. After pressing the Valet Switch as many
times as the feature number, the siren will chirp the same number of times
and the Status Light will also flash the same number, between pauses.
Once the feature has been selected its status, or setting, can be chosen by
pressing the appropriate button on the transmitter. Basically, pressing the
transmitter’s Large Upper Button turns the feature on, or pressing the
transmitter’s Small Lower Button turns the feature off. Features which are
not “on or off” features, such as the alarm duration of 30 or 60 seconds, are
noted otherwise.
To Enter Programing Mode:
Step 1:
Turn the vehicles’s ignition on.
Step 2:
Turn the ignition off.
Step 3:
Within 5 seconds, Press & Release the Valet Switch 5 times.
-The siren will chirp then sound briefly and the Status Light will
flash to confirm that the system is entering Programing Mode.
-Once in Programming Mode, if 10 seconds of no programming
activity occurs, the system will exit Programming Mode. Pro-
gramming activity is the pressing of the Valet Switch or press-
ing a transmitter button once a feature is accessed.
To Access a Feature:
Step 4:
Within 10 seconds, Press & Release the Valet Switch the same
number of times as the desired feature’s number.
-The siren will chirp and the Status Light will flash as many times
as the Valet Switch was pressed to indicate the feature number
which is now accessed.

To Change a Feature:
Step 5:
After accessing the desired feature, within 10 seconds Press &
Release either the transmitter’s Large Upper Button or the Small
Lower Button.
- Pressing the Large Upper Button turns the feature on; the siren
will chirp once and the Status Light will turn on.
- Pressing the Small Lower Button turns the feature off; the siren
will chirp twice and the Status Light will turn off.
To Access and Change further Features:
Step 6:
If there are more features to be programmed, within 10 seconds
of the previous action Press & Release the Valet Switch the same
number of times as the next desired feature’s number.
- Again the siren will chirp and the Status Light will flash as many
times as the Valet Switch was pressed to indicate the new
feature number which is now accessed.
- Use the transmitter as described in Step 5 to change the newly
accessed feature as desired.
- Repeat this Step 6 for each additional feature until all features
are programmed.
To Exit Programing Mode:
Step 7:
Allow 10 seconds to pass without performing any programming
actions; or, turn the vehicles’s ignition in.
- The siren will sound briefly and the Status Light will go out to
confirm that the system is exiting Programing Mode.
Important Note:
Once the system is in Programming Mode, if at any time
10 seconds elapse without programming activity, the system will automatically
exit Programming Mode. To prevent the system from prematurely exiting
Programming Mode, the feature can entered again by pressing the Valet
Switch, or if a feature is accessed, by pressing either of the buttons. Features
can be selected in any order as desired.
The following pages explain each of the programmable features in detail,
including how to program transmitters and how to customize your system’s
SecureCode. Following the features explanation is a convenient feature
programming checklist, which greatly simplifies the feature programming
process.
