Activation Alert
:
If the system experiences an alarm condition and resets itself, upon disarming
the siren will chirp three times and the parking lights will flash three times
instead of the normal one chirp and one light flash. Additionally, the Status
Indicator Light will be flashing a “Zone Violation Code”; when the alarm
condition activation occurred, the Status Indicator Light changes from
flashing slowly to flashing two to four times between pausing to indicate
which protected zone was violated.
- The Zone Violation Code will continue to be displayed until the vehicle’s
ignition is turned on.
- The Status Indicator Light will display the Zone Violation Code in place
of fast flashes indicating Automatic Rearming.
- Should the system be rearmed before the ignition clears the Zone Violation
Code memory, the Status Indicator Light shows the normal slow flashing.
- The system can store up to two consecutive Zone Violation Codes. If more
activations occurred, the two most recent codes are displayed.
Automatic Rearming:
Automatic Rearming is a programmable feature which ensures that your
system is never inadvertently disarmed. It is possible to accidentally or
unknowingly operate the transmitter from a pocket or purse. You may not
even be aware of an accidental disarming due to the enhanced operating
distance offered by the Extended Range Transmitter.
How It Works
:
Whenever the system is disarmed by the transmitter, this feature starts a 90
second countdown, which is indicated by a rapidly flashing Status Indicator
Light. During this 90 second period, if no protected entry points are opened
and the vehicle’s ignition is NOT turned on, the system will automatically
arm itself at the end of the countdown. If desired, the system can also be
programmed to automatically relock the doors when this occurs.
Notes
:
- Turning the vehicle’s ignition on cancels Automatic Rearming.
very useful when the vehicle is exposed to environmental conditions, such
as storms, trains or heavy vehicles, which may cause false activations.
Safety Disarm is a temporary “one time” operation which occurs only
while the system is activated. To remotely unlock the doors after a Safety
Disarm, simply arm, then disarm the system again.
Emergency Override:
In the event that your transmitter is lost, damaged, or its batteries have
become exhausted, the Valet Switch and the vehicle’s ignition key may be
used to disarm the system. Please note that for this operation the pressing of
the Valet Switch may be customized; this is the SecureCode feature, the
programming of which is described on page 23.
The following Emergency Override instructions reflect the SecureCode
entry of the Valet Switch as the “as received” default setting of “1 press”.
Instead of “1 press” of the Valet Switch, a customized programming of the
SecureCode would require from 2 to 12 presses.
To Disarm the System without using a Transmitter:
Step 1. With the system in the armed condition, enter the vehicle via the
driver's door (be aware that the system will activate to an alarm
condition when the door is opened).
Step 2. Using the ignition key, turn the vehicle’s ignition on.
Step 3. Within 5 seconds, enter the SecureCode by pressing and releasing
the Valet Switch once. The system will disarm.
DISARMING BY EMERGENCY OVERRIDE
Page 11
- Opening a door will suspend the 90 second countdown.
- All protected zones must remain non-violated during the 90 second
Automatic Rearming period. For example, if a vehicle door is opened
during the 90 second period, the countdown will stop. When the door is
closed, the system resets and starts a new 90 second countdown period.
- The Automatic Rearming sequence is indicated by a fast flashing Status
Indicator Light, unless the system has been activated, in which case a Zone
Violation Code will flash instead (page 15). The ignition switch must be
turned on to erase a Zone Violation Code.
- If the system is disarmed while it is activated (siren sounding and lights
flashing) Safety Disarm will cancel the Automatic Rearming for that
disarming operation only. The next time the system is armed, Automatic
Rearming will be initiated upon the subsequent disarming.
