Security System Features (cont’d)
auTOmaTiC ReaRming
This automatically rearms the alarm if the system is disarmed from the remote.
(see user feature #3). When disarmed by remote, the system will start a 90 second
countdown (fast flashing status light) to arm the system. This is useful if the controller
may accidentally disarms the system when it’s kept in a purse or pocket where other
items could potentially press the buttons ENHANCED AUTO REARM allows you to
cancel the countdown by pressing UNLOCK a second time within 5 seconds of the
first press to disarm the alarm.
When The SySTem TRiggeRS
If the system were to be compromised while armed, it will trigger sounding the
siren/horn and flashing the parking lights for 30 seconds (programmable). At this point
you will also be notified on the controller as to which zone is violated (if in range of the
system). When disarming the system after a trigger event, the siren/horn will chirp 4
times and the parking lights will flash 4 times instead of the standard 2 times.
lOCK On TRiggeR:
If a door is opened when the system is triggered, it will wait
until the door is closed again, then lock the doors. This patented feature is useful to
further deny a thief of further access to the vehicle.
STORm SaFe mODe:
When the system is triggered, pressing the “UNLOCK” button
will stop the alarm from sounding but will leave the doors locked. This function is use
-
ful if you have a false triggering situation due to violent weather.
ZOne ViOlaTiOn ReCall:
The system is capable of telling you which zones were
triggered last. The system’s status light will flash to indicate which zone was triggered.
This occurs during the alarm cycle AND after disarming. The system will store the last
triggered zone until the vehicle’s ignition key is turned on. See “The Status Light” sec
-
tion of this manual for further explanation of this feature.
nuiSanCe PReVenTiOn:
If the system prewarns 5 times within 15 minutes, it will
bypass the zone for the remainder of the 15 minutes before rearming the pre-warn
zone. Additionally, if a full trigger zone is left open, the system will trigger a total of 3
times before bypassing the zone. Once the zone is closed again, it will re-arm that
zone.
PRe-WaRn DeTeCTiOn
This system’s impact sensor is designed, in addition to detecting a full impact, will
warn away potential violators when it detects a light impact to the vehicle The system
will respond by chirping the siren/horn 3 times and locking the doors This is very use-
ful when an intruder attempts to unlock the door with “slim jim” types of devices.
using The Valet Switch
