SILENT :
Press the
LOCK
or
UNLOCK
button ONCE and the park lights will flash, but the horn/siren will NOT con-
firm the signal.
AUDIBLE :
Pressing the same button TWICE consecutively the park lights will flash, and the horn/siren will confirm
the signal.
The Alarm can be programmed to audibly confirm the signal on the first button press. (See Installation Guide).
ALARM ACTIVITY
The following characteristics enhance your vehicle’s security :
If the Alarm system is active and the horn/siren is sounding :
•
Press the UNLOCK button ONCE to stop the alarm sound. The Alarm will remain active and will immediately
resound if a zone is (re)triggered.
•
Press the UNLOCK button TWICE to stop the alarm sound, deactivate the Alarm, and unlock the doors.
•
When the vehicle is unlocked the horn/siren will sound with several short chirps to indicate the zone that has
previously triggered the Alarm. (See Remote-Start/Alarm Diagnostics page 13)
NOTE 1: If the vehicle is running with the Remote-Starter and the Alarm is triggered the Remote-Starter
will shut down immediately. This applies to Cold Start, Turbo and Idle Modes. However the vehicle can be
Remote-Started at a later time (i.e. The Alarm will not cancel Cold Start Timer).
NOTE 2: When an alarm infraction has occurred the LED on the antenna will quickly flash 3 times fol-
lowed of a long pause. It will continue to flash until the alarm is disabled.
OPEN ZONE NOTIFICATION
When the LOCK button is pressed to ARM the Alarm (non Valet Mode), it will indicate if there are any zones which
are currently active. The Alarm will sound with several short chirps to indicate which zone is active. A silent ARM or
only 1 chirp indicates that no zones are currently active. (See Remote-Starter/Alarm Diagnostics page 13)
FALSE ALARM DEACTIVATION
This option will disable any zone that triggers the alarm 3 consecutive times. The zone will automatically re-enable
once the LOCK button or the UNLOCK button is pressed.
SHOCK SENSOR (ZONE 4)
The Alarm system supports FSS2Z (2 stage - 3 wire) Shock Sensors. The Shock Sensor will produce a short audible
warning on a weak shock, and will trigger a full alarm on a strong shock. Whenever the vehicle is running with the
Remote-Starter the shock sensor is ignored until the Remote-Starter shuts down. However the Alarm can be set to
monitor the Shock Sensor if the vehicle is Armed AFTER the vehicle is Remote-Started.
VEHICLE LOCATOR/PANIC MODE
To locate your vehicle in a busy parking lot press the LOCK button for 3 seconds to sound the horn/siren (If installed)
and flash the parking lights. Press unlock to cancel this Mode.
Note: If a Alarm pre-triggered zone is in memory, this Mode will NOT clear this zone from memory.
SENSOR DEACTIVATION
In cases where a sensor is too sensitive and causes false alarms, it is possible to disable some of the zones. The
Shock Sensor (zone 4), Auxiliary In (zone 7) and the Tilt Sensor (zone 8). To disable all of these zones press the auxil-
iary FUNCTION button followed by either the LOCK button or the UNLOCK button . Confirmation of 1 signal indicates
the zones are activated and 2 signals indicates the zones are deactivated.
TRANSMITTER RANGE
Several factors may affect the operating range of the remote transmitter:
•
A weak transmitter battery.
•
The operating environment such as in the city and airports due to radio interference, cell phone towers,
etc…
•
Several types of metal such as the vehicle itself, other vehicles, the windshields tint lines and large buildings.
•
The vehicle’s shape. Vans generally have poorer range.
•
The shape of the vehicle’s roof and the A-pillars cause considerable radio-frequency deflection. As a result,
the direction in which the vehicle is facing with relation to the remote transmitter can affect range. Facing
the front of the vehicle generally produces the greatest range; secondly facing the back. Facing either side of
the vehicle will usually give the poorest range.
•
The range will be significantly poorer in crowded parking lots as opposed to empty parking lots.
•
Hold the transmitter at shoulder height or hold it against your chin so your body acts as a larger antenna.
