addition to requiring the ignition key, one to two separate stages of pressing the Valet
Switch may also be custom programmed as a requirement to accomplish the
disarming of the system. Each of these stages may be further customized by
programming multiple presses of the valet switch. This programmable feature, which
is explained in detail on pages 32-33, allows you to further enhance the effectiveness
of your security system by "hardening" its resistance to being defeated. The factory-
set default for Selectable Code Override is one press at stage 1, and NO press at stage
2; this is the most convenient and user-friendly setting. Therefore, the following step-
by-step instructions reflects first the default setting, and then the following text
continues to explain the custom-programmed setting:
Step 1 - While the system in the armed condition, enter via the driver's door. Be
aware that the system will activate when the door is opened, sounding the siren
or horn, flashing the parking and dome lights, and locking the doors if the door
which was entered is closed again before disarming the system.
Step 2 - Using your key, turn the ignition "on". The following step must be
performed within the next 10 seconds.
Step 3 - Momentarily press the valet switch equal to the number programmed for
stage #1; the factory setting is one.
If the factory default setting of 1 and 0 presses is retained, the system will disarm.
The disarming will be accompanied by four chirps.

If the valet switch is pressed an incorrect number of times, or if stage #2 presses
have been programmed, the system will not disarm, but pause and chirp once before
continuing to sound. When a stage #2 entry is required, at this point the stage #2 entry
must be made within 10 seconds. After a failed attempt to achieve Selectable Code
Override, the ignition switch must be turned "off", then "on" again before another
attempt is made. If two failed Selectable Code Override attempts are made, the
system will ignore any further presses of the valet switch for two minutes. If this
occurs, the system will reset to the armed state, then sound the siren or horn twice
after 2 minutes to indicate that another attempt may be made to achieve Selectable
Code Override. See pages 32-33 for further explanation of the Selectable Code
Override; this includes how to program a custom Selectable Code.
Once the system is disarmed, if Valet Mode is desired, use the Easy Valet
TM
procedure to place the system into Valet Mode. Remember, if the Selectable Code
Override factory setting of "stage 1, one valet switch press and stage 2, no valet switch
press" is still present, simply pressing the valet switch once within 10 seconds of
turning the ignition switch "on" will override and disarm the system.
Your system includes a Remote Panic feature. In the event of attack or assault,
or any time you feel threatened or in need of assistance, you can use your remote
transmitter to activate this feature. This feature operates regardless of the system's
status, or if the ignition switch is "on" or "off".

Remote Panic
Page - 15
Pressing and holding the PANIC button for 2 seconds will activate this feature,
sounding the siren or horn, flashing the parking lights, and locking the doors.
After 60 seconds, the system will stop and reset. The car's doors will remain
locked, and the system will remain in the armed condition. If the system was in Valet
Mode when Remote Panic was engaged, the system will be in an armed state if panic
is stopped or if it is allowed to reset at 60 seconds. If you wish to stop the Panic feature
during the 60 second period, press either the PANIC, LOCK or UNLOCK button.
When doing this, pressing PANIC leaves the system armed without a door lock
operation; pressing LOCK to stop panic will leave the system armed with locked doors,
and pressing UNLOCK will leave the system disarmed with unlocked doors. If desired,
the PANIC button may be used to operate the Additional Output; this programmable
feature is described on page 42.
The remote engine starting feature should not be used when the
vehicle is parked in an enclosed structure or garage!
This unit is designed to be installed on automatic transmission vehicles
only!
Remote Starting
Your system offers the ultimate in comfort and convenience- remote engine starting.
This feature allows the vehicle's interior to be warmed in the winter or cooled in the
summer before you enter the vehicle. Simply leave the climate controls set to the
desired settings when leaving the vehicle prior to using the remote starting feature.
The remote starting feature operation is as follows:
1) Press and hold the transmitter's LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 2 seconds. The
system will respond with one chirp and one parking light flash.
2) The engine will start, after which the system will chirp once more and flash the
parking lights twice. The parking lights will then continue to flash twice between
pauses for the duration of the engine run time.
-
When leaving the vehicle before remote starting, remember to set the climate
controls to the desired heating or air conditioning settings.
The engine will run for 10 minutes (the factory-set period). A 20 minute setting may
be programmed, if desired, by referring to the "Programming Features" section. Once
the engine has been remotely started, to remotely stop the engine again press the
transmitter's LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 2 seconds. The system will stop the
engine, chirp the siren twice and flash the parking and dome lights twice. If desired,
the system's alarm function may be armed or disarmed as needed during remote start
operations (the system must be disarmed before entering the vehicle).
Certain conditions will prevent the engine from remotely starting, or if remotely
started already, will stop the running engine. These conditions are:
1) Pressing the brake pedal.
