• The locked or unlocked pad-
lock (windshield) reflects the
true locked or unlocked status
of the doors (certain pro-
grammable features can auto-
matically arm the system,
but not lock the doors). Arm-
ing with the transmitter/trans-
ceiver always locks the doors;
• The digit readout is a clock, with AM and PM indication. This readout also
shows how many transmitters/transceivers can operate the system.
• The “DISARM” will also show “ARM”; this indicates the Armed or Disarmed
status of the system. Neither icon is present when the system is in Valet Mode.
disarming with the transmitter/
transceiver will unlock the doors unless the system is activated and sounding.
• “VALET” indicates Alarm Valet Mode, replacing the “ARM” or “DISARM”
icons. A musical tone occurs when placing the system into Alarm Valet Mode.
• When “BAT LOW” appears the transceiver’s 1.5 volt AAA battery should be
replaced with a new battery.
• The transceiver’s chirps and musical tones may be turned off, which makes the
unit vibrate instead; “MUTE” indicates this state.
• The “3” within a circle appears when the 3rd Channel Output is operated.
• “HOOD/TRUNK” indicates that this vehicle zone is or has been violated.
If associated with the system being activated, the transceiver also emits chirps,
until any button is pressed. In this case, the icon remains flashing until the
ignition switch is turned on.
• If a remote starting attempt is made, and systems aborts it due to a violated
safety circuit, the “crossed-out key” on the hood area will appear (this is
accompanied by a musical tone).
• The “CARJACK” icon within the vehicle’s front tag frame indicates that this
operation has been activated, which can be performed by any of three methods.
• On the vehicle’s windshield is a “hammer” and “impact” icon. When the shock
sensor detects light impact, causing the system to prewarn, the “impact” icon
alone will momentarily appear, accompanied by three chirps. If the sensor
detects a harder impact or breaking glass, activating the system, the full
hammer and impact icon appears, and the transceiver chips until any button is
pressed, and the icon remains flashing until the ignition switch is turned on.
• The “DOOR” icon will indicate that the system was activated via the door
detection circuit. The transceiver chirps until any button is pressed, and the
icon remains flashing until the ignition is turned on.
• The “start” icon at the rear of the vehicle confirms remote starting, and is
accompanied by a musical melody. This icon stays on while remote start is
Arming
the Omega MAX-E system turns on the antitheft protection, disables the
vehicle’s starter and locks the doors (provided an interface is installed). Once the
system is
Armed
, any intrusion attempt will
Activate
it, sounding the siren and
flashing the lights to attract attention.
Disarming
the system turns off the
protection, allowing normal use of the vehicle.
There are two methods of Arming the security system:
1- The first method is to use the transmitter, by pressing and releasing its “Arm/
Lock” button. The system must not already be in Alarm Valet Mode (page 19-
20), and the vehicle’s ignition switch must be off. Every press of the “Arm/
Lock” button arms the system, even if it is already armed.
2- The second method is Last Door Arming, which configures the system to
automatically arm every time you exit the vehicle. This method of arming is
programmable, and so it may be used or not used as desired.

Upon Arming the System will:
• The siren will chirp once (or three times if a zone is bypassed) unless the silent
arming procedure is followed- see page 14.
• The parking lights will flash once (or three times if a zone is bypassed).
• The doors will lock*.
• The starter interrupt will engage.
• The Status Indicator Light will begin to flash slowly in Red.
Three seconds after arming, the security system becomes fully armed, and will
activate to an alarm condition should an intrusion attempt be detected.
To Arm the System:
