“SecureCode” allows the user to customize the number of Valet Switch
presses which are required to successfully perform an Emergency Override.
The basic Emergency Override procedure is described on pages 12-
13. Instead of a single “1 press” of the Valet Switch which would be required
in order to perform an Emergency Override, two stages of Valet Switch
presses must be made. In each of the two stages, the Valet Switch will need
to be pressed 1 through 9 times, as programmed by the user. This is the
Emergency Override procedure if the system has programmed with a
customized SecureCode:
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).

Once the system is disarmed, if Alarm Valet Mode is desired, just press
and hold the Valet Switch for 2 seconds to place the system into Valet Mode.
Should a mistake be made entering the SecureCode, after a failed attempt
to achieve SecureCode, the ignition switch must be turned off, then on again
before another attempt is made.
Step 4 After a few seconds, the siren will stop sounding, chirp once, and
then resume sounding.
Step 2 Using the ignition key, turn the vehicle’s ignition switch on.
Step 3 Within 5 seconds press and release the Valet Switch the same
number of times that have been programmed for stage #1.
Step 5 Now, within 5 seconds press and release the Valet Switch the same
number of times that have been programmed for stage #2. Within
a few seconds the siren will stop sounding, and the unit will disarm.
In addition to Emergency Override, if any of the three anti-carjacking
features are utilized, a correct customized SecureCode would also be
required to turn off anti-carjacking once it has become fully activated. How
to program your own customized SecureCode is explained on page 30.
Should two failed SecureCode attempts be made, the system will ignore
any further presses of the Valet Switch for two minutes.
Step 2
Turning the ignition back on.

Anti-Carjacking Protection
The Omega MAX-EDP features three separate Anti-Carjacking protection
features, whose operation may be selectively activated by the ignition, by
an open door, or by the transmitter. All three are programmable, and must
be turned on to operate. Once activated, the user has 53 seconds to cancel
the Anti-Carjacking protection process by pressing the Valet Switch once.
If Anti-Carjacking is not cancelled, 53 seconds after being activated the
siren will begin to chirp for 7 seconds to alert the user that the system is
about to enter into an alarm condition. The Valet Switch may still be pressed
once during this period to cancel the Anti-Carjacking process.
If the Anti-Carjacking process is not cancelled before the 60 second
countdown expires, the system will enter an alarm condition, sounding the
siren and flashing the parking lights. 30 seconds after this occurs, or
should the ignition be turned off in the meantime, the stater interrupt will
engage. Once the system enters the alarm condition, it will not respond
to the transmitter, nor will the system reset automatically after 60 seconds,
and it can only be disengaged by:
Step 1
Turning the vehicle’s ignition off.
The three types of Anti-Carjacking protection features are:
Anti-Carjacking protection activated using a transmitter has the process
start by pressing and holding the
“
OPTION
”
and red “panic” buttons together
for 3 seconds, but only if the vehicle’s ignition is on. The Valet Switch must
be pressed within 60 seconds after this is done to cancel Anti-Carjacking.
This is User Programmable Feature #19 27,28, and 36).
Anti-Carjacking protection activated an open door has the process start
should a door be opened after the vehicle is started and the engine is
running. The Valet Switch must be pressed within 60 seconds after the door
is opened to cancel Anti-Carjacking. This is User Programmable Feature
#18 (see pages 27,28, and 36).
Anti-Carjacking protection activated by the vehicle’s ignition has the
process start every time the vehicle’s ignition is turned on. The Valet Switch
must be pressed within 60 seconds every time the vehicle is started to
cancel Anti-Carjacking. This is User Programmable Feature #17 (see
pages 27,28, and 35).
Step 3
Within 5 seconds, perform an Emergency Override using the Valet
Switch. If the SecureCode has been customized, the correct
number of Valet Switch presses must be made.
