ARMING AND LOCKING DOORS
PASSIVE ARM MODE
In
Passive Arming Mode
, the system will arm itself automatically after the completion of a 35 second arming delay (LED
flashes quickly) initiated after the last door of the vehicle is closed. Therefore,
you do not need to arm the system.
The
LED
indicator
flashes
slowly
when the system is armed. However, y
ou must lock your doors manually when leaving the vehicle
.
When leaving your vehicle, perform the following:
1. Turn the Key switch OFF. The LED remains OFF.
2. Unlock if required and open the doors.
3. Once all doors are closed after exiting the vehicle, the LED will begin to flash quickly, indicating that passive arming has
begun.
Also, as long as a door is opened or if a door is opened and remains open before the completion of the arming delay
the system
will not arm
. Once the doors are closed the arming delay will begin again.
If you want to stay in the vehicle for a certain period of time, it is recommended to have your key switch in the ON position to
avoid a situation were the system arms after somebody leaves the vehicle. While your key is in the
ON
position, the system
will not arm and the LED stays OFF.
ACTIVE ARM MODE
To arm the system, and lock your doors (if you have this option)
,
press the Lock button
on your remote until the
lights flashes
once
in confirmation. Notice that the siren will confirm the system arming by chirping once and that the
LED indicator
flashes slowly
to confirm the armed state. (See Chirp delete to bypass the chirping effect).
DISARMING AND UNLOCKING DOORS
PASSIVE ARM MODE
If the system was programmed in
Passive Mode,
to
disarm the system and unlock the doors, press and hold the Unlock
button
until the
siren chirps twice
in confirmation. Notice also that the parking lights confirm the system disarming by
flashing twice. Once the system is disarmed, you have to open a door within a 35 seconds delay or else
the system will rearm
(LED flashing slowly)
and you set off an alarm. If the entry delay expires, you should disarm the vehicle by pressing Unlock
button to enter the vehicle.
Once inside the vehicle, you have up to 35 seconds to
turn the key switch to the ON position
or start the car to prevent the
system from re-arming again. If this is not done, your system will re-arm
(LED flashing slowly)
and if your system has a
starter kill, you will not be able to start the car. If this situation occurs, you need to disarm the car with the Unlock button.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If your car is not equipped with a starter kill, you should not start the vehicle if the car is armed
because you may cause a false alarm.
ACTIVE ARM MODE
In Active Arming Mode, to
disarm the system, unlock the doors and deactivate the starter kill if installed, press and hold
Lock button
until the
siren chirp twice
in confirmation. Notice also that the parking lights confirm the system disarming by
flashing twice.
Finally, note that if an
alarm condition occurs and the siren is on, disarming the system will end the alarm condition.
First press mutes siren and second press disarms system.
PANIC MODE
In a panic situation, you can activate the panic mode that disables the valet mode, shuts down the engine, unlocks the doors,
disarms the starter kill and sounds the siren for 1 minute. You can activate the panic mode by
pressing Lock button for
approximately 4 seconds
until the siren goes ON and the parking light flash.
TEMPORARY CHIRP DELETE
If you want to
avoid the siren chirps
in a quiet neighborhood when arming or disarming the system,
press TRUNK
until you
see a parking lights flash. Then
within 3 seconds, press
LOCK or UNLOCK to arm or disarm the vehicle without generating
the siren chirps. Note that your installer could program the Chirp disable feature, so that you could disable the chirps
permanently.
Note that chirps will still occur when arming and a zone is unprotected or when disarming and an entry was attempted.
