Built-in vehicle recovery/anti-carjacking circuitry
IntelliGuard 900-IQ’s built-in BlackJax circuitry provides a safe and effective means of
recovering your vehicle after a theft or carjacking.
VERY IMPORTANT:
The factory setting for the anti-carjacking feature
is OFF. Once you are familiar with the following, we suggest you turn
this feature ON (see pages 21-25). When anti-carjacking is on, each
time you begin driving you MUST enter your disarming code via the
PlainView switch on the dashboard or console (unless the system is in
valet mode). You may turn this feature on or off any time.
Your secret disarming code tells the system that the car is being driven by an authorized
person. Also, if you open your car door at any point (as would occur in a carjacking
attempt), you must again enter your secret code. Entering your code is simple and easy.
Definitions
Digit:
A digit is defined as any number from 1 to 9, inclusive.
Disarming code:
A disarming code may be 1 to 3 digits:
A 1-digit code = X = any number between 1-9
A 2-digit code = XY = any number between 11-99 (excluding numbers with zeros)
A 3-digit code = XYZ = any number between 111-999 (excluding numbers with zeros)
Remember, no code can have a zero.
PlainView switch:
A rocker switch mounted on the dashboard or console. The switch
has three positions: 1.) Latched 2.) Center 3.) Spring-loaded momentary. When you
press the latched side, the switch remains in its pressed position. When you press the
momentary side, the switch bounces back to the center position. Each time you drive
your car, you must enter your secret disarming code via the PlainView switch.
Entering a digit:
To enter a digit, you tap (press and release) on the momentary side of
the PlainView switch the number of times corresponding to the numeral of the digit to
be entered, followed by pressing to the latched side, then returning the switch to its
center position.
Entering a code:
If your code has only one digit, enter the code as described in
“Entering a digit.” If your code has more than one digit, just repeat the above for each
digit of your code.
Your secret disarming code
Unless the system is in valet mode (see page 15), within 20 seconds after you switch on
the ignition and press the brake (or open a door while the engine is running), you must
enter your secret disarming code to let the system know it is you who is driving. Your
code will be a 1-to-3-digit number of your choosing. Each digit can be any number from
1 to 9, (i.e. the code can be any number between 1 and 999, except those that contain a
zero).
Your system’s factory-set disarming code is the single digit “2.”
