OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ARMING
To arm the alarm and lock the doors, press the Lock button of your Factory Keyless Remote Control. The 883
OEM system will sense the Door Lock signal and Arm. The lights will flash once, the vehicle horn or siren will
chirp once. After 3 seconds, the LED indicator will begin flashing slowly and Immobilizer circuits become active.
This system is now armed and ready to protect the vehicle.
ALARM TRIGGERING:
If there is an intrusion into the vehicle or hard impact to the body the alarm will sound which consists of flashing
lights and siren or pulsing car horn for 30 seconds. After the 30 second alarm cycle duration the system will stop,
but is still armed. LED will begin flashing rapidly indicating the alarm has been triggered.
DISARMING:
To disarm the CS-883 OEM, press the Unlock button of your Factory Keyless Remote. The CS-883 OEM system
will sense the Door Unlock signal and Disarm. The lights will flash twice and the vehicle horn or siren will chirp
twice. The LED will stop flashing. If the system was tripped in your absence, then the siren or horn will chirp 4
times and the lights will flash 4 times. If your hear 4 chirps/flashes, we recommend inspecting your vehicle for a
theft attempt or damage.
PASSIVE ARMING MODE (Programmable Option)
When programmed for Passive (Automatic Last Door Arming) the CS-883 will arm itself 30 Seconds after the
ignition is turned off and the last door has been closed. If a door is reopened, the system will wait for the door to
close before arming. Enabling this option may entitle you to an insurance discount. Check with your provider.
DUAL-STAGE SHOCK PROTECTION
If a low-level shock to the vehicle body is detected, the pre-warning sensor activates sounding 5 siren/horn chirp
and one light flash. If a hard impact to the vehicle occurs, the system will trigger for 30 seconds. Adjust the
shock sensor as needed by turning the control knob clockwise to increase sensitivity and counter-clockwise to
decrease sensitivity.
EMERGENCY OVERRIDE/DISARM
If the CS-883 system is armed and you have lost your Factory Keyless Remote or it stops working, you will have
to perform an emergency override. Enter your vehicle manually with the key, (this will trip the alarm) turn the
Ignition ON, and press override/program button 5 times within 8 seconds to disarm the system. The system will
chirp/flash 4 times when disarmed.
