Attempted Theft Alert:
If the horn chirps four times when you disarm your security system, this indicates
that the alarm was tripped while you were away from your vehicle. You will also
notice that the dash mounted status LED
is also flashing rapidly at that time.
After disarming the system, enter the
vehicle and press the override/
programming button before turning the
ignition key on to identify the cause of
the alarm trip. The horn will chirp a
number of times, indicating which zone
in the chart below tripped the alarm.

Changing the Remote Control Batteries:
The (2) 3-volt lithium batteries supplied in your remote control should last
approximately one year, depending on usage. When the batteries begin to weaken,
you will notice a decrease in range, or the distance from your vehicle that your
remote transmitter will operate. Follow the instructions below to change the remote
transmitter batteries.
1. Insert the edge of a coin into the slot at the bottom of the remote control. Twist
the coin to pry the remote control halves apart.
2. Remove the old batteries and replace with new ones. Be sure to observe the (+)
sign on the battery and position it facing upward.
3. Carefully snap the case halves back together, then test the remote control.
It is not necessary to reprogram the remote control after changing the
battery.
