Safety Disarm/Storm Mode:
While the system is activated, i.e. sounding the
siren and flashing the lights, pressing the “disarm/unlock” button will disarm the
system, but not unlock the doors. This safety feature ensures that the vehicle remain
secure should the system require disarming due to being activated from nuisance or
malicious false sensory inputs, such as typically produced by severe weather
conditions. To remotely unlock the doors if the system is disarmed while activated,
simply repeat the disarm operation by pressing and releasing the “disarm/unlock”
button again. If disarmed from a panic mode, the normal disarm indications are
present, including the unlocking of the doors.
Automatic Rearming Feature:
Automatic Rearming is a programmable feature
which ensures that your system is never inadvertently disarmed. It is possible to
accidentally or unknowingly operate the transmitter from a pocket or purse. You
may not even be aware of an accidental disarming due to the enhanced operating
distance offered by the system’s extended range. Automatic Rearming has the alarm
rearm itself 90 seconds after it is has been disarmed, unless a vehicle door is opened
and the ignition key turned on. Automatic Rearming is confirmed by a fast flashing
Status Light after the disarming, unless the system was triggered, in which case a Zone
Violation code will flash instead.
During the 90 second period, Automatic Rearming can be paused by opening the
door or stopped completely by turning the ignition key "on". Also, Automatic
Rearming can be cancelled by the Safety Disarm/Storm Mode feature; if the system
is disarmed while triggered, Automatic Rearming will not occur.
If the system was activated and reset itself:
The disarming confirmation will
no longer be 2 siren chirps, and the parking lights flashing twice before staying on
with the interior lights. Instead, the system will respond with 4 siren chirps and the
parking and interior lights flashing 4 times before staying on for 30 seconds. The
Status Light will change to flashing two to four times in red between pauses as a “Zone
Violation” code to indicate which protection circuit triggered the system (2 flashes,
hood/trunk; 3 flashes, doors; 4 flashes , impact sensor). These special audible and
visual disarming indications, and Zone Violation code, will remain this way until the
ignition key is turned “on”.
Disarming the System by Emergency Override
Should the transmitter become lost, damaged, or its batteries become exhausted,
the Valet Switch and the vehicle’s ignition key may be used to disarm the system:
Step 1
With the system in the armed condition, enter the vehicle via the driver's
door (be aware that the alarm will trigger when the door is opened).
Off
(

Chirps Excepting Valet Mode
(
press

” button to program
)
Chirps in Valet Mode Only
(
press
“
III
” button to program
)
This feature removes the system’s 1 arming and 2 disarming confirmation chirps.
When this feature is used to remove these chirps, the system will still have 3 chirps
upon arming if a protected zone is violated, and still have 4 chirps upon disarming
if the system was previously activated. Using this feature to turn off the arm and
disarming chirps will also not affect the Prewarning operation, Unauthorized
Transmitter Alert (if used), nor will it affect the chirps used when programming.
The other two settings will have the confirmation chirps operate only when the
system is in Valet Mode, and not otherwise; or, the chirps will operate except when
the system is in Valet Mode.

sequentially pressed, thus making it easy to hear and choose the setting with the
best chirp volume.
This feature operates regardless of how feature #15, “Steady Siren” or “Pulsed
Horn” is set. Feature #15 sets “Steady”; or “Pulsed” as three different timings, for
the activated alarm period output. This feature, #10, affects only the confirmation

Duration you should always check and determine if there are any local anti-
noise or nuisance ordinances in your area, to avoid the possibility of receiving
a violation citation.
