Additionally, Automatic Last Door Arming may entitle you to an insurance
discount. Please note that the previously mentioned Arming By-Pass feature does
not operate with the Automatic Last Door Arming feature. The bypass feature is
designed to operate only when arming the system with the transmitter and all
protected entries must be closed to initiate the Automatic Last Door Arming
sequence. Last Door Arming does not effect the operation of Active Arming.
To prevent the system from automatically arming while the vehicle is being
refueled you have these options: put the system in Valet Mode (page 14), keep your
door open, or turn on your dome light switch so the system detects that your door
is still open. We do not recommend leaving your ignition key turned "on".
Security System Armed And Triggered
While the security system is armed, the LED Status Indicator will be flashing.
Should any intrusion attempt occur, your system will instantly "trigger". Once
triggered, the
security system will respond by:
1) The electronic siren will sound*.
2) The parking lights will flash on and off for the duration.
3) The doors will relock. This feature is so unique that the security system can
detect an open door and wait until the door is closed; at that time the door
re-locks so that the thief cannot easily regain entry.

* The electronic siren features six different tones, and every 5 seconds the siren will change
the tone to generate more attention to the vehicle. The vehicle's horn may be used if desired.
The horn, if used, will honk on and off for 10 seconds, then pause for 5 seconds, repeating
this cycle for the duration of the activated alarm period. This prevents the horn from
overheating. Please ask the installer for details on utilizing the horn.
The siren and the parking lights will stay active for 60 seconds unless you disarm
the system with the transmitter or the Valet Switch. If all protected entries are secure
at the end of 60 seconds, the system will stop and rearm automatically to detect
another entry attempt. If there is a protected entry still open or if an optional sensor
is still in a triggered state at the end of 60 seconds, the system will reactivate for two
more 60 second cycles. In this case the system will stop after a total of 3 minutes
and rearm automatically, while ignoring only the open entry or triggered sensor.
When the entry is closed or the triggered sensor is reset, protection will begin
instantly for the formerly affected circuit.
Once the security system has been activated and reset, the disarming confirmation
will no longer be 2 siren chirps, and the parking lights staying on. Instead, the system
will respond with 4 siren chirps and the parking lights flashing 4 times before
staying on for 30 seconds. The LED Status Light will change to flashing one to four
times between pauses to indicate which protection circuit triggered the system.
These audible and visual indications will remain until the ignition is turned “on”.

Anytime the security system triggers, the LED Status Light will indicate which
zone triggered the system by flashing one to four times, pausing between flashes.
This code will continue to flash, even after disarming. The system can hold two
different violation codes in it's memory, which is cleared by turning the ignition
switch "on".
Safety Disarm/Storm Mode: While the system is activated, i.e. sounding the
siren and flashing the lights, pressing the large transmitter button will disarm the
system only. The system will not chirp twice or illuminate the parking lights, nor
unlock the doors if the system is configured to also operate the door locks. 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, repeat the arm/disarm operation by
pressing and releasing the large transmitter button once, then again. If disarmed
from a panic mode, the normal disarm indications are present, including the
unlocking of the doors.
Disarming The System
Disarming The System Using The Transmitter: While the security system is
in the armed state, pressing and releasing the large transmitter button once will

instantly disarm the system and unlock the doors. If you have the optional unlock
driver's door feature, then upon disarming only the driver's door will unlock, and
if the large transmitter button is pressed again within 5 seconds, or at any time if a
door is open, all of the other doors will unlock.
Disarming is confirmed by the siren chirping twice, and the parking lights
turning on for 30 seconds. However, the lights will turn off instantly if the ignition
switch is turned "on". If the system was triggered and reset while you are away, the
disarm confirmation will change to 4 siren chirps, 4 light flashes, and then the lights
will stay on for 30 seconds. The security system will have this response upon
disarming until the ignition switch is turned "on", which clears the unit's memory.
Automatic Rearming Feature: Should you unknowingly press the transmitter
button, which will result in your system disarming, the system can automatically
rearm itself 90 seconds later and once again lock the doors. This feature is
programmable, and may be turned off.
Automatic Rearming can be paused by opening the door or stopped by turning
"on" the ignition switch. 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. Automatic Rearming is confirmed by a fast flashing LED
Status Indicator after disarming, unless the system was triggered and reset, in which
case a Zone Violation code will flash instead.
