when using the remote transmitter. To access the battery for replacement, remove the rear cover of the remote with a small, flat-blade screwdriver. Your Warranty Your warranty card must be returned and the barcode serial number must not be removed. If the warranty card is not returned, no warranty will be honored on your unit. It is also necessary to keep your proof of purchase, which reflects that the product was installed by an authorized dealer. Make sure you receive the warranty card from your dealer.
Transmitter Functions This system is programmable, making it possible to assign any transmitter button to any specific receiver function. The remote initially comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also be customized by an authorized dealer. The buttons in all of the instructions in this manual correspond to a Standard Configuration remote. Standard Configuration Button The arm/disarm/panic functions are usually controlled by .
Using Your System The transmitter buttons indicated in this manual correspond to a standard configuration transmitter, unless otherwise specified. Arming You can arm the security system by pressing for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound (chirp) and the parking lights will flash once. If the power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will also lock.
time a sensor is triggered during the Passive Arming countdown, the countdown starts over. Arming your security system protects your vehicle to the following degrees: ■ Light impacts trigger a warn-away response, causing the siren to chirp and the parking lights to flash for a few seconds. ■ Heavy impacts trip a trigger sequence, which consists of the siren sounding continuously and the parking lights flashing for 30 seconds.
disarming indicates Tamper Alert, which is described in the Diagnostics section of this guide. Disarming Without a Transmitter If your transmitter is lost or damaged, you can manually disarm your vehicle security system. To disarm the system without a transmitter, you must have the vehicle's ignition key and know where the Valet switch is located. Be sure to check with your installer at the time of installation for the location of the Valet switch.
Remote-Controlled Silent Arm/Disarm Use remote-controlled silent arm/disarm to temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps by briefly pressing before either arming or disarming. The confirmation chirp(s) will then be eliminated for that one operation only. To permanently turn off the arm and disarm chirps, contact your installation dealer. NOTE: The warn-away response to lighter impacts is bypassed if the system is armed using remote-controlled silent arm/disarm.
Remote-Controlled Valet You can also enter or exit Valet Mode by using the remote transmitter: 1. Open any vehicle door. 2. Press 3. Press 4. Press . . again. The LED system status indicator will light solidly if you have entered Valet Mode and will turn off if you have exited Valet Mode. Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry Your security system has Nuisance Prevention Circuitry™ (NPC™) to prevent annoying false alarms.
The vehicle doors are protected differently by NPC™. If your security system is triggered by an open door for three, full 30-second cycles (one and one half minutes), the system will bypass the doors until the trigger ceases. NOTE: Arming and disarming the system does not reset the NPC™. The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are for that zone not to be triggered for 60 minutes or to turn the ignition key on.
ceases, the system will resume normal monitoring. For example, if your vehicle has an interior light exit delay and you arm the system before the light turns off, you may hear a Bypass Notification chirp. Three seconds after the light turns off, however, normal monitoring resumes. NOTE: Bypass Notification does not occur when the system is in remotecontrolled silent arm/disarm mode or if the chirps have been programmed not to sound.
ZONE (Number of LED Flashes) DESCRIPTION 1 Instant trigger for optional sensor, hood or trunk pins 2 A heavier impact detected by the on-board impact sensor 3 Door switch trigger 5 Ignition trigger DEALER-INSTALLED OPTIONS NOTE: The LED does not report when the warn-away response has been activated; it only reports triggered sequences. Stealth Coding Technology ™ The receiver and transmitter use mathematical formulas called algorithms to change their codes each time the transmitter is used.
High Frequency Your system transmits and receives at 434 MHz. This provides a cleaner spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal. Enjoy a phenomenal increase in range, even in areas with high radio interference. Programming Options Programming options control your system's normal, operational set-up. Most options do not require additional parts, but some may require installation labor.
■ Ignition controlled door lock feature, on or off. With this feature on, the doors will lock three seconds after the ignition key is turned on, and unlock when the ignition is turned off. The system also prevents the doors from locking when the ignition is turned on while any vehicle door is open. Security & Convenience Expansions Listed below are some of the many expansion options available for use with your system. Please consult your dealer for a detailed explanation of all the available options.
Power Locks: This system offers lock outputs that can control some manufacturers' power door lock systems. For other systems, additional parts may be required. Power Trunk Release: The output of the system can operate a factory power release for the vehicle's trunk or hatch. An optional relay is required. If the factory release is not power-activated, then DEI's 522T trunk release solenoid can be added in most cases.
Installation Options Installation options may require additional parts or labor. Please consult your dealer. Interior Light Illumination: The interior domelight can be configured to illuminate for 30 seconds after the alarm is disarmed. If the system is rearmed during that 30-second period, the interior light illumination will terminate until the alarm is disarmed again. This option may require a relay to be added to some vehicles. Glossary of Terms Control Module: The "brain" of your security system.
Input: Any physical connection to the security system. An input can be provided through a sensor, pinswitch or by existing systems in the vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights. LED: A red light mounted inside the vehicle, at a location determined by the installer. The LED indicates the status of your system and also reports triggers and faults in the system or sensors. Siren: A noise generating device, usually installed in the engine compartment of the vehicle.
✂ QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE ■ Press on your transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound, or chirp, and see the parking lights flash once. If the vehicle's power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will lock. Disarming: ■ Press again. You will hear two chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will unlock. Disarming without a transmitter: ■ Turn on the ignition.
