What is included ■ The control module ■ A pair of two-button transmitters ■ A Stinger® DoubleGuard® dual-output shock sensor ■ The Revenger® Soft Chirp® six-tone programmable siren ■ The red Status LED indicator light ■ A push-button Valet® switch ■ Your warranty card ■ FailSafe® starter kill (Ready feature, may require additional labor). CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase of a state-of-the-art vehicle security system. This system has been designed to provide years of troublefree operation.
Transmitter Channels LED Button I Button II Button III Channel I The arm/disarm and panic functions, are usually controlled by Button I. Channel II The Silent Mode™/trunk release function, is usually controlled by Button II. Silent Mode™ and Remote Valet® work by pressing button II for less than one second. Trunk release requires you to press Button II for 1.5 seconds. Channel III (for options) Usually controlled by pressing Buttons I and II at the same time.
Using Your System Arming You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing button I of 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. While the system is armed, the Status LED will flash about twice a second, showing that the system is actively protecting your vehicle.
to disarm the system with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door while the system is armed, while still providing instant response (even if the door is immediately closed). • Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage response as opening a door. • The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking. Arming While Driving Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle! Simply press button I on your transmitter while the vehicle is running.
to check the vehicle visually. The trigger will stop, but the vehicle will remain protected. To disarm with the transmitter during a trigger, press Button I on your transmitter. The siren will stop sounding. Next press Button I once more and the system will chirp four or five times (reporting the trigger) and disarm. Disarming Without a Transmitter This feature allows you to disarm the system without the transmitter should it be lost, damaged or disabled.
Valet® Mode You can prevent your system from automatically arming and triggering by using Valet® Mode. This is very useful when washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet® Mode, the system will not arm, even with the transmitter, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will work normally. To enter or exit Valet® Mode with the Valet® switch: Turn ignition to "run" position, then turn to "off" position. Press and release the Valet® switch within 10 seconds.
trigger the system while it is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures that a sensor that continuously triggers will remain bypassed. Doors are covered by NPC™ differently: If the alarm is triggered by an open door for three full cycles (one and one half minutes), the doors will be bypassed until the trigger ceases.
Diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence. Arming Diagnostics If the system is armed with an input active (door open, sensor triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time a few seconds later.
Table of Zones The zone number is the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify that input. The standard input assignments are listed below, along with spaces to write in any optional sensors or switches you have had installed.
Code Hopping™ Explained The receiver and transmitters each use a mathematical formula called an algorithm to change their code each time the transmitter is used. This technology has been developed to increase the security of the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes should be. This helps to keep the transmitter “in synch” with the control unit even if you use the remote control out of range of the vehicle.
NOTE: If the door is open when the ignition is turned on, the doors will not lock. • Panic mode enabled/disabled with the ignition on. (Some states have laws against siren capability in a moving vehicle). • Automatic Engine Disable (AED) on or off. The purpose of the feature is to protect the vehicle from being stolen at all times, regardless of whether or not the alarm is armed. If AED is programmed on, the starter of the vehicle will be disabled 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off.
Vehicle Recovery System (VRS®)* The optional Vehicle Recovery System feature is designed to ensure that any unauthorized user of your vehicle (even if using your keys and remote control) will not be able to permanently separate you from your vehicle. The VRS® feature cannot prevent a carjacking attempt, however, it does ensure that if your vehicle is taken by an unauthorized user, it will be disabled (after several progressive warnings) as safely as possible.
Arming the VRS® To arm the VRS®, push the button once. This can be done before driving or while driving the vehicle. Once the system is armed, it will go into its triggered sequence (see below) if any door is opened and closed. If you are forced from the vehicle the system will trigger as the door will be opened and closed as you leave the vehicle. This is how the system works to combat intersection ® carjacking. If ordered from the vehicle, you may press the VRS button before exiting.
From this point on, when the ignition key is turned off, the VRS® will immediately turn on the FailSafe® starter kill. This will prevent the vehicle from being restarted, thus immobilizing it at that spot. Three minutes after the constant siren output begins, the flashing parking lights and the siren will stop. The starter kill ® will remain active until the VRS system is disarmed.
Glossary of Terms Control Unit The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden underneath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the alarm's functions. FailSafe® Starter Kill An automatic switch controlled by the security system which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from cranking when the system is disarmed, in valet mode, or should the starter kill switch itself fail.
Security & Convenience Expansions Here we have listed only some of the many expansion options available. Please consult your dealer for a complete explanation of all the options available to you. Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is established by the 508T “radar” sensor.Your system can react to any intrusions into this field with the triggered sequence.

QUICK REFERENCE OPERATING CARD: Arming ▼ You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing Button I of your transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short chirp, and see the parking lights flash once. Arming While Driving ▼ Press Button I on your transmitter while the vehicle is running. The system will chirp once and then once more to indicate that the ignition is on.
