using your system manual (active) arming The factory default is active arming. In this mode you can activate, or arm, the system by locking the doors with your factory keyless entry transmitter. When the system arms, you will hear a short horn honk and see the parking lights flash once. While the system is armed, the status LED will flash about twice a second, showing that the system is actively protecting your vehicle.
note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switchprotected trunk or hood) is open, the system will not passively arm. Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over. armed protection When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows: z Light impacts to your vehicle will trigger the warn away signal. The system will pulse the horn and flash the parking lights for a few seconds. z Heavy impacts will trigger the system.
disarming To disarm the system, unlock the doors using your factory keyless transmitter. The horn will sound twice, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the horn sounds either four or five times when disarming, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert. disarming without a transmitter This feature allows you to override the system without the transmitter should it be lost, damaged or disabled.

This ensures that a sensor that is continuously triggering will remain bypassed. Doors are covered 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.
