Your System Congratulations on the purchase of your state-of-the-art vehicle security system. This system has been designed to provide years of trouble-free operation. Due to the complexity of this system, it must be installed by an authorized dealer only. Installation of this product by anyone other than an authorized dealer voids the warranty. All dealers are provided with preprinted dealer certificates to verify that they are authorized.
Transmitter Functions The receiver uses a computer-based Learn Routine to learn the transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any remote transmitter button, or combination of buttons, to any receiver function. The transmitter 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 transmitter.
Using Your System Arming You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing of your trans- mitter 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.
When armed, your vehicle is protected in the following ways: ■ Light impacts will trigger the Warn Away® signal. When triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash for a few seconds. ■ Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The trigger sequence is 30 seconds of constant siren and flashing parking lights. ■ If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast.
Disarming To turn off, or disarm the system, press again. You will hear two chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If power locks are controlled by the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps either four or five times when disarming, see Diagnostics section. This is called Tamper Alert. Your system includes a High Security Disarm feature.
To disarm without a transmitter: Turn on the ignition. Push the Valet® switch within 15 seconds. The system should now disarm. If it does DRW-35 not, you may have waited too long, so turn the ignition off and on and try again. Silent Mode To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use Silent Mode™. Simply press briefly before arming or disarming, and the con- firmation chirp(s) will be eliminated for that one operation only.
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 DRW-35 seconds.
Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry Your system has DEI's Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry (NPC™). It prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc. Here's how it works: Let's say the alarm triggers three times. Each time, the same sensor or switch is triggering the alarm. The three triggers are within 60 minutes of each other. NPC will interpret this pattern of triggers as false alarms.
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.
chirps are heard, a zone was triggered so many times that Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry has bypassed that zone. In either case, the Status LED will indicate which zone was involved (see Table of Zones section). The system will retain this information in its memory, and chirp four or five times each time it is disarmed, until the next time the ignition key is turned on. Table of Zones The zone number is the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify that input.
Code-Hopping ™ 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 synchronized with the control unit even if you use the remote control out of range of the vehicle.
■ Arming/disarming confirmation chirps on or off. ■ Passive door locking (with passive arming) or active door locking (only when arming with the transmitter). This feature only works if passive arming has been selected for step one. ■ The ignition-switch-controlled door-locking feature on or off. With this feature on, the doors will lock 3 seconds after the key is turned on, and unlock when the key is turned off. NOTE: If the door is open when the ignition is turned on, the doors will not lock.
even if a protected entry has been left open. If a door has accidentally been left ajar when leaving the vehicle, forced passive arming ensures that the system will arm in one hour. NOTE: When forced passive arming occurs, the entry point that has been left open, and anything connected to the same zone, is bypassed and cannot trigger the system. The remaining inputs to the system are fully operational. ■ Siren tones and chirp volume.
Input: A physical connection to the system. An input can be provided by a sensor, pinswitch or to existing systems in the vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights. LED: Red light mounted somewhere in the vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system. It is also used to report triggers and faults in the system or sensors. Shock Sensor: This system is packaged with a Doubleguard® Shock Sensor. This sensor is designed to pick up impacts to the vehicle or glass.
Zone: A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognize as unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular zone. Often two or more inputs may share the same zone. 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 508D “radar” sensor.
proprietary acoustic software to determine if the glass has been struck. Power Trunk Release: The auxiliary output of the system can operate a factory power release for the vehicle’s trunk or hatch. (An optional relay may be required.) If the factory release is not power-activated, the DEI's 522T trunk-release solenoid can often be added. Power Locks: This system offers lock outputs that can control some manufacturers' power door lock systems. For other systems, additional parts may be required.

✂ QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE: Arming Cut along dotted line and fold for a quick and easy reference to keep in your purse or wallet. ■ Press of your transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short chirp, and the parking lights will flash once. If the vehicle’s power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will lock. Arming While Driving ■ Press on your transmitter while the vehicle is running. The system will chirp once and then once more to indicate that the ignition is on.
