When you press button #1 to arm the alarm,
and the alarm responds with three chirps and
three light flashes, there are two possibilities:
A. Delayed interior lights — If your interior
lights do not immediately turn OFF when
you close your car door (in other words,
your vehicle has delayed interior lights), this
is normal. The alarm should protect all the
openings once the interior lights go OFF.
B. A zone was bypassed — In other words, the
alarm has armed, but a hardwired door is
not protected (either because it is open, or
ZONE BYPASS
because its door switch is broken). If the
bypassed door is later closed, it will be
restored (no siren chirp or light flash).
If your alarm indicates a bypassed zone, find
the cause as soon as possible to ensure your
vehicle is completely protected. For instance, if
your driver's door is not properly closed when
you arm your alarm, a thief may be able to
open any door without setting off the alarm.
NOTE — The three zone bypass confirm chirps
will not sound if chirp OFF is engaged.
However, the parking lights will still flash three
times. (See SILENT ARM / DISARM on page 6).
SENSOR BYPASS
NEXT - Press
Button #2
(within 3
seconds)
The sensors are automatically restored
next time the alarm is armed.
This is useful if you know, based on experi-
ence, that your shock, glass-break, or other
add-on sensor will false trigger, such as when
you park near a construction site or other
harsh environment.
To bypass your alarm's sensors,
1.Press button #1 to arm the alarm. The siren
chirps and the parking lights flash once (three
times if a zone is bypassed) to confirm armed.
2.Within 3 seconds, press button #2.
The siren chirps 3 times and the parking ights
flash 3 times to confirm sensors are bypassed.
FIRST - Press
Button #1
ARMED
When the 30-sec. arming countdown ends, or
when remote control button #1 is pressed to
arm the alarm, the siren chirps and indictor
lights flash once, and the LED starts
flashing to show the alarm is armed.
l If you close the last open door, and the
siren does not chirp and parking lights
do not flash, you know that one or
more doors are not closed properly.
This is a patented Quick and Quiet
Testing (Q.Q.T.™) feature.
It prevents you from thinking your alarm is
armed when it may not be. In this case,
double-check that all the doors, as well
as the bonnet and boot, are closed
properly, and that your vehicle's interior
lights are OFF.
If you cannot locate the problem, but
need to arm the alarm, press button #1
to immediately arm the alarm and
bypass whatever zone is open (see
ZONE BYPASS, below).
NOTE — Under passive arming, you can
force your alarm to arm immediately any
time during the 30-second arming
countdown by pressing remote control
button #1.
Note — There are references to
opening or closing a door throughout
this manual. "Door" also includes
bonnet and boot, if they are protected.
Ask your dealer.
