DISARMING THE
SYSTEM
To disarm the system, press DIS-
ARM. The system beeps twice to
confirm that it is disarmed.
Notes:
• The status indicator is off when
the system is disarmed.
• If the valet mode is turned off, the
system chirps and re-arms after
60 seconds if you have not
started the vehicle.
• If the system detected a violation
while you were away, it beeps
three times when you disarm it.
USING THE CAR FINDER
The car finder helps you find your ve-
hicle in a dark or crowded parking lot.
To use the car finder, with the system
armed, press
FINDER . The alarm
beeps 8 times.
SETTING THE SYSTEM’S
OPTIONS
You can adjust the following options:
• Shock Sensor Sensitivity
• Current Sensor (On/Off)
• Valet Mode (On/Off)
Setting the Shock Sensor’s
Sensitivity
The shock sensor’s initial setting is
fine for most situations. To test the
shock sensor, strike your vehicle on
the hood directly over the alarm.
If the shock sensor is too sensitive or
not sensitive enough, follow these
steps to set it to a different level.
1. With the alarm disarmed, hold
down FINDER until the alarm
sounds four tones.
2. Within 2 seconds, strike your
vehicle with as much force as you
want the alarm to respond to. The
alarm sounds three tones. Any
shock equal to or greater than the
setting triggers the alert.
Notes:
• If you do not strike your vehicle
within 2 seconds, the alarm is set
to its highest sensitivity. This
could cause frequent false alerts.
• The shock sensor does not oper-
ate for 8 seconds after the sys-
tem arms.
