Using Your System
The buttons described in all instructions in this manual correspond
to a standard configuration transmitter, unless otherwise specified.
You can arm the security system by pressing for one second.
When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound (chirp)
and the parking lights will flash once. If the power door locks are
controlled by the system, the doors will also lock. Once armed, the
status LED will flash once per second to indicate that the system
is actively protecting your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after
arming and notice that the status LED is flashing in a grouped pat-
tern, this signals Bypass Notification. Bypass Notification is
described in detail in the Diagnostics section of this manual.
Your security system can also be programmed for Passive Arming.
With Passive Arming, the system automatically arms itself 30 sec-
onds after the ignition has been turned off and the last door has
been closed. During the 30-second Passive Arming countdown, the
status LED will flash twice as fast as it does when the system is
armed. If the system is programmed for Passive Arming, care must
be taken to prevent the keys from being locked in the vehicle.
NOTE: If any protected entry point, such as a door or switch-protected
trunk or hood, is open, Passive Arming will not engage. Additionally, each
time a sensor is triggered during the Passive Arming countdown, the
countdown starts over.
