• BOLD type indicates Dealer Security mode default settings.

2. Items 6-14

• These options are specific to the vehicle interface and remain as programmed when the system is changed to Dealer mode or Consumer mode.

3. Quick access: To turn on the honk/chirp feature without entering programming; simply turn on the ignition and press and hold the Valet button, the unit will respond with a single honk/chirp when turning the feature ON.

To turn off the honk/chirp feature follow the above steps, the unit will respond with a double honk/chirp when turning the feature off. .

System Testing and Sensor Adjusting

Install the system type according to the wiring diagram on page 1 and then perform the following steps to test for correct operation.

RF Security

Arming

1. Press the button.

2. Doors lock, Lights flash and the horn/siren sounds once.

• For silent arming; press the AUX button prior to pressing the button.

3. Dome light turns off, starter kill becomes active, and the status LED begins flashing.

4. While arming, the system tests the trigger inputs for status. If any trigger inputs are active when arming the horn/siren sounds a second time as a notification, both the onboard impact sensor and the active input are bypassed. The open zone is bypassed until corrected and the impact sensor is bypassed for a maximum of 4 minutes. While bypassed, the active input is indicated by the status LED flashes (see table of zones for LED flashes).

Sensor testing: a. Gently impact the vehicle with increasing intensity to test the pre-trigger level (10 horn/siren sounds). b. Impact that location more heavily to test the full-trigger level (horn/siren/ lights for 30 sec). c. Adjust the sensor pot until the desired levels are obtained

Note: The Nuisance Prevention feature bypasses the sensor after 3 full-triggers; to reset if active, disarm the system and turn the ignition on/off.

5. Protected entry tests:

• Open each door, the horn/siren sounds quickly and then begin the fulltrigger output.

• Open the hood or trunk, or turn on the ignition to immediately begin the full-trigger output.

Note: The Nuisance Prevention feature bypasses an input that stays active for

3 full-triggers; close the input to reset.

The open zone is bypassed until corrected and the impact sensor is bypassed for a maximum of 4 minutes. While bypassed, the active input is indicated by the status LED flashes (see table of zones for LED flashes).

4. The shock sensor is enabled after a one minute delay.

Note: for installations where an Arm Defeat connection is not available the system is disarmed if the ignition is turned on during this one minute delay.

5. Sensor tests, adjustments, and protected entry tests are the same as for an RF

Security System.

Arming defeat

1. Press the driver door lock switch.

2. The system does not arm if the Arm Defeat input wire is connected to the lock switch.
