Owner’sManual
IMPORTANT ! In order to provide you with the highest level of security to your
vehicle, this system is equipped with selectable manual override circuitry. It is
possible that you will need to override you security system if the transmitter
becomes lost, or inoperative due to battery failure. Reading the sections on
"Manually Overriding Your System" is necessary to fully understand the procedure
required to enable your vehicle in such situations. In addition, the chart on the last
page of this manual has a section for the particular features and options installed
in your vehicle as well as the override method selected. Although the default
mode is "Valet Switch" operation, the system can be configured for "Custom
Code" operation for enhanced security. Confirm the override mode selected on

CAUTION! Be certain that the vehicle is outdoors before using this or any remote
vehicle starting device. A running engine produces dangerous car-
bon monoxide fumes which can be harmful or fatal if prolonged expo-
sure occurs. DO NOT remote start the vehicle if it is garaged.
YOUR“ANTICODEGRABBING“TRANSMITTERS
The transmitters included with your new security system use the most advanced
and secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current automo-
tive security system. Some of today’s sophisticated auto thieves use a device known
as a code grabber, which will receive and store the signal from your keychain
transmitter, and re transmit at a later time to disarm your system.
Your Keeloq Code Hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the
button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then retransmits your signal, the alarm
system
will not respond.

Page3
If your transmitter button is pressed more than fifty times while it is out of range of
the vehicle (children playing with your keys), the transmitter will not operate when
you return to the vehicle, and will need to be re aligned to the receiver. To do this,
simply press button 1 two times within a one second time period. The system will
now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed.
NOTE: This system is custom configurable and can be set up to operate with a
number of options controlled from any transmitter button or button com-
bination. For reference, we will describe operation assuming that your
system is programmed for separate lock and unlock buttons. Also refer-
ence will be made to the icons as shown on the buttons below.
NOTE: Concerning the LCD based remote, where lock is mentioned, use button
#1, where unlock is mentioned, use button #2, where trunk/start is mentioned,
use button #3. The Red Button is used to acquire status of the system.
See "System Status" described later in this manual.
Consult your installation center if your system has been configured differently.
NOTE: Your system has the option of using a siren, the vehicle horn, or both for
the sounding device. Where the siren is referenced below, the horn or
both may in fact chirp, or beep.

oDoors Lock - Optional
Door locking during passive arming is a selectable feature.
The alarm can be programmed to allow the doors to lock only
when arming using the keychain transmitter, and they
will not automatically lock during passive arming.
PROTECTIONWHILE THESYSTEMISARMED
þOpening any protected door, hood, or trunk lid will cause the alarm to
immediately sound. The alarm will continue to sound for 30 seconds,
then stop and continue to monitor all protected entry points. If the thief left
a door opened, the alarm will sound for six 30 second cycles, remain
armed and ignore that triggered zone.
þWhenever the system is armed, the red dash mounted LED indicator will
slowly flash. This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The
LED is a very low current bulb, and will not cause the vehicle’s battery to
drain, even when left unattended for extended periods.
þWhenever the system is triggered, the vehicle’s parking lights will flash for
the full 30 second alarm cycle, attracting visual attention to the vehicle.
þOptional - Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle’s starting circuit will
be bypassed. If the thief should choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can
not be started.
þAny mild impact to the vehicle’s glass will cause the alarm to sound a
short series of warning tones.
þAny strong impact to the vehicle’s glass will cause the alarm to trigger for
the full 30 second alarm cycle.
Note: If the optional interior illumination circuit was installed, the interior light will
flash as well for the full 30 second alarm cycle.

If during a triggered state, you wish to shut off the siren without disarming your security
system, simply press and release any transmitter button other than the Unlock/Disarm
button. This action will turn off the siren yet leave the vehicle fully armed and protected.
Thisfeatureisparticularlyusefulif you are awareofchildrenplayingnearyourvehiclethat
may accidently trigger your security system. In this case you can cancel the siren
sounding without disarming your alarm.
INTRUSIONWARNINGSIGNALS
This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away
from the vehicle. If an intrusion attempt has occurred, the siren will chirp 4 times and the
parking lights will flash 3 times when disarming the system. Enter the vehicle and
observe the red dash mounted LED to identify which zone was triggered.
If the LED is flashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then an intru-
sion attempt was made to the shock sensor, or an accessory triggering device
that may have been added to the system.
If the LED is flashing two times...pause...two times...pause...etc., then an
intrusion attempt was made to a hood or trunk pin switch that was added to the
system, or to a light activated entry point if the alarm was installed using the
voltage sensing feature.
If the LED is flashing three times...pause...three times...pause...etc., then an
intrusion attempt was made through one of the vehicle’s doors.
These intrusion warning indicators are stored in the system’s memory, and will only be
erased when the ignition key is turned on.
VALETSWITCH
The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating the
need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the
system is in valet mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however the remote panic
feature and remote door locks will remain operational. In addition, the parking lights will
flash to indicate locking and unlocking. To use the valet mode, the system must first be
disarmed either by using your keychain transmitter, or by activating your personalized
manual override code.
1. Enter the vehicle, and turn the ignition key to the on position.
2. Press and hold the valet push-button switch until the dash mounted LED
turns on solid. The system will remain in the valet mode.
3. To return to normal operation, press and release the push-button switch any
time the ignition is on.
NOTE: Always remember to return the system to normal operation. This will ensure
that the vehicle remains protected at all times.

MANUALLYOVERRIDINGYOURSYSTEM:
USINGTHEVALET SWITCHMANUAL OVERRIDE
Your Security System can be disarmed without the use of the keychain transmitter.
This is necessary, since you will need the ability to operate your vehicle if the
transmitter is lost or its battery fails. If your system has been selected for Valet
Switch manual override as indicated on the last page of this manual, to bypass
the alarm system;
1. Open the vehicle door. The alarm will sound.
2. Turn the ignition key to the on position.
3. Within 5 seconds, press and release the valet push-button switch.
The alarm system will stop sounding and enter the (bypass) mode. You can now
start and operate the vehicle normally.
Typically this override mode is used only if the transmitter has become inopera-
tive.
Programming Your Custom Override Code:
Unlike override switches easily found, and defeated, this security system allows
the consumer to program a personal override code, offering a higher level of
security. To take advantage of this option, programmable feature # 10 must be
selected for the Custom Code Option. Consult your installation center for
programming details. The system comes from the factory with a pre-programmed
override code of 11. To change this default override code, do the following:
1. Disarm the system by use of the transmitter, or by use of the emergency
override sequence. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet/override switch, 3 times.
3. Within 10 seconds turn the ignition switch off, on, off, on, off, on.
(The siren or horn will beep and the lights will flash one time.)
4. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen 10ths digit by pressing and
releasing the push-button switch from 1up to 9 times.
5. Within 10 seconds of the last entered 10ths digit, turn the ignition switch off
then on.
6. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen units digit by pressing and
releasing the push-button switch from 1 up to 9 times.
7. Finish by turning the ignition switch to the off position.
If the new code was accepted, the unit will report back the newly entered code, by
flashing the LED, first indicating the 10ths digit, pause and then the units digit.
The unit will report the new code three times with a one second pause between
each code, then the system will begin arming. If the LED flash pattern
reports the previously stored code, the new code was not entered correctly. Please
repeat steps 1 through 7 above considering the following.
NOTE: Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not
recognize a 0 (Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.
NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire, or if the ignition switch is turned off for
more then 5 seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert
back to the last successfully stored code.

Custom Code Programming Example:
To Change the code from the factory preassigned code of 11 to “52” you would do
the following:
1. Disarm the system by use of the transmitter, or by use of the emergency
override sequence.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
3. Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet/override switch, 3 times.
4. Within 10 seconds turn the ignition switch off, on, off, on, off, on.
(The siren or horn will beep and the lights will flash one time.)
5. Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the push-button switch to set
the tenths digit.
(As per the example, press and release 5 times to set the tenths digit to 5)
6. Within 10 seconds of the last press of the push-button, turn the ignition switch
off then on.
7. Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the push-button switch to set
the units digit.
(As per the example, press and release 2 times to set the units digit to 2).
8. Turn the ignition switch to the off position. Immediately observe the LED flash
pattern.
You will note the LED flashing five times, pause, and then flash two times, pause.
This pattern will be repeated three times indicating the new code (52) has been
accepted and stored in memory.
NOTE: If after step 7, the LED flashes a code other than what was just entered,
this indicates that the code has not been changed. You will have to repeat
steps 1 through 7 above being certain to note the following:
Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not recognize a 0
(Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.
NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire, or if the ignition switch is turned off for
more then 5 seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert
back to the last successfully stored code.
MANUALLYOVERRIDINGYOURSYSTEM:
USINGTHECUSTOMCODEOVERRIDE
Assuming the override code programmed has not been changed, and the default
override code of 11 is in the system's memory.
1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition switch to the on position.
Note: The siren will sound.
2. Within 5 seconds, press and release the push-button switch 1 time.
3. Within 5 seconds, turn the ignition switch off then on.
4. Within 5 seconds, press and release the push-button switch 1 time.
5. Turn the ignition switch off then on and start the vehicle.
Note: If you have changed the programmed override code then substitute your
new code tenths for step 2 above, and units for step 5 above.

ELIMINATINGTHE NORMALARM /DISARM CHIRPS
As explained earlier in the manual, you can eliminate the chirps selectively any
time you arm or disarm the system simply by holding the ARM or DISARM button
for two seconds. If you find the normal arming and disarming chirps annoying,
they can be turned off permanently, eliminating the need to hold the ARM / DIS-
ARM button for 2 seconds. To do this,
1. Turn the ignition key on then off.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release valet switch three times.
3. If the chirps were on before you started, then you will hear two chirps indicat-
ing they have been turned off.
If the chirps were off before you started, then you will hear one chirp indicating
they have been turned on.
NOTE: Whenever the chirps are bypassed, the 4-chirp intrusion indicator
and 3 chirp defective zone indicator will always operate. Since these are
important warnings to you that something has happened, they cannot be
eliminated.
REMOTEPANICOPERATION
The Lock or Unlock button on your keychain transmitter also functions as a panic
switch for use in emergency situations. To use remote panic,
1. Press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the keychain transmitter for 3 or
more seconds. The alarm will immediately sound.
2. To stop the alarm, press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the transmitter
again for 3 seconds. If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically
stop after 30 seconds. Also if any transmitter button other than the Lock or
Unlock button is pressed and released, the Panic mode will be turned off
immediately. The normal function of this transmitter button will be suspended
during the Panic sounding period.
3. During the panic mode, the Lock and Unlock buttons can be used to lock and
unlock the doors, (if the option is installed), however once the unlock/disarm
button is pressed, the vehicle's starter inhibit device, (where installed) will be
disabled allowing the vehicle to start.
NOTE: While in the Panic mode, pressing and releasing the Lock or Un-
lock buttons will, if the option is installed, lock and unlock the doors respectively.
While in the panic mode, anytime the Unlock button is pressed, the panic feature
will continue for the allotted 30 seconds, however, the security system will be
disarmed allowing the vehicle to start.
R.F.SHOCK SENSORMODE SELECTION
The way in which your alarm system reacts to threatening vibrations, created by
attempts to enter the vehicle by breaking a window, is adjustable by the transmitter
immediately after arming. There are 4 modes of operation that can be selected
by the operator.
1. Normal Operation (default mode)
In this mode, any strong vibrations will cause the siren to sound (full
detect) for 30 seconds. Any lesser vibration will cause the siren to emit
about 6 short warn away chirps, (pre-detect).
2. Stage 1 (Omit pre-detect)
In this mode, the warn away chirps created by the lesser vibration will be
deleted. If strong vibration occurs, the siren will sound.
Page9

3. Stage 2 (Omit pre & full detect)
In this mode, both the pre-detect stage, and the full trigger stage of the sensor
are defeated. The unit will not react to vibration of any magnitude.
4. Stage 3 (City Mode)
In this mode, the pre-detect chirps will change from six pre-warning tones to
a full 10 seconds of warning chirps.
The full detect trigger duration will be reduced from 30 seconds to 15 seconds.
NOTE: Setting the stage of the shock sensor will be effective for one arming cycle
only. Once the system has been disarmed, the very next arming cycle will
cause the sensor to default to the normal operation stage.
To change or adjust the shock sensor, press and release the ARM button of you
keychain transmitter.
1.Within 2 seconds of arming, press and release the ARM button 1 time, to
defeat the pre-detect stage of the shock sensor. (The lights will flash and the
siren will chirp once.)
2.Within 2 seconds of step 1, press and release the ARM button 2 times, to
defeat the pre and full detect stages of the shock sensor. (The lights will
flash and the siren will chirp twice.)
3.Within 2 seconds of step 1, press and release the ARM button 3 times to
enter the "City Mode" of operation. (The lights will flash and the siren will chirp
three times.)
SAFETY(RedHandled )CONTROLSWITCH
The control switch allows you to temporarily disable the remote starting function
of your APS-995. To disable the unit, move the red handled control switch to the
off position.
The control switch also allows you to select between 2 hour start up and 4 hour
start up when using the automatic start up timer mode. The factory preset start up
time for this mode is every 4 hours. To select between 2 or 4 hour start-up timer:
1. Begin with the control switch in the on position
2. Turn the ignition switch on then off
3. Within 10 seconds, move the control switch off, on, off, on (2 switch cycles) to
select a 2 hour start timer. After 10 seconds expire, the parking lights will
flash and the siren will chirp 2 times confirming that the two hour start cycle is
set. Or, within 10 seconds move the control switch off, on, off, on, off, on,
off, on (4 switch cycles) to select a 4 hour start timer. The parking lights will
flash and the siren will chirp 4 times confirming that the 4 hour start timer is
set.
REMOTESTARTINGTHEVEHICLE
The APS-995 WILL NOT start the vehicle if any one of the following conditions exists:
1. The Vehicle Hood Is Opened.
2. The Gear Selector Is In Any Gear Other Then Park.
3. The Brake Is Depressed.
4. The Safety Control Switch Is In The Off Position.
WARNING! Be certain that the vehicle is outdoors before using this or any remote

When you arrive at your vehicle, disarm the alarm system by pressing and releas-
ing the arm/disarm button of your keychain transmitter. Enter the vehicle and turn
the ignition key to the on position.
CAUTION! Do not turn the key to the start position. This will cause the
starter motor to engage with the already running engine which could result in
damage. Step on the brake pedal to disengage the remote start unit. The vehicle
will continue to run but now on it's own power.
NOTE: The engine will stop running before the expiration of the pre-programmed
run timer if you complete any of the following:
1. Press and release the programmed channel of your keychain transmitter two
times within 2 seconds.
2. Depress the brake pedal.
3. Open the hood.
4. Move the red handled control switch to the off position.
5. Race the engine to above 4000 RPM.
OPERATINGONAUTOMATICSTARTUPTIMERMODE
The APS-995 has the ability to automatically start the vehicle every 2 or 4 hours over
a 48 hour period. This feature is especially useful in cold climates where the only
means to keep the engine and engine fluids warm is to periodically start the en-
gine.
CAUTION! Be certain that the vehicle is outdoors before using this or any remote
vehicle starting device. A running engine produces dangerous carbon
monoxide fumes which can be harmful or fatal if prolonged exposure

System Status:
The LCD based remote control, Model # 3BCR, supplied with your system indicated
the status of your vehicle's system whenever the "Red" button is operated based on
the last completed function of the system. If the Red button along with button #1 is
operated together, the transmitter will send a status request signal to the vehicle and
the vehicle will send a update to the transmitter. Also when this transmitter is used
to operate a function of the remote start, or security system, the LCD will indicate the
function operation completed by lighting a icon on the LCD display screen. The
specific Icons indicate the following:
When Disarmed, Press the Arm/Lock button to Lock and Arm the System. The Lock
Icon will flash in the vehicles windshield on the LCD Screen, and the word ARM will
display in the front bumper area.
When Armed, Press the Disarm/Unlock button to Unlock and Disarm the System.
The Unlock Icon will flash in the vehicles windshield on the LCD Screen.

When ever the vehicle is operated from the two way transmitter, the unit will
beep responsive to the function executed at the vehicle. 1 beep when armed, 2
beeps when disarmed, etc... at times It may be inconvenient or too noisy to

simultaneously.
The unit will vibrate and the mute icon will be displayed, indicating vibrate is on, or
the unit will beep and no icon displayed, indicating beep tones are active.
