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.
oOptional - Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle’s starting circuit will be bypassed.
If the thief should choose to ignore the siren/horn, the vehicle can not be started.
oOptional - Any strong impact to the vehicle will cause the alarm to trigger for the full 30
second alarm cycle.
oOptional - Any mild impact to the vehicle will cause the alarm to sound a short series of
warning tones.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM
1. As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Disarm / Unlock button on the keychain
transmitter.

WHILE THE SYSTEM IS SOUNDING
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 disarm button. This action will
turn off the siren yet leave the vehicle fully armed and protected. This feature is particularly
useful if you are aware of children playing near your vehicle that may accidently trigger your
security system. In this case you can cancel the siren sounding without disarming your security
system.
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS
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/horn 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 intrusion
attempt was made to the optional 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.
VALET SWITCH
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. To use the valet mode, the system must first be disarmed either
by using your keychain transmitter or by overriding the system, then:
1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition key to the on position.
2. Press and hold the valet pushbutton switch until the dash mounted LED turns on
solid. The system will remain in the valet mode.

Page 5
3. To return to normal operation, press and release the pushbutton switch any time
the ignition is on.
NOTE : Always remember to return the system to the NON VALET mode after servicing to
ensure that the vehicle remains protected at all times.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE VALET SWITCH MANUAL OVERRIDE
Your Security System can be disarmed without the use of the keychain transmitter. This is nec-
essary,since you will need the ability to operateyour vehicle ifthe transmitter islost or itsbattery
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 pushbutton switch.
The alarm system will stop sounding and enter the (by-passed) mode. You can now start and
operate the vehicle normally.
Typically this override mode is used only if the transmitter has become inoperative.
PROGRAMMINGTHECUSTOM CODE MANUAL OVERRIDE
Unlike override switches easily found, and defeated, this security system allows the con-
sumer to program a personal override code, offering a higher level of security. To take
advantage of this option, programmable feature # 9 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 se-
quence. 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
pushbutton switch from 1 up 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
pushbutton 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.

Page 6
NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire or if the ignition switch is turned off for more than 5
seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert back to the last success-
fully stored code.
CustomCodeProgramming Example:
To Change the code from the factory pre-assigned 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 se-
quence.
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 than 5
seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert back to the last successfully
stored code.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE CUSTOM CODE OVERRIDE
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 pushbutton switch 1 time.
3) Within 5 seconds, turn the ignition switch off then on.
4) Within 5 seconds, press and release the pushbutton 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.

ELIMINATING THE NORMAL ARM / 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 / 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 / DISARM button for two seconds. To do this,
1. With the valet switch in the off position, turn the ignition key on then off.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet pushbutton switch three times.
3. If the chirps were on before you started, then you will hear 2 chirps indicating 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: If the siren/horn chirps two times, regardless of the valet switch operation as described
above, then the horn and siren chirps have been turned off via programming features 7
and 8. Contact your installation center or Audiovox technical department for information
on how to reinstate the chirp feature through programming.
NOTE: Whenever the chirps are by-passed, 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.
REMOTE PANIC OPERATION
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.
NOTE: While in the Panic mode, pressing and releasing the Lock or the Unlock 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.
ADDITIONAL REMOTE FUNCTION ( CHANNEL 3 )
This security system has an additional feature that can be connected to a number of different
optional accessories. Some of the more common uses for this channel are:
oRemote Trunk Release
oRemote Car Starter
oRemote Window Closure
oRemote Garage Door Interface
To activate the optional accessory, press and hold the option button 2 on the keychain
transmitter for 3 seconds.
