Your PRO-9671FT Remote Start Alarm System has many features and available options some
of which are selected at time of installation. For your reference, the list on the back page of
this manual show what features and options have been installed. Consult your installing
dealer for options that may have been installed and are not listed.
ARMING THE SYSTEM - ACTIVE:
1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.
2. Press and release the "Lock/Unlock" button of your key chain transmitter one time.
The parking lights will flash once, the siren will chirp once, and the dash mounted LED will
begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed. If you have the optional door lock/
unlock circuit installed, the doors will lock.
Note: If the siren chirped three times, then you have left a door, hood, or trunk ajar. Simply
closing that opening will provide full protection. If the siren did not sound when arming, then
the chirps have been turned off. Refer to the section on "Eliminating the Arm/Disarm Chirps"
shown later in this manual.
SILENT ARMING - ACTIVE:
1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.
2. Press and hold the "Lock/Unlock" button of your key chain transmitter for two seconds.
The parking lights will flash once, and the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly
confirming the system is armed. The siren will not chirp. If you have the optional door lock/
unlock circuit installed, the doors will lock.
Note: If the siren chirps three times, then you have left a door, hood, or trunk ajar. Simply
closing that opening will provide full protection.
ARMING THE SYSTEM - PASSIVE (AUTOMATIC)
If the passive arming feature has been selected:
1. Turn the engine off, exit the vehicle, and close all doors, hood and trunk.
The dash mounted LED will begin to flash rapidly indicating that the 30 second passive arming
timer has begun. If the LED does not begin to flash rapidly, then you have left a door, hood,
or trunk ajar. Closing this entry point will allow the arming cycle will begin. If any entry point
is opened during the 30 second arming cycle, arming will be suspended. When all entry
points are closed, the arming cycle will begin again.
At the end of the 30 seconds, The parking lights will flash once, the siren will chirp once, and
the dash mounted LED will begin to flash slowly confirming the system is armed. If the siren
did not sound when arming, then the chirps have been turned off. Refer to the section on
"Eliminating the Arm/Disarm Chirps" shown later in this manual. Passive door locking is a
selectable feature. If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors may
or may not lock passively dependent upon the setup during installation.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED:
Opening any protected entry point, hood, trunk, or doors will cause the alarm to trigger
immediately. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds, then stop
and continue to monitor all protected entry points. If the thief left the door opened, the unit will
Page 2

sound for six 30 second cycles than shut down, isolate the triggered zone and continue to
protect all other zones.
Whenever the system is armed, the dash mounted LED will slowly flash. This serves as a
visual deterrent to a potential thief. This LED is a very low current light emitting diode, and will
not cause the battery to drain even if left unattended for long periods of time.
Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle parking lights will flash for the full siren
sounding period. Optional - whenever the system is triggered, the interior courtesy light will
flash for the full siren sounding period.
Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle starter circuit is disabled, even with the ignition
key, the vehicle will not start.
Whenever the system is armed, any strong impact to the vehicle will cause the shock
detector to trigger the alarm. Any lesser impact will cause the pre-detect stage of the shock
sensor to emit a few short series of warning tones from the siren.
DISARMING THE SYSTEM
As you approach the vehicle, press and release the "Lock/Unlock" button on the keychain
transmitter.
The parking lights will flash two times, the siren will chirp twice, and dash mounted LED will
turn off.
If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors will unlock. If you have the
optional entry illumination circuit installed, the interior light will turn on for 30 seconds or until
the ignition key is switched on.
Note: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted LED
will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any door will
suspend the automatic arming.
If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates that the
alarm system had been triggered in your absence. Before turning on the ignition key, examine
the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies the triggered zone.
For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS found later in this manual.
If the siren did not sound upon disarm, then the chirps have been turned off. Refer to the
section titled ELIMINATING THEARM/DISARM CHIRPS.
SILENT DISARMING

system is disarmed. The siren will not chirp. If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit
installed, the doors will unlock. If you have the optional entry illumination circuit installed, the
interior light will turn on for 30 seconds or until the ignition key is switched on.
Note: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted LED
will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any door will
suspend the automatic arming.
If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates that the
alarm system had been triggered in your absence. Before turning on the ignition key, examine
