RF-505 OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Remote Transmitter Operation—
Your Autopage Security comes with two 5-button Remote Control

To arm your security system, press the LOCK/UNLOCK button once. The
siren will chirp (1) time and the vehicle parking lights will flash (1) time

of temporarily muting the siren chirp sound. To perform this function,
simply press both the LOCK/UNLOCK & CAR buttons together on the
remote transmitter. No sound will be heard, arm / disarm confirmation will
be visual via the vehicle’s parking lights only.

and electronically open your trunk by pressing the CAR button for 2 seconds
on the remote transmitter.
