Using Your System
Pressing for one second will lock the doors. The red LED will
begin to flash once per second and the parking lights will flash
once. Pressing again within 10 seconds of locking the system
will not lock the doors again, but it will flash the parking lights
and honk the horn once, confirming that the system is locked.
After 10 seconds, the system can be locked again, as usual.
NOTE: You must use your transmitter to lock the vehicle in order to be
able to unlock the system with your transmitter. If you have not used
the transmitter to lock the vehicle doors (i.e. the vehicle has been locked
using the lock/unlock switch) the transmitter cannot be used to unlock the
doors.
To unlock the driver’s door (or all vehicles doors, depending on if
your vehicle has driver’s door unlock), press for one second.
The parking lights will flash twice and the red LED will go out. If
pressing the first time did not unlock all doors, press
again within 10 seconds to unlock the remaining passenger doors
and the parking lights will flash twice. Pressing a third time
within 10 seconds will flash the parking lights and honk the horn
twice, confirming that the system has been unlocked. After 10
seconds, the system can be unlocked again, as usual.

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract
attention by triggering the system with your remote! Just press
and hold for 1.5 seconds, and you will enter Panic Mode. The
horn will honk and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds. To
stop Panic Mode at any time, press on the remote.
NOTE: In order for Panic Mode to function, the vehicle’s horn (or option-
al siren) must be connected.
Code Hopping™
The receiver and transmitter use mathematical formulas called
algorithms to change their codes each time the transmitter is used.
This Code Hopping technology has been developed to increase the
security of the unit. By following this set code sequence, the
receiver and transmitter stay synchronized, even if the transmitter
is used out of range of the vehicle. If, however, the transmitter is
pressed many times out of range, or the battery is removed, the
transmitter may get temporarily out of sync and fail to operate the
system. To resynchronize the transmitter, simply press several
times within range of the vehicle. The system will automatically
resynchronize and the transmitter will respond normally.
Panic Mode

High Frequency
Your system transmits and receives at 434 MHz. This provides a
cleaner spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal.
Enjoy a phenomenal increase in range, even in areas with high
radio interference.
Programming Options
Programming options control what your system does during normal
operation, and require few or no additional parts. However, some
options may require additional installation labor. The following is
a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in bold:
■Ignition-controlled door locks can be turned on or off. When
turned on, the doors will lock three seconds after the ignition
is turned on and unlock when the ignition is turned off.
■There is an ignition-controlled panic sequence that can be
programmed on or off. If this feature is programmed on, Panic
Mode will initiate whenever the ignition is turned on while
the system is locked. To turn off this panic sequence, simply
press .

mitter. This is useful for seeing inside the vehicle at night prior to
entering it.
Valet®Start System: For the ultimate in convenience, the Valet®
Start System can start your vehicle, monitor engine functions, and
power your climate control system with a push of a button! Over-
