Thank you for trusng Presge products! If you are a consumer, please note:
Professional installaon is strongly recommended.
This manual assumes the installer has adequate knowledge of the following experse. Therefore, it does not
cover these topics in detail:
• 12-volt electronics
• Tesng and verifying circuits
• Making safe and lasng wiring connecons
• Factory ignion, power, lighng, data bus and sensing systems
• Factory systems and components to avoid
• Safe wire roung, circuit protecon and product placement
• Access to vehicle-specic technical informaon
In addion, this manual assumes the installer has the proper tools, skill and facilies to perform a professional installaon.
Performing an improper installaon could result in damage to the vehicle or its components, improper system funcon,
unsafe vehicle operaon or physical injury. Such instances would not be covered by the vehicle manufacturer's warranty,
nor by Voxx Electronics, Inc.

Once the system is installed and powered up, you will use the vehicle ignion, override buon and a programmed
remote control to set all system opons. Feature opons are divided into categories, or Banks, as described throughout
this secon. Ensure that at least one remote control is programmed to the system. If not, or if you need to program
more remote controls, use the diagram steps to access Bank 1.
The siren and LED will indicate your status and selecons. Follow the diagram below to enter and maneuver through the
programming procedure.
Quick Reference: System Programming
Programming Mode Entry and Exit Procedure
1. Turn the ignion ON.
2. Press and release the valet/override buon 3x.
3. The system will beep (1) one me, indicang you have accessed Bank 1.
4. Each cycle of the Ignion, OFF/ON, will advance to the next bank (up to Bank 3) then restart at Bank 2. (Note: To re-
access Bank 1 for transmier programming, you will need to exit and re-enter programming mode.)
5. The system will beep a number of mes to indicate the Bank number:
• 1 beeps: Bank 1 - Programming Remote Controls
• 2 beeps: Bank 2 - Security Control Opons
6. Once you have accessed the desired bank, press the valet/override buon to advance though the features. The LED
will ash a number of mes to indicate the feature, based on the charts that follow this secon. The system will chip
a number of mes to indicate the Opon programmed.
7. Once you have accessed the desired feature, press the LOCK buon on the remote control to advance though the
feature's seng opons. The system will beep a number of mes to indicate the Opon seng, based on the charts
that follow this secon.
8. Once you have made the desired seng, you can press the valet/override buon to advance through the
features within the bank, or cycle the Ignion key OFF/ON to advance to the next bank.
9. Once you have completed programming, you MUST turn the ignion key to OFF to exit the programming
mode. Programming will automacally exit aer 60sec of inacvity.
