Toyota VSS4 User manual

Dear Customer,
Congratulations for your purchase of this alarm system.
Please take the time to read this manual to learn its functions and
to get the full usage of it.
We suggest that you keep this manual in the car. It will be easier for
you to find the information in the event of emergency. Your
authorized retailer will be pleased to clarify any queries you may
have with the system or its operation if you cannot find the
information you need in this manual.
Your new alarm system protects your vehicle against intrusions by
monitoring the bonnet, doors and boot, and is capable of detecting
movements in the vehicle thanks to its intrusion sensor. It also
detects if your car is lifted to protect it against towing or wheel
theft*. The alarm is also self-protected against wiring attacks or
battery disconnection.
In case of intrusion, the alarm will generate a powerful sound,
activate the vehicle horn, the blinkers and dome lamp to deter the
intruder.
Additionally, the alarm features a LED and stickers to put off any
attack before it would even begin. The LED also provides the alarm
status and will indicate you if alarm was triggered during your
absence, and what triggered it.
*This functionality is only available if your alarm includes inclination
sensor. Please contact your authorized retailer in case you would
like to upgrade your alarm.
Note concerning the intrusion sensor
The intrusion sensor protects the vehicle by detecting movement in
the vehicle.
False detection may be caused by:
•Dangling accessories
•Automatic or high pressure car washes
•The impact of hail, lightning strikes, or other kinds of
impact or continuous vibrations
•Open windows or open sliding roof
•Remote Cabin heater (if not installed as recommended)
PIN code card
Your alarm PIN code can be found on the PIN code card (credit card
size) provided by your authorized retailer.
This code consists of four digits and
allows you to activate / deactivate the
alarm system manually (emergency
override). Please refer to the “emergency
override” section for the procedure to
use this code.
You should keep this card always with you. Do not leave it in
your car.
If you have lost your PIN code, please contact your authorized
retailer.
Operation
This alarm system is operated by the original remote control
described in the vehicle owner’s manual. To program extra remote
controls, please consult your Toyota authorized retailer.
The alarm system is set when the car is locked and unset when the
car is unlocked using the remote key or smart key system.
Opening the vehicle with the mechanical key would result
in triggering of the alarm. In such a case, please refer to
section "Emergency Override".
Alarm is incompatible with “Double locking function”. If
“Double locking function” is enabled, alarm will be
triggered when vehicle is unlocked.
Arm/Disarm the alarm system
To prevent false alarms, check that there is no one in the
car, and that all windows, and sliding roof are closed
before locking the car.

Arm without intrusion sensor and /or
inclination sensor
If you have to lock the car with somebody inside (passenger,
children, pet…), or if you want to leave the window open, the
intrusion sensor needs to be disabled to avoid false alarms.
Similarly, if your vehicle may move when locked (on a ferry for
instance), level monitor should be disabled to avoid false alarms.
To disable the intrusion sensor and / or the inclination sensor, press
the push-button under the LED within 5s after the vehicle is
switched off. Keep it pressed until the LED blinks back:

The sensors are only disabled for the next vehicle lock (alarm set).
At the next time the car is locked, all sensors will activate again.
Automatic re-arming (only for models with
smart key)
If the car is unlocked by smart key or door handle and within 30
seconds no door or trunk lid is opened, the door lock system will re-
lock the car automatically and the alarm system will arm.
