The supplied dual stage shock sensor connects directly to the shock sensor connector on the
alarm module. The adjustment screw on the sensor will increase or decrease the sensitivity. The
first and second stage are controlled by the same adjustment screw.
Test the alarm sensitivity then adust as required. If the alarm is triggered 3 times in a row you will
need to cycle the ignition on then off to reset the shock sensor before testing again.
If a secondary sensor is being installed, the wiring for the connector is as follows:

Press and HOLD the valet switch, the Park Lights will turn on.
*The Siren will Chirp once.
(Repeat from Step 1 if the system does not respond)
Cycle the Ignition Key - ON/OFF ON/OFF ON
(Leaving the key ON)
The system can learn up to 3 different remotes. Each remote to be used MUST be programmed
together during the same sequence. For security, when a new remote is programmed all
previous remotes are deleted. Please see remote operation chart for information on using
Second Car / Padlock Operations.
After 5 seconds the park lights will turn off.
*The Siren will Chirp 5 times.
Press and release the Lock Button on each of the remote to be programmed.
See notes below if the remote is to be programmed for 2nd car or PADLOCK.
The system will respond by flashing the park lights for each remote.
*The Siren will Chirp once for each remote.
Turn off the key when all the remotes are programmed.
PADLOCK is used to prevent accidental activation on the remote. The Trunk Button must be
pressed once before the intended feature button. (See Second Car/ PADLOCK operation)
Use the same remote programming mode and program the transmitter using the Trunk Button
instead on the Lock Button.
2nd Car Operation allows a single remote to control two vehicles. Use the same remote
programming mode and enter the transmitter as shown below.
In Car One- Press Lock on car 1 remote. Press Trunk button on car 2 remote.

ANTI CARJACK MODE
ACTIVATING ANTI CARJACK MODE (International Model Only)
Type-1 - The timer will start if the door is opened or if the # button is held for 3 seconds while
the ignition is on.
Type-2 - The timer will start if the door is opened or if the # button is held for 3 seconds while
the ignition is on. The timer will also start every time the ignition is turned on.
When programmed, the Anti Carjack timer is triggered when a door is opened or a button is
pressed on the remote while the ignition is on. Type 2 Carjack Mode will trigger the timer with
the door and trunk button as well as each time the ignition is turned on.
If Anti Carjack is triggered, there will be no indication in the first 20 seconds.
After 20 seconds the LED will begin to flash rapidly to indicate that the Carjack feature is
active. After an additional 20 seconds the siren will then start to chirp each second for an
additional 20 seconds.
The alarm will now activate, the ignition will interrupt, parking lights will flash, and the siren will
alert indicating trouble. The lights and siren will pause momentarily between each one minute
cycle, and repeat until disarmed.
Note - Turn the ignition key off before opening the door to avoid triggering the Anti Carjack
Feature. Pressing and releasing the valet button with the key on during the first 60 seconds will
stop the Carjack timer.
To disarm the Anti Carjack timer process during the initial 60 seconds of activation, turn the
ignition key off then on, then press the valet button momentarily.
To disarm the Anti Carjack alert process during the lights and siren cycles, turn the car off then
on, then press and hold the valet button for 5 seconds.
This feature requires that the user must be fully aware of the operation of this feature. If the
system goes into full alarm the remote will no longer function until the Anti Carjack Feature is
disabled.

If the alarm system is triggered, the system will retain in memory the cause of the
trigger. When disarming the alarm, the siren/horn will chirp 3 times to indicate the
alarm had been triggered. The system’s LED will also flash in pulses to indicate
which input triggered the alarm.
*LED status will be cleared when the ignition is turned ON. For proper memory
clearing, insure to connect the alarm ignition input to the ignition on the vehicle.
If an output from the alarm is shorted the siren will chirp 4 times and, the park lights
will flash 4 times when the system is armed or disarmed. The LED will flash a
diagnostic code that represents the circuit that is at fault. (See Chart Below). Turning
the ignition to the on then off position will reset the diagnostic code.
