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 phenome-
nal increase in range - even in areas with high radio interference.
Programming Options
Programming options control what your system does during normal opera-
tion, and require little or no additional parts. However, some may require addi-
tional installation labor.
The following is a list of the programmable options, with the factory settings
in Bold.
• Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic
arming 30 seconds after the last door has been closed).
• Arming/disarming siren chirps on or off.
• Passive door locking (with passive arming) or active door locking (only
when arming with the transmitter) . This feature only works if passive arm-
ing has been selected for step one.
• The ignition-controlled door locking feature on or off. With this feature on,
the doors will lock 3 seconds after the key is turned on, and unlock when
the key is turned off.
Note: If the door is open when the ignition is turned on, the doors will not lock.
• Panic mode enabled/disabled with the ignition on. (Some states have laws
against siren capability in a moving vehicle).
• Automatic Engine Disable (AED) on or off. The purpose of the feature is to
protect the vehicle from being stolen at all times, regardless of whether or
not the alarm is armed. If AED is programmed on, the starter of the vehi-
cle will be disabled 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. Once the key
is turned off, the LED will flash slowly (one-half its normal armed rate) to
indicate the AED arming cycle. Thirty seconds later, the starter of the vehi-
cle will be disabled. To start the car, it will be necessary to arm the car with
the remote and then disarm it with the remote. It is also possible to disarm
the AED feature by turning the ignition key to the “run” position and press-
ing the valet button once. AED is also disabled when in Valet
® mode.
NOTE: This feature will only function if the FailSafe starter kill relay has been installed.
