Omega Vehicle Security 533i 3 - Manual (Page 18)

BACKUP BATTERY
This security system is equipped with a backup battery inside the control
module. The backup battery will provide an alternative power source to
operate the Crime Guard system if the vehicle's battery is disconnected. A
built-in protection circuit will not allow the backup battery to supply power
into the vehicle's electrical system.
While operating on the backup battery, the system will not have the
flashing lights output, the Status Indicator Light, nor power any sensors in
order to conserve power. The siren will continue to operate at its maximum
sound output, all protected entry zones (besides the sensor) will continue to
be monitored, and the Starter Interrupt will operate while the system is
armed. The backup battery should be replaced by your authorized Crime
Guard dealer every 18 months, or any time the backup battery has operated
the system on its own.
Anticipated life for the backup battery under following conditions:
• 2 days as the system’s only power source while armed.
• 25 activated alarm cycles: An activated cycle has a 30 second duration
during which the siren is sounding. The cycle ends when the system auto-
matically resets itself to the armed state.
• 50 separate arming or disarming commands.
• 18 months if the backup battery circuit has not been used.
2nd & 3rd VEHICLE OPERATION
Up to three systems may be independently operated using a single
transmitter. The transmitter’s button functions can be programmed to be
different for each vehicle. This ability to change the button assignment
prevents arming and disarming the multiple systems simultaneously.

Your system is equipped with three separately programmable Vehicle
Recovery protection features, which also provide Anti-Carjacking protection.
The Vehicle Recovery operation may be selectively activated by the ignition,
by an open door, or by the transmitter.
How It Works :
Once the Vehicle Recovery process has begun, the user has 53 seconds
to cancel the process by entering the system’s programmed SecureCode using
the Valet Switch. If Vehicle Recovery is not cancelled, 53 seconds after
being activated the siren will begin to chirp for 7 seconds to alert the user that
the system is about to enter into an alarm condition.
If the Vehicle Recovery process is not cancelled before the 60 second
countdown expires, the system will enter an alarm condition, sounding the
siren and flashing the parking lights. 30 seconds after this occurs, or should
the ignition be turned off in the meantime, the stater interrupt will engage.
Once the system enters the alarm condition, it will not respond to the
transmitter, nor will the system reset automatically after 60 seconds.
Once in the alarm condition, the Vehicle Recovery Protection can only be
disengaged by:
Step 1: Turning the vehicle’s ignition off.
Step 2: Turning the ignition back on.
Step 3: Within 5 seconds, perform an Emergency Override using the
Valet Switch. If the SecureCode has been customized, the correct
number of Valet Switch presses must be made.
Level #1: Vehicle Recovery activated by the vehicle’s ignition:
The Vehicle Recovery process is started every time the vehicle’s ignition is
turned on. This is programmable feature #12.
Level #2: Vehicle Recovery activated an open door:
The Vehicle Recovery process is started by a door of the vehicle being
opened, but only if the ignition is on when the door is opened. This is
programmable feature #13.
Level #3: Vehicle Recovery activated using a remote control:
The Vehicle Recovery process is started by pressing holding the transmitter’s
Small Lower Button for 3 seconds, but only if the vehicle’s ignition is on.
This is programmable feature #14.
