       1. Turn the ignition to the “OFF” position and exit the vehicle.
       2. After all entrances are closed, the security system LED will flash fast for 45 seconds. If you
          reopen any protected Door, Hood orTrunk, the security system LED will stop flashing. It will
          begin flashing again once the vehicle’s entrances are closed.
       3. After the 45-second timer has elapsed, the security system will automatically “ARM”. The
          siren/horn will chirp once, and the parking lights will flash once.

          disarmed. The vehicle door will unlock and the dome light will turn on for 30 seconds upon
          disarming if these items are connected to the security system.

      Tamper Disarming
       If the security system had been previously triggered, upon disarm the siren will chirp 4 times and
       the parking lights will flash 3 times.

      Pathway Illumination
       This optional feature turns the parking lights “ON” for 30 seconds upon a unlock signal and for 10
       seconds upon the lock signal.

      Two Step Door Unlock
       This optional feature will unlock only the driver’s door upon disarming the security system.
       Pushing the button a second time within 3 seconds will unlock the remianing doors.

      Automatic Rearm
       If this optional feature is selected, the security system will automatically rearm itself within 60
       seconds after disarming with the remote transmitter. Automatic rearm will cancel if any door is
       opened before the 60 second timer is up.

          seconds to illuminate the interior.
       2. If the security system is triggered, the dome light will flash for the same duration as the parking
          lights.
       Note: Turning “ON” the ignition switch or arm the system will turn off the dome light prior to the
       30 second timer.
