Welcome to the world of Silencer automotive security. Silencer products have been designed to provide the con-
sumer with a product that is technologically superior, providing years of trouble free operation. This manual will
provide reference for the operation and maintenance of your new Silencer vehicle immobilizer system. This system
is an automatic device that will become armed every time you leave your vehicle. Once armed, the Silencer vehicle
immobilizer will prevent your vehicle's engine from operating, aiding in the prevention of vehicle theft. Take a
moment to read this manual so you will be familiar with the operation of your new system.
Passive Arming
Once you have turned the ignition key to the “Off” position, your Silencer engine immobilizer will become armed
within 30 seconds. Upon arming, the device will emit 1 soft chirp. Turning the ignition back on before 30 seconds
will stop the timer and reset it.
Note 1: This passive arming feature could qualify in some states for an insurance discount. Check with your insur-
ance carrier.
Note 2: If your system was supplied with a “Passive Disarm Transmitter”, you have to leave the vicinity of your
vehicle (approx. 60 feet) before the passive arming function will execute. Remaining in close proximity of your
vehicle will prevent it from arming. This distance requirement may prevent you from hearing the soft arming chirp.

Each time the system is disarmed using the transmitter, the device will begin a protection mode countdown.
This is a timed secondary protection mode to insure the RF signal that disarmed the system came from your
transmitter. If you do not start your vehicle within the 60 second timer countdown, your Silencer system will
become rearmed and your engine will be disabled.
Note: If your system operates from a “Passive Disarm Transmitter”, the 60 second RF protection timer will
not time out and re-arm your system if you remain within 60 feet of your vehicle.
RF Protection
1-Button Passive Disarm Transmitter: When you return to your vehicle, at some time between a distance of
approx. 60 feet to the time you insert your ignition key to start the engine, the passive disarm transmitter will
disarm your system. Once disarmed, the device will emit 2 soft chirps. No action is required by the operator.

Emergency Override
There may come a time when it will be necessary to manually disarm your Silencer system without using
your transmitter. This condition occurs if the battery in your transmitter is low, dead or if your transmitter
becomes damaged or lost. In these circumstances, it will be necessary to use your ignition key to perform
an emergency override procedure to get your vehicle operational. Identify your Silencer model type and
repeat the procedure to perform the override function.

To replace (or remove for storage) the batteries in your transmitter, follow these procedures:
1. Turn the transmitter over and locate the slot at the edge of the transmitter case.
2. Use a small flathead screwdriver to pry apart the top and bottom case of the transmitter while
keeping the button side facing downward.
3. Once the back is completely removed, press on the button face to remove the entire transmitter
assembly from the case.
4. Separate the transmitter circuit board from the rubber button case and slide the old battery out of
it’s holder.
5. Replace the battery in reverse sequence observing the correct polarity of the battery (+ battery
side should be facing upward).
6. 3-Button and 1-Button Transmitters: The 3 volt battery for these transmitters is model CR2032.
1-Button Passive Disarm Transmitter: The 3 volt battery for this transmitter is model CR2450.
1-Button and 3-Button Transmitters
The battery supplied with the 1-button and 3-button transmitters has an average life of 1 year. Heavy trans-
mitter usage will reduce battery life. Reduced transmitter range is usually an indication that the battery is
becoming weak and should be replaced. Transmitters that are not in use should have the battery removed.
1-Button Passive Disarm Transmitter
The battery supplied with the 1-button “Passive Disarm Transmitter” has an average life of 1 year. When
the battery in this transmitter becomes weak, the passive disarm function will stop operating and you will
be required to press the button on the top of the transmitter to manually disarm your system. Loss of the
passive disarm function indicates that the battery must be replaced.
The only maintenance that your Silencer engine immobilizer requires is a periodic check to insure that all
operations are functioning normally. This is also good practice for you to refresh your memory on
“Emergency Override” and “Valet Mode” procedures.
