Congratulations on the purchase of your keyless entry system.

Due to the complexity of this system, it must be installed by an

authorized dealer only. Installation of this product by anyone

other than an authorized dealer voids the warranty. All dealers

are provided with a preprinted dealer certificate to verify that

they are authorized.

system maintenance

The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote is

last approximately one year under normal use. When the battery

begins to weaken, operating range will be reduced and the LED

on the remote will dim.

fcc/id notice

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is

subject to the following conditions: (1) This device may not

cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any

The receiver uses a computer-based learn routine to learn the

transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any specific

transmitter button, or combination of buttons, to any receiver

function. The transmitter initially comes programmed with the

Standard Configuration, but may also be customized by an

authorized dealer. The transmitter buttons indicated in all of the

instructions in this manual correspond to a Standard

Configuration transmitter.

locking/arming

Pressing for one second arms the system by activating the

starter kill (optional) and locking the doors (if connected). The

horn will honk (if connected and in audible mode) and the

parking lights will flash once to confirm arming of the system.

While the system is armed, the status LED will flash once per

second. The Failsafe®Starter Kill (if installed) will also prevent the

vehicle’s starter from cranking.

The system can also be programmed to arm the optional Failsafe®

Starter Kill automatically (called Passive Mode). If the system has

been programmed for Passive Mode, the Failsafe®Starter Kill will

automatically activate 30 seconds after the ignition has been

turned off. After the ignition has been turned off, the status LED

will flash rapidly to indicate that the system is in Passive Mode.

If Passive Mode has been programmed on, then it is also possible

to program the system for Passive Locking. With Passive Locking,

the vehicle doors lock automatically at the same time that the Failsafe®

Starter Kill is activated. If Passive Locking is programmed on, care

must be taken to prevent the keys from being locked in the vehicle.

note: For Passive Mode to be effective, the Failsafe®

Starter Kill relay must be installed.

note: Manually locking the vehicle does not arm the sys-

tem; it will only lock the doors.

➜

unlocking/disarming

Pressing for one second disarms the system and unlocks the

doors (if connected). The horn will honk twice (if connected and

in audible mode) and the parking lights will flash twice to confirm

disarming of the system. The optional Failsafe®Starter Kill will be

deactivated. The status LED will turn off, unless the system is pro-

grammed for Passive Mode. In Passive Mode, the status LED will

flash rapidly when the system is disarmed. This indicates that the

system will re-engage the starter kill and re-lock the doors (if

Passive Locking has been programmed) in 30 seconds unless the

ignition is turned on.

disabling the system without a transmitter

If your remote transmitter is lost or damaged, you can manually

override the system. To do this, you must have the vehicle's igni-

tion key and know where the Valet®switch is located. Be sure to

check with the installer for the location of the Valet®switch.

➜

note: If the system has been armed with the remote trans-

mitter, you must use the transmitter or the Valet switch

to disarm the system and deactivate the starter kill.

Manually unlocking the vehicle does not disarm the sys-

tem; it will only unlock the doors.

➜

To disarm the security system,

turn the ignition to the ON posi-

tion. Press and release the Valet

switch within 10 seconds. The

status LED will stop flashing and

the vehicle should start. If the

vehicle does not start, you may

have waited too long; turn the

ignition off and repeat the

process.

Location of Valet Button_________________________________

audible mode

To temporarily turn on the arm or disarm horn honk(s), simply

press for less than one second before arming or disarming,

and the confirmation honk(s) will be present for that one oper-

ation only.

valet mode

You can prevent your system from automatically activating the

Failsafe®Starter Kill (optional, not included) and locking the

doors by using Valet®Mode. This is very useful when washing

the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet®Mode, the starter kill

cannot be activated, even with the transmitter, but all conve-

nience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will continue to

work normally.

➜

DRW-35

To enter or exit Valet®Mode:

1. Turn the ignition on.

2. Turn the ignition off.

3. Press and release the Valet®

switch within 10 seconds.

The status LED will light steadily if you are entering Valet®

Mode and will turn off if you are exiting Valet®Mode.

panic mode

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract

attention by triggering the system with your transmitter. Just

press for two seconds to enter Panic Mode. In Panic Mode,

the horn will honk and the parking lights will flash for 30

seconds. To stop Panic Mode at any time, press on the

transmitter again.

rraappiidd rreessuummee llooggiicc

This Directed system will store its current state to non-volatile

memory. If power is lost and then reconnected, the system will

recall the stored state from memory. This means if the unit is in

note: In order for Panic Mode to be effective, the vehicle’s

horn (or optional siren) as well as the vehicle's parking

lights must be connected.

as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will

still be in Valet Mode. This applies to all states of the system

including arm, disarm, and panic mode.

Control Unit:

The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under

the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor that

monitors your vehicle and controls all system functions.

LED:

A light mounted at a discretionary location inside the

vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system.

Starter Interrupt:

An automatic switch controlled by your system

which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever the

system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from cranking

when the system is disarmed, in Valet Mode, or if the starter

interrupt switch itself fails. Your system has feature-ready

circuitry for the starter interrupt, however installation may

require additional labor.

Transmitter:

A hand-held, remote control which operates the

various functions of your system.

Valet Switch:

A small button mounted at a discretionary location

inside the vehicle. It is used to override the system when a trans-

mitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or exit Valet Mode.

sseeccuurriittyy && ccoonnvveenniieennccee eexxppaannssiioonnss

Listed below are some of the many expansion options available

for use with your system. Some options may require additional

parts and/or labor. Please consult with your dealer for a complete

list of options available for use with this system.

Domelight Supervision:

The domelight will illuminate for 30

seconds each time the system is disarmed using the remote. This

is useful for seeing inside the vehicle at night prior to entering it.

Power Door Lock Control:

Your system is capable of controlling

many types of power door lock systems; however, some door lock

systems may require extra parts. Consult with your dealer to

determine which type of locks your vehicle uses. If power locks

are connected, the system can be programmed to lock the doors

automatically 30 seconds after the ignition has been turned off.

The system can also be programmed to lock the doors when the

ignition is turned on and to unlock them when the ignition is

turned off.

Power Trunk Release:

The system’s auxiliary output can be

programmed to operate a factory power release for the vehicle's

trunk or hatch. If the factory release is not power-activated,

Directed®'s 522T trunk-release solenoid can often be added.

Power Window Control:

Power window control is provided with

Directed®'s 529T or 530T systems. The 529T system will roll up

two windows automatically when the system is armed, or roll

two windows down by using the transmitter. The 530T will roll

two windows both up and down. The 530T also provides one

touch switch operation.

Progressive Door Unlocking:

For added security, your system can

be configured to unlock the driver’s door only, leaving the

passenger doors locked. Pressing the unlock button an additional

time will unlock the passenger doors. This option requires addi-

tional parts and labor.
