System Testing and Sensor Adjusting
Install the system type according to the wiring diagram on page 1 and then perform 
the following steps to test for correct operation.
RF Security 
Arming
1.  Press the 
A U X
 button
2.  Doors lock, Lights flash and the horn/siren sounds once
• For silent arming; press the AUX button prior to pressing the 
A U X
 button.
3.  Dome light turns off, starter kill becomes active, and the status LED begins 
flashing.
4.  While arming, the system tests the trigger inputs for status. If any trigger inputs 
are active when arming the horn/siren sounds a second time as a notifica-
tion, both the onboard impact sensor and the active input are bypassed. The 
open zone is bypassed until corrected and the impact sensor is bypassed for 
a maximum of 4 minutes. While bypassed, the active input is indicated by the 
status LED flashes (see table of zones for LED flashes).
Sensor testing:
a.  Gently impact the vehicle with increasing intensity to test the pre-trigger 
level (10 horn/siren sounds. 
b.  Impact that location more heavily to test the full-trigger level (horn/siren/
lights for 30 sec). 
c.  Adjust the sensor pot until the desired levels are obtained
Note: The Nuisance Prevention feature bypasses the sensor after 3 full-triggers; 
to reset if active, disarm the system and turn the ignition on/off.
5.  Protected entry tests:
• Open each door, the horn/siren sounds quickly and then begin the full-
trigger output
• Open the hood or trunk, or turn on the ignition to immediately begin the 
full-trigger output.
Note: The Nuisance Prevention feature bypasses an input that stays active for 
3 full-triggers; close the input to reset.
Sensor Bypass
Press and release the AUX button within 5 seconds after  
A U X
 button, the lights flash 
two times and the pre-trigger output is bypassed
6.  Press and release the AUX button again within 5 seconds, the lights flash 3 
times and the pre-trigger and full-trigger outputs are bypassed
7.  Press the 
A U X
 button anytime to reset the sensor
Disarming
1.  Press the 
A U X
 button
2.  Doors unlock, Lights flash and the horn/siren sounds 2 times. If the system 
has been triggered, the horn/siren sounds 4 times or 5 times if the sensor is 
bypassed
• For silent disarming; press the AUX button prior to pressing the disarm 
button.
3.  Dome light turns on, starter kill becomes inactive, and the status LED turns off.
• If triggered, the status LED continues to flash to indicate triggered inputs 
(see table of zones). Turn on the ignition to reset the LED.
4.  Press the 
A U X
 button again to unlock the passenger doors if 2nd unlock is con-
nected
Trunk Release
1.  Press and hold the AUX button
2.  Factory alarm is disarmed if connected

active, and the status LED begins flashing.
3.  While arming, the system tests the trigger inputs for status. If any trigger inputs 
are active when arming the horn/siren sounds a second time as a notifica-
tion, both the onboard impact sensor and the active input are bypassed. The 
open zone is bypassed until corrected and the impact sensor is bypassed for 
a maximum of 4 minutes. While bypassed, the active input is indicated by the 
status LED flashes (see table of zones for LED flashes).
4.  The shock sensor is enabled after a one minute delay.
Note: for installations where an Arm Defeat connection is not available the 
system is disarmed if the ignition is turned on during this one minute delay. 
5.  Sensor tests, adjustments, and protected entry tests are the same as for an RF
