under normal use. When the battery begins to weaken, the LED on the remote transmitter will light dimly and you will notice reduced operating range when using the remote transmitter. Your Warranty Your warranty card must be returned and the barcode serial number must not be removed. If the warranty card is not returned, no warranty will be honored on your unit. It is also necessary to keep your proof of purchase, which reflects that the product was installed by an authorized dealer.
Transmitter Functions This system is programmable, making it possible to assign any transmitter button to any specific receiver function. The remote initially comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also be customized by an authorized dealer. The buttons in all of the instructions in this manual correspond to a Standard Configuration remote. Standard Configuration Button I The arm/disarm/panic functions are usually controlled by .
Using Your System The buttons described in all instructions in this manual correspond to a standard configuration transmitter, unless otherwise specified. Arming You can arm the security system by pressing for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound (chirp) and the parking lights will flash once. If the power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will also lock.
Arming your security system protects your vehicle to the following degrees: ■ Light impacts trigger a Warn Away® response, causing the siren to chirp and the parking lights to flash for a few seconds. ■ Heavy impacts trip a trigger sequence, which consists of the siren sounding continuously and the parking lights flashing for 30 seconds. ■ If a door is opened, the siren immediately starts chirping and the parking lights start flashing to provide an instant response.
Disarming Without a Transmitter If your remote transmitter is lost or damaged, you can manually disarm your vehicle security system. To disarm the system without a transmitter, you must have the vehicle's ignition key and know where the Valet switch is located. Be sure to check with your installer at the time of installation for the location of the Valet switch. To disarm the security system, turn the ignition key on and press the Valet switch within 15 seconds. The system should DRW-35 now disarm.
Silent Mode Use the Silent Mode to temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps by briefly pressing before either arming or disarming. The confirmation chirp(s) will then be eliminated for that one operation only. To permanently turn off the arm and disarm chirps, contact your installation dealer. NOTE: The Warn Away Response to lighter impacts is bypassed if the system is armed using the Silent Mode.
Remote Valet® You can also enter or exit Valet Mode by using the remote transmitter: 1. Open any vehicle door. 2. Press . 3. Press . 4. Press again. The status LED will light solidly if you have entered Valet Mode and will turn off if you have exited Valet Mode. Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry Your security system has Nuisance Prevention Circuitry™ (NPC™) to prevent annoying false alarms.
The vehicle doors are protected differently by NPC™. If your security system is triggered by an open door for three, full 30-second cycles (one and one half minutes), the system will bypass the doors until the trigger ceases. NOTE: Arming and disarming the system does not reset the NPC™. The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are for that zone not to be triggered for 60 minutes or to turn the ignition key on.
ceases, the system will resume normal monitoring. For example, if your vehicle has an interior light exit delay and you arm the system before the light turns off, you may hear a Bypass Notification chirp. Three seconds after the light turns off, however, normal monitoring resumes. NOTE: Bypass Notification does not occur when the system is in Silent Mode™ or if the chirps have been programmed not to sound.
ZONE (Number of LED Flashes) DESCRIPTION 1 Instant trigger for optional hood or trunk pins 2 A heavier impact detected by the Shock Sensor 3 Door switch trigger 5 Ignition trigger DEALER-INSTALLED OPTIONS NOTE: The LED does not report when the Warn Away® response has been activated; it only reports Triggered Sequences. Code Hopping ™ The receiver and transmitter use mathematical formulas called algorithms to change their codes each time the transmitter is used.
High Frequency Your system transmits and receives at 434 MHz. This provides a cleaner spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal. Enjoy a phenomenal increase in range, even in areas with high radio interference. Programming Options Programming options control your system's normal, operational set-up. Most options do not require additional parts, but some may require installation labor.
■ Ignition controlled door lock feature, on or off. With this feature on, the doors will lock three seconds after the ignition key is turned on, and unlock when the ignition is turned off. The system also prevents the doors from locking when the ignition is turned on while any vehicle door is open. ■ Siren tones and chirp volume: The output of the Revenger™ Soft Chirp™ siren consists of six different tones in sequence.
Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is established by the 508D "radar" sensor. Your security system will respond to any intrusions into this field by initiating the triggered sequence. Power Locks: This system offers lock outputs that can control some manufacturers' power door lock systems. For other systems, additional parts may be required. Power Trunk Release: The output of the system can operate a factory power release for the vehicle's trunk or hatch.
Glossary of Terms Control Module: The "brain" of your security system. Usually hidden underneath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor that monitors your vehicle and controls all of the security system’s functions. Failsafe® Starter Kill Relay: Located on-board the control module, this is an automatic switch controlled by the security system that prevents the vehicle's starter from cranking whenever the system is armed.
Trigger or Triggered Sequence: The "setting off" or "tripping" of the alarm. A Triggered Sequence consists of the siren sounding and the parking lights flashing for 30 seconds. Valet Switch: A small, push-button switch mounted inside the vehicle, at a location determined by the installer. This switch is used to override the alarm when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or can be used to put the system into Valet Mode.
