System Maintenance The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote control is powered by a small, lightweight 3-volt lithium battery that will last approximately one year under normal use. When the battery weakens, operating range will be reduced and the LED on the remote will dim. Your Warranty Your warranty card must be returned and the bar code serial number must not be removed. If the warranty card is not returned, you do not have a warranty.
Transmitter Functions The receiver uses a computer-based Learn Routine to learn the remote transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any transmitter button to any receiver function. The transmitter 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 transmitter.
Button The panic feature is controlled by pressing and for 1 second. Buttons An optional auxiliary convenience or expansion function that you have added to your system can be activated by pressing and simultaneously. The auxiliary output controls _____________________________. Using Your System The receiver uses a computer-based Learn Routine to learn the transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any transmitter button to any receiver function.
While the security system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately once per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming the system, and see the status LED flashing in groups, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification. The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called passive arming).
■ Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered sequence is between 1-180 seconds of constant siren and flashing parking lights. ■ If a door is opened, the system will immediately start chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast.
■ Pressing a second time within five seconds: The siren chirps twice followed by a long chirp. Zone Two is now bypassed. ■ Pressing a third time within five seconds: The siren chirps three times followed by a long chirp. Zone Four is now bypassed. ■ Pressing a fourth time within five seconds: The siren chirps four times followed by a long chirp. Zones Two and Four are now bypassed. ■ Pressing a fifth time within five seconds: The siren chirps five times followed by a long chirp.
Disarming To disarm the system, press . You will hear two chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power locks are connected to the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps either four or five times when disarming, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert. High Security Disarm This system proudly offers High Security Disarm.
and know where the Valet® switch is located. Be sure to check with the installer for the location of the Valet® switch. To disarm the security system, turn the ignition to the "on" position. Press the Valet® switch the pre-programmed number of DRW-35 times (1-5 times) within 15 seconds. The system should now disarm. If it does not, you may have waited too long, so turn the ignition off and on and try again.
If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your transmitter! Just press for 1 second, and you will enter Panic Mode. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for the programmed siren duration. To stop Panic Mode at any time, press on the remote transmitter again. You can prevent your security system from automatically arming and triggering by using Valet® Mode. This is very useful when washing the vehicle or having it serviced.
Remote Valet® The operations described in this section refer to transmitter buttons. Remember, the buttons used in all the instructions in this guide correspond to a Standard Configuration transmitter. This may not be how your transmitter is set up. 1. Open any vehicle door. 2. Press . 3. Press . 4. Press again. The status LED will light solid if you are entering Valet® Mode, or will go out if you are exiting Valet® Mode.
If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the security system while it is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures that a sensor that is continually triggering will remain bypassed. Doors are covered by NPC differently: If the alarm is triggered by an open door for three full cycles, the doors will be bypassed until the trigger ceases.
Arming Diagnostics If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass Notification. NOTE: Bypass Notification will not occur when using Silent Mode™ or if chirps have been programmed OFF. The security system will ignore the input that was active when the system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds later the system will monitor that input normally.
Table of Zones The zone number is the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify that input. The standard input assignments are listed below, along with spaces to write in any optional sensors or switches you have had installed.
Code Hopping The receiver and transmitters each use mathematical formulas called algorithms to change their codes each time the transmitter is used. This technology has been developed to increase the security of the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes should be. This helps to keep the transmitter "in sync" with the control unit even if you use the remote control out of range of the vehicle.
Owner Recognition Owner Recognition is a feature available exclusively from DEI®. Using a DEI® Bitwriter, hand-held programming tool, your dealer can program many of the system settings. The programmer makes it possible to program different settings for each transmitter that is used with the system. Then, whenever a specific transmitter is used, the system will recall the settings assigned to that transmitter.
Power Saver Mode Your security system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while armed or in Valet® Mode, after a period of time in which no operation has been performed. This lowers the current draw to prevent the security system from draining the vehicle’s battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions: ■ Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has been armed for 24 hours, the LED will flash at half its normal rate decreasing the system's current draw.
The following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in Bold: ■ Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic arming 30-seconds after the last door has been closed). ■ Arming/disarming confirmation siren chirps on or off. ■ The ignition controlled door lock feature on or off: With this feature on, the doors will lock three seconds after the ignition is turned on, and unlock when the ignition is turned off.
open. This feature is useful if a door has been left ajar when leaving the vehicle. Forced passive arming ensures that the security system will be armed in every situation. NOTE: When the system passively arms after one hour, the entry point that has been left open, and anything connected to the same zone, is bypassed and cannot trigger the system. However, the remaining inputs to the system are fully operational.
■ Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry on or off: Please refer to the NPC™ section of this manual for a complete explanation of how NPC™ operates. If NPC™ is programmed off, the security system will respond to inputs from any sensor indefinitely. NOTE: Because many states have laws regulating security systems, programming NPC off may cause your system to violate state laws.
■ Progressive unlocking: In most cars with electric power door locks, the system can be configured so that when the system is disarmed, only the driver’s door unlocks. A second press of within 15 seconds of disarming unlocks the other doors. ■ Vehicle Recovery System (VRS®): VRS® is an anti-carjacking device designed to help in the safe recovery of your vehicle in case of a carjacking.
installed, the system can never inadvertently stop your vehicle in traffic or on railroad tracks while the vehicle is in operation. It is unlike other systems that shut down your engine while it is running. This system is designed to perform starter interrupt, or starter kill. The Failsafe® Starter Kill cannot shut down an already-running engine – it can only prevent an engine from starting in the first place.
VRS® Triggered Sequence Fifteen seconds after the last door has closed, the security system’s status LED will begin flashing. This delay is intended to allow you to distance yourself from your vehicle in the event of a carjacking. Forty-five seconds later, the Soft Chirp® Revenger® siren will begin chirping and the parking lights will begin flashing. This time could be used to notify authorities that your vehicle has been hijacked, and tell them what the VRS® will do next.
Once the VRS® is armed, it does not disarm automatically. You must disarm it the next time you operate the vehicle. You must disarm it with one of the following procedures: If the system has not entered the triggered sequence (siren has not started chirping): 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Press on the transmitter for one sec- ond. The lights will flash and the siren will chirp twice.
Failsafe® Starter Kill: An automatic switch controlled by the system which prevents your vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever the security system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from cranking when the security system is disarmed, in Valet® mode, or should the starter kill switch itself fail. Your system is ready for this feature; however, installation may require additional labor. Input: A physical connection to the system.
Valet® Switch: A small push-button switch mounted somewhere inside the vehicle. It is used to override the alarm when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or exit Valet® mode. Warn Away® Response: Lighter impacts to the vehicle will generate the Warn Away response. It consists of several seconds of siren chirps and parking light flashes. Zone: A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognize as unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular zone.
Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is established by the installing the 508D "radar" sensor. Your security system can then react to any intrusions into this field with the triggered sequence. Headlight and Parking Light Automation: The 545T Nite-Lite® automatically turns on your parking and headlights when it gets dark. In addition, the 545T will turn your headlights on whenever the windshield wipers are used.
