System Maintenance This system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote control is powered either by a miniature 12V battery, type GP23A, or a lightweight 3-volt lithium battery, both of which will last approximately one year under normal use. Contact your dealer if you have any questions. 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.
Transmitter Functions The receiver uses a computer-based Learn Routine to learn the transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any button on the remote transmitter to any receiver function. Two possible transmitter configurations are described in this section. Remember that there are many alternate custom configurations that can be programmed by your dealer. Standard Configuration The standard configuration is how the transmitters come programmed initially.
Button IV Another optional auxiliary convenience or expansion function that you may have added to your system can be activated by pressing . This auxiliary output controls _____________________________. Buttons I and II Another optional auxiliary convenience or expansion function that you may have added to your system can be activated by pressing and simultaneously. This auxiliary output controls _____________________________.
Button I The arming and Multi-Level Security functions are usually controlled by . Pressing system. Pressing for one second will arm the again within five seconds of arming activates Multi-Level Security. Button II Pressing for one second will disarm the system. If configured for optional progressive unlocking, pressing when disarming will only unlock the driver’s door. A second press of will then unlock the passenger doors.
Using Your System The remote button numbers in this manual correspond to the standard configuration unless otherwise specified. Remember, this is not the only way your transmitters can be programmed. Your transmitters may also be programmed for expanded configuration or custom configured by a dealer to meet your needs. Arming You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound, or chirp, and the parking lights will flash once.
as fast as it does when the system is armed. The siren will chirp one time 20 seconds after the last door has been closed. The system is not actually armed at that point. The system arms and the doors lock (if connected and programmed for passive locking) at the 30-second mark, but the siren will not chirp. The early chirp provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming.
Arming While Driving Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle! Simply press and hold on your transmitter for 1.5 seconds while the vehicle is running or the ignition is on. The system will chirp once and then once more to indicate that the ignition is on. The system will not respond to any input except the door triggers and the starter kill relay (if installed) will not be activated. The system will disarm automatically when the ignition is turned off.
■ Press a fourth time within five seconds: The siren chirps four times followed by a long chirp. Zones Two, Four, Five and Six are now bypassed. ■ Press a fifth time within five seconds: The siren chirps five times followed by a long chirp. All input zones are now bypassed with the exception of Zones Seven and Eight. IMPORTANT: Multi-Level Security is only available with a system using the expanded configuration. This feature cannot be accessed through a standard configuration transmitter.
state. The system will not disarm, but rather reset. This prevents you from having to disable the system should you wish to stop the triggered sequence without visually checking the vehicle. Pressing the disarm button again, after resetting the system, will disarm the system. Pressing the disarm button on the transmitter during the first six seconds of the triggered sequence will disarm the system immediately.
Ghost Switch A Ghost Switch is actually a factory switch that already exists in your vehicle that can be set up to function as an optional protected disarm switch. Any factory switch in your vehicle may be used as long as it switches positive voltage. Your installer can help you to determine which switches will work in your vehicle. Some possible switches are power window, radio turn-on, or defroster switches.
Silent Mode To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use Silent Mode™. Simply press briefly before arming or disarming, and the confirmation chirp(s) will be eliminated for that one operation only. If you want the arm/disarm chirps turned off permanently, your dealer can do this for you. NOTE: The Warn Away® response to lighter impacts is bypassed if the system is armed using Silent Mode. This ensures that no chirps will be emitted by the siren in an area you want chirp-free.
To enter or exit Valet Mode: 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Turn the ignition off. 3. Press and release the Valet DRW-35 switch within 10 seconds. The status LED will light solid if you are entering Valet Mode, and it will go out if you are exiting Valet Mode. Remote Valet The operations described in this section indicate transmitter buttons that correspond to the standard configuration. Remember, this may not be how your transmitter is set up. 1. Open any door. 2. Press . 3. Press . 4.
Here’s how Nuisance Prevention Circuitry works: The alarm triggers three times. Each time, the same sensor or switch is triggering the alarm. The three triggers activate within 60 minutes of each other. NPC will interpret this pattern of triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, NPC bypasses that sensor or switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.
Diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence. 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 again a few seconds later.
Zones section). The system will retain this information in its memory, and chirp four or five times each time it is disarmed, until the next time the ignition key is turned on. Table of Zones The zone number is represented by the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify a specific 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 a mathematical formula called an algorithm to change their code each time the transmitter is used. This technology has been developed to increase the security of the unit. The control unit detects 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 revolutionary new feature available only from DEI®. Using a personal computer, your dealer can program many of the system settings. The computer 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. Owner Recognition lets up to four users of the system have different settings that meet their specific needs.
the VRS sequence. If the unit loses power at any time during the VRS sequence, when the unit is powered back up it will automatically resume the VRS full trigger sequence. Programming Options Programming options control how your system performs during normal operation; however, some options may require additional installation parts and installation labor.
■ Panic mode enabled/disabled with the ignition on: Some states have laws against siren capability in a moving vehicle. ■ Automatic Engine Disable (AED) on or off: The purpose of the feature is to protect the vehicle from being stolen at all times, regardless of whether or not the alarm is armed. If AED is programmed on, the starter of the vehicle will be disabled 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off.
■ Full trigger response 30 or 60 seconds: This determines how long the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws regulating how long a security system can sound before it is considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the security system with the DEI Bitwriter or a personal computer and the TechSoft Programmer, the full triggered response can be programmed for any duration ranging from 1 to 180 seconds.
Your dealer can eliminate any of these tones, resulting in a unique, easily identifiable siren sound. Siren chirps can be either full volume or 6 decibels quieter than full alarm blast. Additional installation labor may be required. Installation Options The system has many options that may require extra parts and labor. Some of the possibilities are listed here.
Vehicle Recovery ® System (VRS ) The optional Vehicle Recovery System feature is designed to ensure that any unauthorized user of your vehicle (even if using your keys and remote control) will not be able to permanently separate you from your vehicle. The VRS feature cannot prevent a carjacking attempt, however, it does ensure that if your vehicle is taken by an unauthorized user, it will be disabled (after several progressive warnings) as safely as possible.
Arming The VRS To arm the VRS, press the arm button on the remote while the vehicle’s ignition is on. Once the system is armed, it will go into its triggered sequence (see below) if any door is opened and closed. If you are forced from the vehicle, the VRS system will trigger when the door is opened and then closed as you leave the vehicle. This is how the system works to combat intersection carjacking. If ordered from the vehicle, you may arm the VRS before exiting.
From this point forward, when the ignition key is turned off, the VRS will immediately turn on the FailSafe starter kill. This will prevent the vehicle from being restarted, thus immobilizing it at that spot. Three minutes after the constant siren output begins, the flashing parking lights and the siren will stop. The starter kill will remain active until the system is disarmed.
If the system has entered the full triggered sequence (siren full volume), pressing the DRW-35 disarm button of the transmitter will not disarm VRS. You must turn the ignition to the on position and press the Valet switch. The system can also be disarmed by pressing the Ghost Switch the programmed number of times to disarm the VRS system. NOTE: The system can be programmed by your dealer for Ghost Switch only disarm mode. In this mode, the Valet switch will have no affect on the VRS full trigger sequence.
LED: Red light mounted somewhere in the vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system. It is also used to report triggers and faults in the system or sensors. Shock Sensor: This system is packaged with a DoubleGuard® Shock Sensor. This sensor is mounted in the vehicle and designed to pick up impacts to the vehicle or glass. Siren: Noise generating device usually installed in the engine compartment of the vehicle.
Security & Convenience Expansions Here we have listed only some of the many expansion options available. Please contact your dealer for a complete explanation of all the options available to you. All security and convenience expansions require additional parts and labor. Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is established by the 508D “radar” sensor. Your system can react to any intrusions into this field with the triggered sequence.
factory release is not power activated, DEI's 522T trunk release solenoid can often be added. Valet® Start System: For the ultimate in convenience, the Valet® start system can start your vehicle, monitor engine functions, and power your climate control system with a push of a button! Overrev protection, open-hood lockout, brake pedal shutoff, and automatic timer shutoff are all included. (Only for automatic transmission, fuel-injected gasoline vehicles).
