TEMPORARY DISABLE
On occasions where you may wish to leave a pet in your vehicle, or leave your windows down while having
optional ultrasonic sensors fitted, you can temporarily disable the trigger inputs that would cause an
unwanted trigger i.e. you can disable for one arming period the impact sensor, ultrasonic or microwave
sensors if fitted, and voltage drop sensing. The alarm will still trigger from door, boot, bonnet, and ignition
inputs. To activate temporary disable, when arming press BUTTON 1 or BUTTON 2 twice in a row with a 1
second pause between the first & second presses. You will be given a confirmation chirp for each press.
EMERGENCY PANIC BUTTON
The panic feature is activated by pressing & holding BUTTON 2 on the remote control transmitter for 3
seconds. If disarmed, the alarm system will arm first (i.e. lock doors) then the siren will sound & the blinkers
will flash for 30 seconds. If armed, the alarm system will stay armed (i.e. the doors will not unlock) & the
siren will sound & blinkers flash for 30 seconds.
To cancel “panic”, follow disarm procedure as desribed on page 1.
NOTE: Panic does not work when the ignition is on by requirement of Australian Law (EPA-Environmental
Protection Authority).
PRE-ALERT (2 STAGE) IMPACT WARNING
This special feature provides a two stage impact sensing system. It gives the security conscious owner a
sensitive car body impact sensor that will give a potential thief prior warning that the vehicle is protected by
this most formidable alarm system. On detection of a low level impact i.e. from a tyre kick, the siren will
simply beep 5 times to warn away the would-be thief. If the vehicle is attacked any further, the system will
move into full siren mode. The sensitivity level reference point can be adjusted to suit your particular needs.
Please refer to the programming section contained later in this manual.
PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES:
The features outlined below are the most popular that can be turned on or off to suit your requirements.
Please refer to the section is this manual marked “Rhino Programmable Features” for full details.
PASSIVE ARMING: The alarm can automatically arm itself 30 seconds after you leave your vehicle provided
that the ignition is turned off, and that at least one door has been opened and closed ie. the owner has
parked and has exited the vehicle. This feature will not lock the vehicle where central locking is connected.
AUTOMATIC RE-ARM : This feature prevents accidental disarming by the owner ie. the owner turns the
alarm off but is then distracted and forgets that they have deactivated the system. If a door is not opened,
or the ignition is not turned on within 60 seconds from when the system is turned off by the remote, the
system will re-arm, and if central locking is connected, it will re-lock the vehicle.
SILENT ARM/DISARM : This feature when turned on, stops the siren from beeping for arm & disarm
confirmation i.e. only the blinkers will flash.
LEARNING NEW REMOTES (Up to 3 remotes can be used with this alarm system)
Before entering this mode,make sure you have all remotes present that you wish yo utilise with this alarm
system, as the alarm automatically erases all remotes when you enter this mode.
A. Arm then Disarm the alarm system. While the system is disarmed, open and close your drivers door (get
inside the vehicle), making sure the interior light is coming on as you open the door.
B. Within 30 seconds, turn the car ignition key from the off position to the ignition on position 20 times.
C. 30 seconds later, the blinkers will flash 3 times to confirm that you have entered the remote learning
mode. Repeat steps A & B if you do not receive the flashes.
D. Now press & hold the button on the new remote you wish to learn in. The siren will beep once to confirm
the code has been learnt. Repeat this step for up to 3 remotes. You can use this process to delete lost
remote controls by learning in the same remotes in succession to replace each of the 3 memory
locations so that the old remote code/s are erased.
E. The system will automatically exit the learning mode 15 seconds after the last press of a remote.
