Operating Instructions
The 7111L is a 1-button remote control. Its primary function is to arm/disarm your security system or activate your remote start feature, depending on how your Avital system is configured and programmed.
- Single Press: Typically, a single press of the button will activate the primary function (e.g., arm/lock or remote start).
- Press and Hold: Holding the button for a few seconds may activate a secondary function (e.g., remote start if a single press is for arming, or panic mode).
- Green LED: Observe the green LED on the remote. It will illuminate to indicate that a signal is being transmitted.
Refer to your specific Avital system's user manual for detailed information on how the 1-button remote interacts with its various features.
