Alarm Features

Alarm Features (Supported Systems)

Normal Arm

Status LED: The Control Center Status LED flashes as a visual indicator that your vehicle’s security system is active.
Starter Interrupt: The starter interrupt relay prevents the engine from starting while the system is armed.
Sensor Triggers: The shock sensor can distinguish minor impacts from major impacts to the vehicle exterior. Minor impacts causes the system to emit a Warn Away output by chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights for three seconds. Major impacts caused for example by a forcible entry attempt, results in a Full Trigger output. The siren sounds and the parking lights flash for 30 seconds or longer.
Point of Entry Triggers: Opening the hood or trunk causes a Full Trigger output, while opening a Door or turning on the Ignition causes the siren to chirp three seconds before beginning the Full Trigger output. This three second delay allows time to disarm and silence the siren in case of accidental trigger.

Sensor Warn Away
When the system sensors detect a Warn Away trigger, the siren chirps and parking lights flash for three seconds.

Full Trigger
An alarm Full Trigger will sound the siren and flash the parking lights for 30-seconds and siren tones play for 30-seconds.

Emergency Override
The following procedure disarms the system when a programmed remote is not available. Number of presses .

Turn the ignition ON.
Press the Control Center button the correct number of times (the default is one press).

After a few seconds the siren output ceases, and the system is disarmed.

Note: As a precaution, if programmed for ‘Passive Arming’ or ‘Auto Re-Arming’ the system should be placed into Valet Mode until a remote is available.

Trigger Zone Fault Report
When armed by remote command the system runs a status check of the alarm trigger zones. Faulty zones (usually caused by dome light delay or open trunk) are bypassed and reported via the control center LED and remote, while all other trigger zones remain active and are monitored to protect the vehicle. Should a faulty zone self-correct (dome light turns off) it becomes active and is then monitored normally. The siren chirps once again a few seconds following the arming chirps as an audible alert, the Control Center LED flashes in groups to indicate the zone number.

Alarm Report
If the alarm was triggered while armed, it will be reported when the system is disarmed. The siren chirps four times (or five times if NPC ON), the parking lights flash three times, and the control center LED flashes in groups to indicate the last two zones that were triggered (see Table of Zones). The report output will repeat for each disarm operation until the ignition is turned ON.

Table of Zones
Zone # (led flashes)Zone Name
1	Trunk
2	Shock Sensor
3	Door
4	Sensor 2 / Instant trigger / Tilt
5	Ignition
6	Hood
7	Other Sensor (DS4 Only)

NPC (Nuisance Prevention Circuitry)
NPC monitors all alarm zones. If any zones are triggered excessively, NPC bypasses them until corrected. If a point of entry (trunk, hood, door) is left open following a forced entry, it is bypassed. It becomes active again only after being closed.

Note: Bypassed sensors automatically reset after one hour and after the Ignition is cycled. Disarming, then re-arming the alarm does not reset bypassed sensors.

Passive Arming
Park and exit the vehicle, after the doors are closed, the Passive arming countdown begins. The led flashes quickly and upon reaching 20 seconds the siren then chirps once. At 30-seconds the system arms itself. Any time before the system arms you can re-enter the vehicle or open the trunk to load or unload items and, after closing passive arming resumes. If a door is not opened within 30 seconds the system re-arms itself and locks the doors.

Auto Re-arming
Auto re-arm ensures the vehicle stays protected if it is not entered after disarming by remote control. After disarming by remote, the alarm automatically re-arms itself (and locks the doors if programmed on) in 30 seconds. Open any point of entry to stop the re-arm until the next disarm y remote.

One-time Bypass
Turn the ignition on for one to three seconds, and then off. The siren chirps once to confirm one-time bypass is enabled. One-time bypass can be used to temporarily bypass the Passive Arming operation for one cycle. After the next disarm all operations return to normal. *These features must be turned on by an Authorized Dealer.

Remote Start Features Supported Systems

Key Takeover
While remote started, ‘Key Takeover’ must be completed to keep the engine running while the vehicle transitions from Remote start to normal Key operation.

The remote start then turns off and vehicle remains running. The parking lights turn off to indicate remote start is OFF, and then after a few seconds the remote plays the Remote Start OFF message. The vehicle is ready to drive.

Note: The ‘Key Takeover’ procedure may vary by vehicle and installation. Some Push-to-Start vehicles do not allow the key takeover feature, check with your installer for more details.

Garage Mode (Remote Start Valet)

(DS3/DS4 Systems) Disabling the Remote Start System/Garage Mode Garage Mode is a safety feature that disables the remote start system if the vehicle is parked in a garage, being serviced, or used by someone unfamiliar with remote start systems.
