Your Crime Guard security system includes an accessory sensor which
detects impact to the vehicle, which greatly increases the seurity system’s
effectiveness.
• A heavy impact will fully activate the alarm, sounding the siren, flashing

the lights and relocking the doors.

• The impact operation of the sensor is dual zone- the system responds to

a light impact by “Prewarning”, which is chirping the siren three times and
relocking all of the doors.

• If the Prewarning circuit is triggered five times within a single system

armed period, the Prewarning circuit only will automatically shutdown
until the security system is disarmed, and then armed again.

Page 16

Bypassing the Sensor: 

Should it be desired, when the security system is

armed, the impact and glass breakage sensor can then be turned off.

BACKUP BATTERY

• When the sensor is bypassed; all of the system’s other protected zones are

still operational.

• The sensor will remain off until the next time the system is armed in the

regular fashion..

This security system is equipped with a backup battery which will provide
an alternative power source to operate the Crime Guard system should the
vehicle's battery is disconnected.

           To  Bypass the Sensor:
         FIRST- Arm the System normally with the Upper Left

    “Lock” Button (     ), THEN within 4 Seconds Press
     & Release the Lower Left Button (   )

••

U

While operating on the backup battery, the system will not flash the

parking lights, nor the Status Light.  The siren will continue to operate, all
protected entry zones will continue to be monitored, and the Starter Interrupt
will operate while the system is armed.  The backup battery should be
replaced every 18 months, or any time the backup battery has operated the
system on its own.  The backup battery is inside the system’s control module,
so it is best replaced by a qualified installer.

Your system is equipped with three separately programmable Vehicle
Recovery protection features, which also provide Anti-Carjacking protection.
The Vehicle Recovery operation may be selectively activated by the ignition,
by an open door, or by the transmitter.

How It Works

:

Once the Vehicle Recovery process has begun, the user has 53 seconds  to
cancel the process by pressing the Valet Switch once.  If Vehicle Recovery
is not cancelled, 53 seconds after being activated the siren will begin to chirp
for 7 seconds to alert the user that the system is about to enter into an alarm
condition.  The Valet Switch may still be pressed once during this period to
cancel the Vehicle Recovery process.

If the Vehicle Recovery process is not cancelled before the 60 second

countdown expires, the system will enter an alarm condition, sounding the
siren and flashing the parking lights.   30 seconds after this occurs, or should
the ignition be turned off in the meantime, the stater interrupt will engage.

Once the system enters the alarm condition, it will not respond to the

transmitter, nor will the system reset automatically after 60 seconds, and it
can only be disengaged by:

VEHICLE RECOVERY

Level #1: Vehicle Recovery activated by the vehicle’s ignition:

The Vehicle Recovery process is started every time the vehicle’s ignition is
turned on.  This is programmable feature #14.

Step 3

Within 5 seconds, perform an Emergency Override using the
Valet Switch.  If the SecureCode has been customized, the correct
number of Valet Switch presses must be made (page 22).

Step 2

Turning the ignition back on.

Step 1

Turning the vehicle’s ignition off.
