B
. Enter 1 1 1 9 on the keypad
3 Rapid Beeps

seconds and listen for 3 Rapid Beeps
. You’re done! Try the new Master User Code and the door will
unlock. If it doesn't, please read the following paragraph to see if you made an error or skipped a step while
programming.
Note
: When using or programming your system you must make each keystroke within 5 seconds of the
previous keystroke or the system will timeout and reset to normal operation. 2 Rapid Beeps signal system
reset. If the system resets before you have completed changing the Master User Code, you must start over by
pressing the System Programming Switch. 1 Long Beep signals an error has been made during the
programming sequence. Don't worry. Start over by pressing the System Programming Switch.

Code Padding
If you feel you are being observed when you enter your code on the keypad you can "pad" your code by
entering several random digits before you enter your actual code and still have the door unlock. For instance, if
your code is 1 3 9 1 you can enter 5 7 1 3 9 1 and the door will unlock.
What code combinations are restricted
Codes 559, 557, and 555 are pre-assigned as Lock Codes. There is no harm if everybody knows the Lock
Code. However, you can't change a Lock Code so you can't use 559, 557, or 555 as the Master User Code or
as an Optional User Code.
Furthermore, you may not program a new Master User Code or Optional User Code that starts with the digits 5
or 6 (Key 5/6). If you want a 5 or 6 at the beginning of your code start with 05 or 06. Example: 05 05 68 (a birth
date).
Caution:
Do not program codes, which are part of other codes (optional or the master code). For example:
Master Code of 1-2-3-4-5 and an optional code of 1-2-3. If you do, you will have to press the System
Programming Switch and program a new Master User Code.
What code combinations are not recommended
- Using your ATM PIN number or computer passcodes
- Short codes using the same digit - example: 111
- Simple codes - example: 123 or 911
- The numbers on your car’s license plate
How to add Optional User Codes and what they are for
You can add up to 5 Optional User Codes in your Keyless Entry Keypad System if you wish. What are they
for? You might want to have an Optional User Code to give to a family member or a friend if you need to lend
them your vehicle temporarily. You can change it or delete it later. You might want another Optional User Code
to give to a valet parking attendant or to a smog checker or service mechanic at the dealership. There might
be other reasons you need to give someone else access to your vehicle when you are away and are not
comfortable leaving a set of keys behind (after all, anyone can get a key copied at the local hardware store).
Remember; don't give out your Personal Master User Code instead of an Optional User Code. That way you
won't have to worry about changing your own code.
Refer to the KE-1701 User Code Guide Form included
with your system for User Code programming steps.
How to enter a Lock Code
Enter either 559, 557, or 555 Lock Codes. See the Convenience Code Mode section at the end of this Guide
to understand why you might want to use Lock Code 555 instead of Lock Code 559 or 557.
4. Using Standard Outputs
-
Unlocking and Locking
Your system has several standard outputs. One output is used to unlock the power door locks and another one
is used to lock the door locks. Depending on your type of vehicle and how your installer has hooked up the
system, you may be able to unlock only the driver's door or all of the doors.
