The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off and the system "sees" you leave the vehicle by opening and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30second passive-arming countdown, the LED status indicator will flash twice as fast as it does when the system is armed. The siren will chirp once 20 seconds after the last door has been closed. The system is not actually armed at that point. The system arms and the doors lock (if connected and programmed for passive locking) at 30 seconds, but the siren will not chirp. The early chirp provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming. note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switchprotected trunk or hood) is open, the system will not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is programmed on.) See Programming Options section of this guide. Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over. When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows: ➤ Light impacts will trigger the Warning Zone signal. When triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash for a few seconds. ➤ Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered sequence is between 1-180 seconds of constant siren and flashing parking lights. ➤ If a vehicle door is opened, the security system will immediately start chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights. 6 © 2001 directed electronics, inc.
