will sound for six 30 second cycles then shut down, isolate the triggered zone and continue  
to protect all other zones.  
Whenever the system is armed, the dash mounted LED will slowly flash. This serves as a  
visual deterrent to a potential thief. This LED is a very low current light emitting diode, and will  
not cause the battery to drain even if left unattended for long periods of time.  
Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle's parking lights will flash for the full siren  
sounding period. Optional - whenever the system is triggered, the interior courtesy light will  
flash for the full siren sounding period.  
Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle starter circuit is disabled, and the vehicle will not  
start with the ignition key.  
Whenever the system is armed, any strong impact to the vehicle will cause the shock  
detector to trigger the alarm. Any lesser impact will cause the pre-detect stage of the shock  
sensor to emit a few short series of warning tones from the siren.  
DISARMING THE SYSTEM  
As you approach the vehicle, press and release the Arm/Disarm button on the keychain  
transmitter.  
The parking lights will flash two times, the siren will chirp twice, and the dash mounted LED  
will turn off.  
If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit installed, the doors will unlock. If you have the  
optional entry illumination circuit installed, the interior light will turn on for 30 seconds or until  
the ignition key is switched on.  
Note: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted LED  
will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any door will  
suspend the automatic arming.  
If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates that the  
alarm system was triggered during your absence. Before turning on the ignition key, examine  
the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies the triggered zone.  
For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS found later in this manual.  
If the siren did not sound upon disarm, then the chirps have been turned off. Refer to the  
section titled ELIMINATINGTHEARM/DISARM CHIRPS.  
SILENT DISARMING  
1. As you approach the vehicle, press and hold the Arm/Disarm button of your key chain  
transmitter for two seconds.  
The parking lights will flash twice, and the dash mounted LED will turn off confirming that the  
system is disarmed. The siren will not chirp. If you have the optional door lock/unlock circuit  
installed, the doors will unlock. If you have the optional entry illumination circuit installed, the  
interior light will turn on for 30 seconds or until the ignition key is switched on.  
Note: If the passive arming mode was selected at time of installation, the dash mounted LED  
will start flashing rapidly indicating that the system is rearming. Opening any door will  
suspend the automatic arming.  
If the parking lights flashed three times, and the siren chirps four times, this indicates that the  
alarm system had been triggered in your absence. Before turning on the ignition key, examine  
the dash mounted LED's flash pattern. The number of flashes identifies the triggered zone.  
For additional information, refer to INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS found later in this manual.  
Page 3  
 
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNAL  
This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were away from  
the vehicle. Upon disarm, the siren will chirp 4 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times.  
Enter the vehicle and before turning on the ignition switch, observe the LED flash pattern.  
If the LED flashes one time...pause, one time...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was  
made by impact or a strong vibration that the shock sensor detected. Check the vehicle for  
possible damage to the glass or body panels.  
If the LED flashes two times...pause, two times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt was  
made to open the hood, trunk, or by an accessory triggering device. Check the vehicle for  
indications of forced entry to these openings.  
If the LED flashes three times...pause, three times...pause etc., then an intrusion attempt  
was made to the vehicle doors. Check all doors for indications of forced entry.  
Note: The LED intrusion warning indications are stored in the system's memory and will be  
erased when the ignition switch is turned on.  
VALET/SYSTEM OVERRIDE SWITCH  
The valet switch allows you to temporarily by-pass all alarm functions, eliminating the need to  
hand your keychain transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the system  
is in the valet mode, all alarm functions are by-passed, however the remote panic feature, and  
the optional remote door lock/unlock will remain operational. To enter the valet mode:  
1. Start with the valet switch in the "off" position  
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "on" position.  
3. Within 10 seconds of step 2, move the valet switch to the "on" position.  
The dash mounted LED will turn on solid indicating that the valet mode has successfully been  
entered.  
To return to the normal, (alarm mode), operation, move the valet switch to the "off" position  
any time the ignition switch is in the "on" position.  
Note: In the event that you lose your keychain transmitter or the transmitter fails to operate  
the alarm system, the valet switch can be used to disarm the alarm. To disarm the alarm:  
1. Open the door with the vehicle door key. (The siren will sound)  
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "on" position.  
3. Move the valet/override switch to the "on" position.  
The system will disarm and the vehicle can be operated normally.  
Always remember to move the valet switch to the "off" position to ensure the vehicle  
remains protected at all times.  
ELIMINATING THE NORMAL ARM/DISARM CHIRPS  
You can selectively eliminate the normal arm & disarm chirps by holding the transmitter button  
slightly longer when arming or disarming. This will prevent the siren chirps for one arm or  
disarm cycle. If you find this inconvenient and wish to eliminate these chirps permanently,  
1. Start with the valet switch in the 'off" position.  
2. Turn the ignition switch 'on" then 'off".  
3. Within 10 seconds of turning off the ignition, move the valet switch 'on", "off', "on", "off",  
"on", "off".  
4. If the chirps were on before you started, the siren will emit 2 short chirps indicating that  
the chirps are now off. If the chirps were off before you started, the siren will emit one  
Page 4  
 
short chirp indicating that the chirps are now on.  
NOTE: If the vehicle battery is disconnected then reconnected, the unit will return to the default  
setting of chirps on. Repeat the above procedure to eliminate the arm/disarm chirps.  
REMOTE PANIC OPERATION  
The arm/disarm button of your keychain transmitter also serves as a panic switch and will turn  
the alarm on from the maximum operating range of the transmitter. In an emergency situation,  
to use the panic feature, press and hold the arm/disarm button of your keychain transmitter for  
3 seconds. This will cause the lights to flash, the siren to sound, and if the optional interior  
illumination circuit was installed, the interior light will flash.  
To disengage the panic feature, press and release the arm/disarm button. If you do not shut off  
the panic feature, the system will time out and shut off automatically after 30 seconds.  
During this mode, all normal transmitter functions are operational.  
SAFETY (Red Handled ) CONTROL SWITCH  
The control switch allows you to temporarily disable the remote starting function of your  
APS-775. To disable the unit, move the red handled control switch to the off position.  
The control switch also allows you to select between 2 hour start up and 4 hour start up when  
using the automatic start up timer mode. The factory preset start up time for this mode is every  
4 hours. To select between 2 or 4 hour start up timer:  
1. Begin with the control switch in the on position  
2. Turn the ignition switch on then off  
3. Within 10 seconds, move the control switch off, on, off, on (2 switch cycles) to select a  
2 hour start timer. After 10 seconds expire, the parking lights will flash and the siren will  
chirp 2 times confirming that the two hour start cycle is set. Or, within 10 seconds move  
the control switch off, on, off, on, off, on, off, on (4 switch cycles) to select a 4 hour start  
timer. The parking lights will flash and the siren will chirp 4 times confirming that the 4 hour  
start timer is set.
