The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to

conditions where the system will give you a false
alarm. If one of the previously described arming
sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security

the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle
and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this
occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the
bat
tery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will remain armed when the
battery is reconnected; the exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs,
disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
Rearming Of The System
If something triggers the alarm, and no action is
taken to disarm it, the Vehicle Security Alarm
will turn the horn off after 29 seconds, 5
seconds between cycles, up to 8 cycles if the
trigger remains active and then the Vehicle
Security Alarm will rearm itself.
DOORS
CAUTION!
Careless handling and storage of the
removable door panels may damage the
seals, causing water to leak into the vehicle’s
interior.
