4 Button Remote Start Security System With
Plug-In Shock Sensor & Starter Disable
IMPORTANT ! In order to provide you with the highest level of security to your
vehicle, this system is equipped with selectable manual override circuitry. It is
possible that you will need to override you security system if the transmitter
becomes lost, or inoperative due to battery failure. Reading the sections on
"Manually Overriding Your System" is necessary to fully understand the procedure
required to enable your vehicle in such situations. In addition, the chart on the last
page of this manual has a section for the particular features and options installed
in your vehicle as well as the override method selected. Although the default
mode is "Valet Switch" operation, the system can be configured for "Custom
Code" operation for enhanced security. Confirm the override mode selected on
the last page of this manual, and familiarize yourself with the section on it's opera-
tion.

known as a code grabber, which will receive and store the signal from your
keychain transmitter and re-transmit at a later time to disarm your system.
Your Keeloq Code Hopping transmitters will change their signal every time the
button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then re-transmits your signal, the alarm
system will not respond.
If your transmitter button is pressed more than fifty times while it is out of range of
the vehicle (children playing with your keys), the transmitter will not operate when
you return to the vehicle, and will need to be re-aligned to the receiver. To do this,
simply press button 1, (lock), two times within a one second time period. The
system will now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed.
NOTE: This system is custom configurable and can be set up to operate with a
number of options controlled from any transmitter button or button com-
bination. For reference, we will describe operation assuming that your
system is programmed for separate lock and unlock buttons. Also refer-
ence will be made to the icons as shown on the buttons below.
NOTE: The LCD based remote will be explained in detail further in this manual
See "System Status" described later in this manual. Consult your instal-
lation center if your system has been configured differently.
NOTE: Your system has the option of using a siren, the vehicle horn, or both for
the sounding device. Where the siren is referenced below, the horn or
both may in fact chirp, or beep.

will not automatically lock during passive arming.
PROTECTION WHILE THE SYSTEM IS ARMED
þ Opening any protected door, hood or trunk lid will cause the alarm to
immediately sound. The alarm will continue to sound for 30 seconds,
then stop and continue to monitor all protected entry points. If the thief left
a door opened, the alarm will sound for six 30 second cycles, remain
armed and ignore that triggered zone.
þ Whenever the system is armed, the red dash mounted LED indicator will
slowly flash. This serves as a visual deterrent to the potential thief. The
LED is a very low current bulb and will not cause the vehicle’s battery to
drain, even when left unattended for extended periods.
þ Whenever the system is triggered, the vehicle’s parking lights will flash for
the full 30 second alarm cycle, attracting visual attention to the vehicle.
þ Optional - Whenever the system is armed, the vehicle’s starting circuit will
be bypassed. If the thief should choose to ignore the siren, the vehicle can
not be started.

o 2 Step Doors Unlock - Optional
NOTE: If the optional Headlamp illumination feature has been added and has
been selected for operation when disarming, as an added conve-
nience, the system will turn on the headlights when the system is dis-
armed.
WHILE THE SYSTEM IS SOUNDING
If during a triggered state, you wish to shut off the siren without disarming your
security system, simply press and release any transmitter button other than the
Unlock/Disarm button. This action will turn off the siren yet leave the vehicle fully
armed and protected. This feature is particularly useful if you are aware of children
playing near your vehicle that may accidently trigger your security system. In this
case you can cancel the siren sounding without disarming your alarm.
INTRUSION WARNING SIGNALS
This system will inform you if an intrusion attempt has occurred while you were
away from the vehicle. If an intrusion attempt has occurred, the siren will
chirp 4 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times when disarming the
system. Enter the vehicle and observe the red dash mounted LED to identify
which zone was triggered.
If the LED is flashing one time...pause...one time...pause...etc., then an
intrusion attempt was made to the shock sensor, or an accessory trigger-
ing device that may have been added to the system.
If the LED is flashing two times...pause...two times...pause...etc., then
an intrusion attempt was made to a hood or trunk pin switch that was
added to the system or to a light activated entry point if the alarm was
installed using the voltage sensing feature.
If the LED is flashing three times...pause...three times...pause...etc.,
then an intrusion attempt was made through one of the vehicle’s doors.
These intrusion warning indicators are stored in the system’s memory and will
only be erased when the ignition key is turned on.
VALET SWITCH
The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm functions, eliminating
the need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics.
Page6
When the system is in valet mode, all alarm functions are bypassed, however the
remote panic feature and remote door locks will remain operational. In addition,
the parking lights will flash to indicate locking and unlocking. To use the valet
mode, the system must first be disarmed either by using your keychain transmit-
ter or by activating your personalized manual override code.
1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition key to the on position.
2. Press and hold the valet pushbutton switch until the dash mounted
LED turns on solid. The system will remain in the valet mode.
3. To return to normal operation, press and release the pushbutton switch
any time the ignition is on.
NOTE: Always remember to return the system to normal operation. This will
ensure that the vehicle remains protected at all times.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE VALET SWITCH MANUAL OVERRIDE
Your Security System can be disarmed without the use of the keychain transmitter. This is
necessary, since you will need the ability to operate your vehicle if the transmitter is lost or
its battery fails. If your system has been selected for Valet Switch manual override as
indicated on the last page of this manual, to bypass the alarm system;
1. Open the vehicle door. The alarm will sound.
2. Turn the ignition key to the on position.
3. Within 5 seconds, press and release the valet pushbutton switch.
The alarm system will stop sounding and enter the (bypass) mode. You can now
start and operate the vehicle normally.
Typically this override mode is used only if the transmitter has become inopera-
tive.
Programming Your Custom Override Code:
Unlike override switches easily found, and defeated, this security system allows the
consumer to program a personal override code, offering a higher level of security. To take
advantage of this option, programmable feature # 10 must be selected for the Custom
Code Option. Consult your installation center for programming details. The system
comes from the factory with a pre-programmed override code of 11. To change this
default override code, do the following:
1. Disarm the system by use of the transmitter, or by use of the emergency
override sequence. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet/override switch, 3 times.
3. Within 10 seconds turn the ignition switch off, on, off, on, off, on.
(The siren or horn will beep and the lights will flash one time.)
4. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen 10ths digit by pressing and
releasing the pushbutton switch from 1 up to 9 times.
5. Within 10 seconds of the last entered 10ths digit, turn the ignition switch off
then on.
6. Within 10 seconds, begin to enter your chosen units digit by pressing and
releasing the pushbutton switch from 1 up to 9 times.
7. Finish by turning the ignition switch to the off position.
Page7
If the new code was accepted, the unit will report back the newly entered code, by
flashing the LED, first indicating the 10ths digit, pause and then the units digit.
The unit will report the new code three times with a one second pause between
each code, then the system will begin arming. If the LED flash pattern reports the
previously stored code, the new code was not entered correctly. Please repeat
steps 1 through 7 above considering the following.
NOTE: Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not
recognize a 0 (Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.
NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire or if the ignition switch is turned off for
more then 5 seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert
back to the last successfully stored code.
Custom Code Programming Example:
To Change the code from the factory pre-assigned code of 11 to “52” you would do
the following:
1. Disarm the system by use of the transmitter or by use of the emergency
override sequence.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the on position.
3. Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet/override switch, 3 times.
4. Within 10 seconds turn the ignition switch off, on, off, on, off, on.
(The siren or horn will beep and the lights will flash one time.)
5. Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the pushbutton switch to set
the tenths digit.
(As per the example, press and release 5 times to set the tenths digit to 5)
6. Within 10 seconds of the last press of the pushbutton, turn the ignition switch
off then on.
7. Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the pushbutton switch to set
the units digit.
(As per the example, press and release 2 times to set the units digit to 2).
8. Turn the ignition switch to the off position. Immediately observe the LED flash
pattern.
You will note the LED flashing five times, pause, and then flash two times, pause.
This pattern will be repeated three times indicating the new code (52) has been
accepted and stored in memory.
NOTE: If after step 7, the LED flashes a code other than what was just entered,
this indicates that the code has not been changed. You will have to repeat
steps 1 through 7 above being certain to note the following:
Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not recognize a 0
(Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.
NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire, or if the ignition switch is turned off for
more then 5 seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert
back to the last successfully stored code.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM:
USING THE CUSTOM CODE OVERRIDE
Assuming the override code programmed has not been changed, and the default
override code of 11 is in the system's memory.
Page8
1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition switch to the on position.
NOTE: The siren will sound.
2. Within 5 seconds, press and release the pushbutton switch 1 time.
3. Within 5 seconds, turn the ignition switch off then on.
4. Within 5 seconds, press and release the pushbutton switch 1 time.
5. Turn the ignition switch off then on and start the vehicle.
NOTE: If you have changed the programmed override code then substitute your
new code tenths for step 2 above, and units for step 5 above.
ELIMINATING THE NORMAL ARM / DISARM CHIRPS
As explained earlier in the manual, you can eliminate the chirps selectively any
time you arm or disarm the system simply by holding the ARM or DISARM button
for two seconds. If you find the normal arming and disarming chirps annoying,
they can be turned off permanently, eliminating the need to hold the ARM / DIS-
ARM button for 2 seconds. To do this,
1. Turn the ignition key on then off.
2. Within 10 seconds, press and release valet switch three times.
3. If the chirps were on before you started, then you will hear two chirps indicat-
ing they have been turned off.
If the chirps were off before you started, then you will hear one chirp indicating
they have been turned on.
NOTE: Whenever the chirps are bypassed, the 4-chirp intrusion indicator
and 3 chirp defective zone indicator will always operate. Since these are
important warnings to you that something has happened, they cannot be
eliminated.
NOTE: Your systemmust be programmed by the installation center to en-
able this feature.
REMOTE PANIC OPERATION
The Lock or Unlock button on your keychain transmitter also functions as a panic
switch for use in emergency situations. To use remote panic,
1. Press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the keychain transmitter for 3 or
more seconds. The alarm will immediately sound.
2. To stop the alarm, press and hold the Lock or Unlock button on the transmitter
again for 3 seconds. If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically
stop after 30 seconds. Also if any transmitter button other than the Lock or
Unlock button is pressed and released, the Panic mode will be turned off
immediately. The normal function of this transmitter button will be suspended
during the Panic sounding period.
3. During the panic mode, the Lock and Unlock buttons can be used to lock and
unlock the doors, (if the option is installed), however once the unlock/disarm
button is pressed, the vehicle's starter inhibit device, (where installed) will be
disabled allowing the vehicle to start.
NOTE: While in the Panic mode, pressing and releasing the Lock or Un-
lock buttons will, if the option is installed, lock and unlock the doors respectively.
While in the panic mode, anytime the Unlock button is pressed, the panic feature
will continue for the allotted 30 seconds, however, the security system will be
disarmed allowing the vehicle to start.

R F SHOCK SENSOR MODE SELECTION
The way in which your alarm system reacts to threatening vibrations, created by
attempts to enter the vehicle by breaking a window, is adjustable by the transmitter
immediately after arming. There are 4 modes of operation that can be selected
by the operator:
1. Normal Operation (default mode)
In this mode, any strong vibrations will cause the siren to sound (full
detect) for 30 seconds. Any lesser vibration will cause the siren to emit about
6 short warn away chirps, (pre-detect).
2. Stage 1 (Omit pre-detect)
In this mode, the warn away chirps created by the lesser vibration will be
deleted. If strong vibration occurs, the siren will sound.
3. Stage 2 (Omit pre & full detect)
In this mode, both the pre-detect stage and the full trigger stage of the sensor
are defeated. The unit will not react to vibration of any magnitude.
NOTE: Shock Sensor Icon Is Displayed On The LCD Panel.
4. Stage 3 (City Mode)
In this mode, the pre-detect chirps will change from six pre-warning tones to
a full 10 seconds of warning chirps.
The full detect trigger duration will be reduced from 30 seconds to 15 seconds.
NOTE: Setting the stage of the shock sensor will be effective for one arming cycle
only. Once the system has been disarmed, the very next arming cycle will
cause the sensor to default to the normal operation stage.
To change or adjust the shock sensor, press and release the ARM button of you
keychain transmitter.
1. Within 2 seconds of arming, press and release the ARM button 1 time, to
defeat the pre-detect stage of the shock sensor. (The lights will flash and the
siren will chirp once.)
2. Within 2 seconds of step 1, press and release the ARM button 2 times, to
defeat the pre and full detect stages of the shock sensor. (The lights will
flash and the siren will chirp twice.)
3. Within 2 seconds of step 1, press and release the ARM button 3 times to
enter the "City Mode" of operation. (The lights will flash and the siren will chirp
three times.)
SAFETY (Red Handled ) CONTROL SWITCH
The control switch allows you to temporarily disable the remote starting function
of your APS-995C. 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.
Page10
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.
