Use only batteries of CR2032 type; we suggest to not throw the exhausted batteries in
the normal garbage bins, but to use the specific containers for their disposal.

2.1 - COMPLETE SYSTEM ARMING

Press the push-button nr.1 (padlock closed) of the remote control or insert the electronic key into the
specific receptacle.
The system arming is confirmed by two acoustic signals and two flashes of the turn signals.
The system has a 35” pre-arming “neutral time” (indicated by LED's permanent turning on).
2.2 - SYSTEM ARMING WITH SIREN SOUND EXCLUSION
This function allows the user to arm the alarm system, excluding the siren sound in case of a theft
attempt.
To exclude the siren, proceed as follows:
With the alarm system being disarmed, turn the ignition key to “ON” position; the status will stay on
for about one second.
During this time, push the button nr.2 (padlock opened) of the remote control.
Go away from the vehicle and push the button nr.1 (padlock closed) of the remote control.
The system will be armed with normal optical and acoustic signaling, although the latter will be not
activated in case of an effraction attempt.

The siren sound exclusion is bound to the single arming cycle.

This function is applied close to the hospitals.

PAGE 3
 2.3 - SYSTEM ARMING WITH SENSOR AND COMFORT CONTROL EXCLUSION
This function allows the user to arm the system with internal volumetric protection, external sensors
(infrared wirless), positive with system armed (+A) and comfort function excluded.
To activate this function, the system should be disarmed and the ignition key turned to the “OFF”
position; proceed as follows.
Press the push-button nr.1 of the remote; the system will be armed with normal optical and acoustic
signaling.
During the 35” of the arming neutral time, press the push-button nr.3 of the remote.
One short turn signals flashing and the LED’s turning off for one second indicate sensor exclusion.

Sensors and comfot function exclusion is bound to the single arming

cycle.

2.4 - PASSIVE ARMING

After the programming the alarm is set to be passively armed, about 30” after the vehicle switching off.
One turn signals flash, two LED flashes and two acoustic signalling will be inicate the activation
procedure starting.

In case of alarm system passive arming, internal sensors and comfort output (automatic
window closing) will be excluded .
Moreover, the vehicle’s door opening during the 30” before the passive arming, inhibit
activation temporarily.

2.5 - ARMING INHIBIT TIME

The inhibit arming time lasts for approxiately 35” and is indicated by a illuminated status LED.

2.6 - SYSTEM ARMED

After the inhibit time the system is “armed” and it is ready to detect any theft attempt.
When the system fully armed, the LED flashes.
2.7 - ALARM, INHIBIT TIME BETWEEN ALARMS AND ALARM CYCLES
As mentioned before, the alarm sysstem will indicate any theft attempt by optical/acoustic signals.
After the alarm has been triggered, before another alarm cause, there are 5“ of “neutral time” that allow
to disarm the system by emergency pin-code.

PIN-CODE changing is suggested, at user's discretion.

The alarm signalling has 8 cycles of 30” each for input and arming cycles, except the “starting
attempt” and the system power supply “cut wires”.

It’s possible cut off the alarm cycle without deactivating the system by pressing the
push-button nr.3 of the remote control.

PAGE 4
 2.8 - SYSTEM DISARMING
Press the push-button nr.2 (padlock opened) of the remote control or insert the electronic key into the
receptacle.
System disarming is confirmed by three siren acoustic signals and three flashes of the turn signals.
If an alarm condition has occurred, it will be signalled by five turn signal flashes and five acoustic
signals.
See relative paragraphs (2.9) for possible causes and signaling.
2.9 - ALARM MEMORY
In case of five turn signals flashes and five acoustic signals occurring at the system disarming, thanks
to the LED’s memory, it is possible to identify the cause which has generated the last alarm condition.
Turn the vehicle ignition key in “ON” position and look at the vehicle status LED; It will start to blinks,
shown the last alarm condition.
The optical signalling will be indicate for 5 times and this indication can be interrupted by turning the
vehicle ignition key to “OFF” position.
The possible alarm trigger signaling are indicated in the table reported below.

 3.0 - NEW PIN-CODE PROGRAMMING
The procedure to program pin-code is specified here below as previously described, it is better to
personalize as customer has required.
In this example reported below, supposing that the pin-code is 5-4-6-7.

To carry out the operation successfully, make sure the required electrical connections
(door push-button and positive under key) are complete.

During PIN-CODE programming phase, if flashes are more than 9, this phase will be
invalid and the system will close the procedure.

With the system being disarmed, open the driver side door and keep it open.
Turn the vehicle ignition ket to “ON” position.
The status LED will be turned on for one second; during this period, push simultaneously the two
buttons of the remote contol with embossed the padlocks.
After this procedure, two acoustic signals will be sent out, one with acute tone and the other with
loud tone and the LED will lighted on.
Push simultaneously the two buttons of the remote contol with embossed the padlocks; the LED will
be turned off.
Turn the vehicle ignition ket to “OFF” position.
After a four second pause, state LED will start with the first sequence of 9 flashes.
At the fifth LED flashing (corresponding at nr.5, first digit of the PIN-CODE), push and release the
button on the status LED.
After a four second pause, state LED will start with a new sequence of 9 flashes.
A the fourth LED flashing (corresponding at nr.4, second digit of the pin-code) push and release the
button on the status LED.
After a four second pause, state LED will start with a new sequence of 9 flashes.
At the sixth LED flashing (corresponding at nr.6, third digit of the pin-code) push and release the
button on the status LED.
After a four second pause, state LED will start with the last sequence of 9 flashes.
At the seventh LED flashing (corresponding at nr.7, fourth digit of the pin-code) push and release
the button on the status LED.
The system will indicate the end of the procedure by two acousic signal with low tone and one with
high tone.

 4.0 - EMERGENCY DISARMING BY PIN-CODE
The procedure for emergency disarming by pin-code is following, reported below.
Kindly note that the standard pin-code programmed is of the four digit 1-1-1-1.
The same number used for pin-code programmation (5-4-6-7) has been used also for emergency
disarming example.

During PIN-CODE disarming phase, if flashes are more than 9, the procedure will be
interpret as a theft attempt.

Cause an alarm condition.

Leave the system triggering for the standard alarm timing (about 30 seconds) and wait for the
“inhibit time between two alarm signalling” (LED switched off for 5”).
During this period push and release the push-button of the status LED.
From now and on the system is in the “emergency procedure disarming”.
After about 4 seconds the first 9 flashing sequence starts.
At the fifth LED flashing (corresponding at nr.5, first digit of the pin-code), push and release the
button on the status LED.
The LED will be switch off for about 4 seconds than a new 9 flash sequence will start.
At the fourth LED flashing (corresponding at nr.4, second digit of the pin-code), push and release
the button on the status LED.
The LED will be switch off for about 4 seconds than a new 9 flash sequence will start.
At the sixth LED flashing (corresponding at nr.6, third digit of the pin-code) push and release the
button on the status LED.
The LED will be switch off for about 4 seconds than a new 9 flash sequence will start.
At the seventh LED flashing (corresponding at nr.7, fourth and last digit of the pin-code) push and
release the button on the status LED.
If the code is right, the end of the emergency disarming by pin-code will be indicated by the alarm
with visual/acoustic signalling.
Vice versa, if the inserted numbers are wrong, the alarm will start triggering again; in this case,
repeat all procedure.

5.0 - GARAGE FUNCTION

This function is used ONLY if “system self-rearming” or “passive arming” functions

have been programmed.

This function is used when the alarm disarming is required, e.g. for maintenance, without any
intervention to the previous programming.
For procedure activation follow the indications reported below:
Arm the system and wait for the end of arming neutral time.
Put the electronic key into the specific receptacle.
Three acoustic signals of the siren and three optical signals of turn signals will indicate the system's
disarming and the above mentioned function deactivation.
To restore normal operating of programmed functions, arm the alarm via the remote control.
