Alarm
The radio signal emitted from the transmitter,
which is used to set/unset the alarm, is a
"rolling code" signal. This means that the
signal is changed randomly for each
transmission and is intended to help prevent
unauthorized recording of the code.
When armed (set), the alarm continuously
monitors a number of points on the car. The
following conditions will set off the alarm:
• The hood is opened
• The trunk is opened
• A door is opened
• The ignition switch is tampered with
