quently locked again.If you wish, you can have the tilt alarm
sensor and interior motion sensor perma-
nently deactivated. You can have this setting

programmed with the signal of the original
hand-held transmitter.
You can use the system when the engine is run-
ning or when the ignition is switched on.
If the system cannot be operated after
repeated programming, check whether

memory button1 of the integrated universal
remote control. If the LED2 on the integrated
universal remote control flashes rapidly for a

case of an alternating-code system, program
the memory buttons1 as described in the sec-
tion below on alternating-code hand-held
transmitters.<
