Automatic Arming: (Without using the transmitter)
Note: The following information is valid only if your security system has been programmed to
automatically arm.
1. Turn off the ignition key and exit the vehicle.
2. Close all protected entrances. After the last protected entrance is closed the horn/siren will chirp one
time and the LED indicator will begin to flash fast. The fast flashing LED indicates that the automatic
arming timer is counting down and the security system will become armed within 30 seconds. After 30
seconds has passed, the security system will respond in the following manner:
A. The horn/siren will chirp one time.
B. The LED indicator will begin to flash slower.
C. The parking lights will flash one time.
D. All protected entrances are armed.
Note 1: Re-opening a protected entrance before the system becomes armed will stop the arming timer .
After closing the entrance the timer will begin counting again from zero.
Note 2: If the vehicle has a delayed interior lighting system, the automatic arming timer will start
counting after the interior lighting has turned itself off. This could add up to 45 seconds to the total
automatic arming countdown time. (Up to 75 seconds total arming delay)
The security system is now fully armed!

Alarm Mode Indicators
1. The LED indicator will provide information on 7 modes of security system operation:
LED is off = Security system is disarmed.
LED is flashing = Security system is armed.
LED is flashing fast = Automatic arming timer or RF protection mode timer is counting down.
LED is on solid = Security system is in valet mode. (Only when the ignition key is on)
LED is flashing once every 5 seconds = Security system is in valet mode (Only when ignition key is off)
LED is flashing in a 2 flash-pause sequence = Tamper warning - security system has been trigger from
the hood/trunk switch or electronic sensor.
LED is flashing in a 3 flash-pause sequence = Tamper warning - security system has been triggered
from an opened door.
2. The horn/siren will provide information on 4 modes of security system operation:
One horn/siren chirp = Security system is armed.
One horn/siren chirp + One more chirp 5 seconds after the first chirp = Security system is armed but
one of the sensors was on and the alarm has bypassed it. The remaining sensors are armed.
Two horn/siren chirps = Security system is disarmed.
Four horn/siren chirps = Tamper warning + security system is disarmed.
Upgrade Options
Option #1: Remote Power Door Lock/Unlock Control
Note: Your vehicle must have an electronic door locking system for this feature to operate.
Installing option #1 will allow the remote transmitter supplied with your Carbine security system to lock and
unlock your vehicle’s doors as it arms and disarms your security system.
Option #2: Remote Trunk/Hatch Release (CH #2)
Installing option #2 will allow the remote transmitter supplied with your security system to open your
vehicles trunk or rear hatch. Pressing the “AUX” ( ) button on the transmitter for 4 seconds will open the
*
existing power trunk/hatch release mechanism.
Note: Vehicles that are not factory equipped with an electronic trunk release system will require additional
parts than a vehicle with a factory installed trunk release system.
Option #3: Dome Light Illumination
Installing option #3 will allow your Carbine security system to turn on your vehicles interior illumination
system at the time the security system is disarmed by the remote transmitter. The interior lighting will remain
on for 30 seconds after the security system is disarmed. Turing on the ignition key will turn off the interior
illumination before 30 seconds.
Option #4: Single Zone Shock Sensor
Installing option #4 will increase the level of security provided by your Carbine security system. If the shock
sensor becomes activated the security system will immediately trigger your security system by sounding the
horn/siren and flashing the parking lights.

Upgrade Options
Option #5: Starter Disable Relay
Adding option #5 will increase the level of protection that your Carbine security system can offer. When
the starter disable relay is installed, the vehicles engine will not crank when the alarm system is in the
armed mode.
Option #6: Dual Zone Shock Sensor
Installing option #6 will increase the level of security provided by your Carbine security system. Zone #1 of
the dual zone shock sensor will detect lighter non-threatening disturbances that would normally set off most
sensors and trigger the security system. If zone #1 is activated the security system will emit a single chirp
from the horn/siren. This single chirp is a pre-warning if a would be thief is attempting to enter your vehicle.
Zone #2 detects heavier impacts that are considered threatening and immediately triggers your security
system by sounding the horn/siren and flashing the parking lights.
Programmable Features:
The following is a brief description of the operation of each programmable feature. Any adjustment to the
operation of these features must be performed by the dealer who installed your Carbine Security System. These
features are not user adjustable.
Ignition Key Controlled Door Lock/ Unlock: (Remote door lock/unlock option must be installed)
With this feature activated, the door lock system of the vehicle will become locked 3 seconds after the ignition
key is turned to the on position (All doors). When the ignition key is turned to the off position, the door locks
will immediately become unlocked (All doors).
Note: This feature has 3 modes in which it can operate. Mode #1 operates as explained above and is the
most common operation. Model #2 locks the doors when the ignition key is turned on but does not unlock
the doors when the ignition key is turned off. In mode #3 the ignition key locking feature is off.
Chirp Status Indicator Delete: (Permanent Chirp Delete)
De-activating the chirp indication system will eliminate the arm and disarm chirp indicators. For your safety,
the tamper warning chirp indicator will always be active.

automatically become armed 30 seconds after the last protected entrance is closed without requiring a signal
from the remote transmitter. (Ignition switch must be off)
Automatic Door Locking: (Remote door lock/unlock option must be installed)
If it is desired to have the vehicle’s power door locking system become locked at the same time the security
system becomes armed by the automatic arming of security system feature, the automatic door locking
programming should be on.

System Maintenance:
The only maintenance that your Carbine security system requires is a periodic check of it’s operation to be
sure that all functions are operating properly. The batteries supplied with your transmitter will usually last
about 1 year. Heavier usage will shorten battery life. Reduced transmitter range is usually a sign that the
battery in the transmitter is becoming weak and should be replaced.
Note: The battery supplied with transmitter (A) will last about 1 year. The battery supplied with transmitter (B)
and (C) will last about 6 months.
Battery Replacement:
Replacement batteries for your transmitter are available in most drug stores and camera shops. To replace
the battery, remove the small Phillips screw from the transmitter case and pull apart the top and bottom case
halves. Remove the battery from it’s holder. Insert the new battery in place of the old one observing the
batteries +/- polarity. Gently snap the top and bottom case halves together (DO NOT force them together) and
replace the Phillips screw (DO NOT over tighten the screw)
Replacement Transmitters:
In the event that the transmitter supplied with your Carbine security system becomes damaged or lost, return
to the installation facility that installed your security system to purchase a new one.
