DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Warning systems use either buzzer or chime module to warn driver of several conditions
- LIGHTS ON (Chime Only) Warns driver lights are on. If headlights or parking lights are on and ignition switch is turned to OFF, LOCK or ACC position, alarm is activated. Alarm remains on until lights are turned off.
- IGNITION KEY (Buzzer Or Chime) Warns driver key is in ignition. If driver's door is open and key is in ignition with ignition OFF, alarm is activated. Alarm remains on until driver's door is closed or key is removed from ignition.
