Glossary of Terms
Control Unit: The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under-
neath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor
which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the alarm's functions.
Failsafe® Starter Kill: An automatic switch controlled by the
security system which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking
whenever the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from
cranking when the system is disarmed, in valet mode, or should
the starter kill switch itself fail. Your system is ready for this fea-
ture; however, installation of this feature may require additional
labor.
