Galaxy Remote Transmitter uses a 1.5 volt AAA alkaline battery, which will require replacement in time. Depending on the amount of use, the battery may last up to 3 months before it needs replacement.

port for future expansion.
To Arm
and Lock the System:
- Turn off the ignition.
- Press Button 1. The siren/horn will chirp/honk once. The doors will lock. The parking lights will flash once. The LED will turn ON, to indicate the starter defeat is activated.

Once
Armed, the alarm will trigger when any of the following occurs: The
doors are opened. The hood or trunk is
opened. The shock sensor detects an
impact to the vehicle. An optional
sensor is disturbed.
When the
alarm triggers, the siren will sound, the horn will honk, and the parking
lights will flash. If the system is triggered by the doors, hood, or trunk, the
system will alarm for 45 seconds. If triggered by the sensor inputs, the system
will alarm for 30 seconds.
In the
event the alarm is triggered and remains triggered continuously by the same
sensor or input during a single arming cycle, that sensor or input will be
automatically bypassed until the next time the system is armed.
