User Discretion Silent Arming :  
Your Carbine security system can be instructed to become armed or disarmed without the horn/siren chirps by  
the remote transmitter. To operate this feature at any time, simply press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons at the  
same time to arm or disarm your security system without the chirp indications.

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 2 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.  
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 module is installed, the vehicles engine will not crank when the alarm system is in the armed  
mode.  
Option #6: Unlock Drivers Door First (Requires option #1 to be installed)  
Installing option #6 will allow your Carbine security system to unlock only the drivers door upon disarming  
the security system. To unlock the remaining doors, press the UNLOCK button once again within 3 seconds  
of disarming the security system. The remaining doors will become unlocked.  
Option #7: Dual Zone Shock Sensor  
Installing option #7 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.

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. (Refer to the remote control transmitter drawing at the beginning of this  
manual)  
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.
