Noise Abatement:  
This security system has a Noise Abatement Circuit. This circuit prevents annoying, repetitive  
false alarms by filtering out environmental conditions.  
If the security system is triggered five times or more, the circuit will interpret this as a false alarm.  
After the fifth trigger, the noise abatement circuit ignores, or bypasses that switch or sensor until  
the next switch or sensor is activated.  
Noise Abatement Circuit covers doors, hood and trunk switches differently. If the security system  
is triggered by one of these switches for three cycles, the switch will be bypassed until the trigger  
ceases.
