nuisance prevention® circuitry
Your system has Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry (NPC). This circuitry prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.
Here's how it works:
The alarm triggers three times. [. . . ] It houses the microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the alarm's functions. Failsafe® Starter Kill (if equipped): 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 feature, however installation of this feature may require additional labor. [. . . ]
