Your Warranty  
It is necessary to retain your proof of purchase, which reflects that  
the product was installed by an authorised dealer. For full details  
regarding your warranty coverage, please refer to the Consumer  
Warranty section of this guide.  
Remote Controls  
Included with your system: one AviGlo 4-button/10-channel  
remote and one AviGlo 2-button/3-channel remote. Once exposed  
to light, the AviGlo remote control buttons will glow, making them  
visible in the dark.  
The remote control is a miniature transmitter powered by a small  
(+) 3 volt lithium battery. Obstructions, electrical or radio inter-  
ference, weather conditions, window tint, or a discharged battery  
can reduce range. Your transmitter is the key to your system and  
can be used to arm and disarm your alarm, lock and unlock your  
doors, open your boot, and control optional accessories such as a  
remote engine starter*, window roll-up, and garage door opener.  
Your system can accept up to four AviGlo remote controls.  
Additional remote controls and remote control batteries can be  
purchased from any authorised Avital dealer or by calling the UK  
office (freephone number noted in the back of the guide).  
* This accessory is not evaluated by Thatcham.

System Maintenance  
2
The Maxx system requires no maintenance except for remote con-  
trol battery replacement when they reach the end of their useful  
life. When the battery weakens, operating range will be reduced  
and the LED will dim. To replace your remote control battery use  
the following procedure.  
Remote Control Battery Replacement  
To replace the battery in your AviGlo remote control, follow the  
instructions below.  
1. Carefully pry apart the two halves of the remote control with  
a small flat-bladed screwdriver. The bottom right-hand corner  
of the remote casing has a small indent to allow the screw-  
driver access.  
2. The lithium battery is the round silver disc, about the size of  
a five pence piece. Remove the old battery from the metal  
clip. You should note that the (+) side of the battery should  
face up and the (-) side should face the circuit board. Slide  
the new replacement battery into the metal clip.  
3. Re-align the two halves of the enclosure and snap together.

System Features  
Stealth Coding Technology  
Stealth Coding technology offers the most advanced protection  
available against code-grabbing devices which thieves may use to  
record the digital code transmitted by your remote control. When  
you leave the area, thieves can then play back the code to unlock  
the doors and de-activate your system. Avital’s remote controls  
with Stealth Coding randomly change the code every time you use  
them, and your system will not respond if any code is re-transmit-  
ted. This technology makes code-grabbing devices useless.  
Electronic Scan Prevention (ESP)  
Your system includes Electronic Scan Prevention (ESP), which  
blocks electronic scanner codes preventing unauthorised operation  
of your system. A thief could use an electronic “scanner” to con-  
tinuously scan through thousands of different transmitter codes in  
2
an attempt to find one that will disarm your system. Your Maxx  
system uses ESP technology to render this type of attack useless.  
Interior Light Illumination  
When the alarm system is remotely disarmed, the vehicle interior  
light(s) will turn on for 30 seconds or until the ignition key is  
turned on.

Valet Switch  
The Valet switch is a small push-button switch that allows you to  
control all of the system’s programmable features and enter your  
override PIN code. (See User-Programmable Features section of this  
guide.) This switch can only be controlled in conjunction with  
your ignition key.  
NOTE: Make sure the dealer has shown you where the Valet switch is  
located. You will need to disarm the system with the Valet switch in the  
event of a lost or stolen remote control.  
Keyless Entry in Valet Mode  
While the system is in the Valet mode, you can still use your  
remote control to lock and unlock the doors as well as activate any  
optional accessories, such as boot release or remote engine starter.  
Ultrasonic Sensors  
2
Your Maxx security system incorporates two Ultrasonic sensors,  
which are most commonly mounted at the top of the A-pillars fac-  
ing the rear of the vehicle. These sensors detect movement inside  
the vehicle by sensing air disturbance. They should trigger the  
alarm if a thief gained access to the interior of your vehicle.  
Instant Remote Control Code Deletion  
In the event of a lost or stolen remote control, all remote controls  
can be erased from the systems memory preventing unauthorised  
system operation. (See the Programming Table for Remote Controls  
section of this guide.)

One-Step Remote Control Code Learning  
Your system allows you to add new remote controls in one step. (See  
the Programming Table for Remote Controls section of this guide.)  
Alarm State Memory  
If your vehicle battery is disconnected and later reconnected, the  
system will automatically return to its last state before power was  
removed, whether it was armed, disarmed, or in Valet Mode. For  
example, if a mechanic were to disconnect the battery while the  
alarm was disarmed or in Valet Mode, the alarm will not trigger  
when the battery is reconnected. If power is removed and then  
restored while the alarm is armed, the systems battery back up  
siren will instantly sound and the indicator lights will flash.

Protected Valet Mode  
You should place your system in Protected Valet Mode whenever  
your vehicle is being fueled or washed, or whenever the passive  
arming is not required for a short period. The Valet PIN code num-  
ber for your system is noted on the back of this guide.  
Note: To change your PIN code refer to How to Change Your PIN Code sec-  
tion of this guide.  
If the system was armed and a thief were to break into your vehi-  
cle and begin entering codes at random in an attempt to disarm  
the alarm, the system will lock out (indicated by a triple flash  
sequence of the LED) and begin sounding the siren for two min-  
utes. During this period the system will ignore further attempts to  
enter the code. Even a correct code entry will be ignored. The siren  
can be silenced and the system disarmed by pressing the  
button on the remote control two times.

Features  
Passive Arming  
Turn the ignition key OFF, exit the vehicle, and close the doors.  
When the interior lights turn off, the LED will begin flashing rap-  
idly to indicate the alarm has begun it’s passive arming count-  
down. After 60 seconds, the siren will chirp twice, the indicator  
lights will flash twice, and the system’s LED will begin the double-  
flash sequence explained in the Active Arming section.  
NOTE: The alarm can be actively armed with the  
or  
button on  
the remote control at any time during the passive arming countdown.  
Passive Arming With Door Lock  
The system is factory preset not to lock the doors when the alarm  
passively arms (unless Auto-rearm and lock is programmed on) to  
prevent the keys and remote from being locked in the vehicle. If  
you prefer, you can easily program the alarm to automatically  
lock* the doors every time the alarm passively arms. (See the  
Programming Table for System Features section of this guide.)  
*Requires connection to your vehicle's existing central locking system.

Auto-Rearm and Lock  
When Auto-rearm and lock is used in conjunction with the passive  
arming feature (i.e. both are turned ON) the following will occur:  
If after driving you turn the ignition off and exit the vehicle by  
opening and closing a door, the system will passive arm but NOT  
lock the doors in case you have left your keys inside the car.  
If the alarm is disarmed only and you open and then close a  
door, the system will passive arm but NOT lock the doors,  
again in case you left your keys inside.  
If you disarmed the alarm but did not open a door, the sys-  
tem will auto-rearm and lock the doors.* As you did not open  
a door the system assumes you are outside the vehicle and  
the keys are not inside.  
* Requires connection to the vehicle’s existing central locking system.  
Ignition-Controlled Door Lock/Unlock  
For the ultimate in security and convenience, the system is pro-  
grammed to automatically lock your doors when the ignition key  
is turned ON or the engine is started*, and will unlock when the  
ignition key is turned OFF. This feature can be programmed ON or  
OFF. (See the Programming Table for System Features section of  
this guide.)  
NOTE: If this feature is turned on and you need to open a door to let  
someone in or out of the car when the ignition is on, you can press the  
button to unlock the doors and again to re-lock after the doors  
have been closed.  
* Requires connection to the vehicle’s existing central locking system.

Long-Term Silent Arm/Disarm  
This feature allows you to completely disable the arm/disarm siren  
chirps until you decide to restore them. (See the Programming  
Table for System Features section of this guide.)  
Door Ajar Indication  
When you remotely arm the alarm system and a door is ajar, the  
siren will chirp twice, then three times (the indicators will flash  
the same number of times as the siren chirps). This feature pro-  
vides audible and visual indication to prevent battery drain if a  
door was inadvertently left open. (See the Programming Table for  
System Features section of this guide.)  
NOTE: If your vehicle has an interior light delay, this feature will be  
turned off.  
Dual-Sensor Trigger Mode  
The system has the facility to add extra sensors such as the 508D  
Proximity sensor. If an additional sensor has been added to the  
system and the Dual-Sensor Trigger Mode feature is turned ON, the  
system will require both the built-in Ultrasonic sensor and the  
additional sensor to be activated at the same time in order to trig-  
ger the alarm system. This is especially useful on convertible vehi-  
cles as the alarm can be armed even when the roof is down or at  
times when you wish to arm the alarm and leave the windows  
open.

Expansions  
Listed below are some of the many expansion options available.  
Please consult your dealer for a complete explanation of all the  
options available to you.  
Audio Sensor - Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking  
glass produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio  
sensor uses a microphone to pick up sounds, then analyses  
them with proprietary acoustic software to determine if the  
glass has been struck.  
Backup Battery - The 520T keeps the system armed and trig-  
gers the alarm if the main battery is disconnected.  
Bonnet Lock - Prevents the vehicle’s bonnet from being  
opened without a key, keeping thieves away from the sys-  
tem’s siren, the battery connections, and other components  
under the bonnet.  
Field Disturbance Sensor - An invisible dome of coverage is  
established by installing the 508D “radar” sensor. Your system  
can react to any intrusions into this field with the full trig-  
gered sequence.  
Remote Starter - A remote engine starting system designed  
for fuel-injected automatic transmission vehicles. The 551T is  
activated by pressing a spare button on your remote control.  
NOTE: The Remote Starter has not been evaluated by Thatcham.

Electric Boot Release - The accessory output of the system  
can operate a factory electric release for the vehicle’s boot or  
hatch. Although the on-board circuit can control some elec-  
tric factory releases, an optional relay is usually required. If  
the factory release is not electric-activated, Directed®'s 522T  
boot release solenoid can often be added.  
Electric Window Control - Automatic electric window control  
is provided with the 529T and 530T systems. These can oper-  
ate electric windows, and can roll them up automatically when  
the system is armed, roll them down, or both up and down.  
Glossary of Terms  
Control Unit - The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under-  
neath the dash area of the vehicle. The control unit houses the  
microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all sys-  
tem functions.  
Input - A physical connection to the system. An input can be pro-  
vided by a sensor, pinswitch or by existing systems in the vehicle,  
such as ignition or courtesy lights.  
LED - A red light mounted at a discretionary location inside the  
vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system.

Transmitter - A hand-held, remote control which operates the var-  
ious functions of your system.  
Trigger or Triggered Sequence - This is what happens when the  
alarm “goes off” or “trips.” The triggered sequence of your system  
consists of the siren sounding and indicators flashing.  
Valet Switch - A small push-button switch mounted at a discre-  
tionary location inside the vehicle. It is used to override the alarm  
system when a transmitter has been lost or damaged, and to enter  
Valet Mode.  
Warning Zone Response - If a dual-zone sensor is added to the  
system and the light touch or outer-zone trigger is activated, the  
system will generate the warning zone response. This consists of  
several seconds of siren chirps.  
Zone - A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognise as  
unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular  
zone. Often two or more inputs may share the same zone.
