What You’ll Need Before Programming
Before you begin programming your new remote, ensure you have the following:
- Your New K-9 4422-07 Remote: Make sure it’s the correct model and in new condition.
- Your Vehicle: Access to your vehicle and its ignition.
- Valet/Programming Switch: Locate your valet/programming switch. This is typically a small button discreetly placed, often under the dashboard or near the steering column. Refer to your car alarm system’s installation manual if you are unsure of its location.
- All Remotes You Wish to Program: If you have existing remotes that you want to continue using, have them ready as you will need to program them all at the same time.
Step-by-Step Programming Instructions
The standard programming method for the K-9 Mundial system is straightforward. Follow these steps carefully:
-
Turn the Ignition ON: Insert your key into the ignition and turn it to the “ON” position. Do not start the engine.
-
Press the Valet Switch 5 Times: Within 5 seconds of turning the ignition “on,” locate your valet switch and press it 5 times in quick succession.
-
Confirmation Chirp: If you’ve successfully entered programming mode, the siren or horn of your car alarm system will briefly sound (chirp). This confirms that the system is ready to learn a new remote code.
-
Press the “Lock” Button on the Remote: Take your new K-9 4422-07 remote and press the “lock” button.
-
Confirmation Chirp (Remote Learned): The system will chirp the siren or horn once again to confirm that it has successfully learned the code from your new remote.
-
Programming Additional Remotes (If Necessary): If you have more remotes to program (including existing ones), repeat step 4 for each remote within 10 seconds of the last successful programming confirmation.
-
Exit Programming Mode: If no new remote code is received within 10 seconds after step 2, the system will automatically exit the programming mode. You can also exit programming mode by turning the ignition “off”.
Important Notes:
- Timing is Key: The timing in these steps is important, especially pressing the valet switch within 5 seconds of turning the ignition on.
- Valet Switch Location: If you cannot locate your valet switch, consult your vehicle’s alarm system installation guide or contact a professional installer.
- UTA Feature: This standard programming method does not affect the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert (UTA) feature of your system.
- Genuine Product: Using a genuine K-9 remote like the 4422-07 ensures compatibility and reliable performance with your K-9 Mundial system.
