THIS PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED
BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER.
When this product is installed in a manual transmission vehicle,
the installation must be done with a manual interface
(not included - No. RS-MI).
IMPORTANT NOTICE
TO INSTALLERS!
The control module included in this kit must be interfaced according to the
type of vehicle in which it is installed. The control module won’t, IN ANY
WAY, monitor the position of the gearshift lever during a remote start.
It is factory set to "Manual Transmission" mode.
See Stage 1 - Level 16 on page 22 for programming options.
• For vehicles equipped with a MANUAL TRANSMISSION
you must pay
special attention to the instructions identified with the following
pictogram and follow the corresponding instructions.
• When this product is installed in a manual transmission vehicle,
the installation must be done safely
using a manual interface
(not included – part no. RS-MI). This module is designed to force the user to ensure
that the gearshift lever is in neutral and that the parking brake is activated for the
system to proceed to ready mode for remote start.
• Make sure you deliver the User Manual to the customer
• Make sure you post the two warning labels in the appropriate locations:
the smaller one must be visible in the driver's side window;
the other must be placed near the hood release lever.
•
Make sure you hang the "For your safety" card on the rear-view mirror.
• Also make sure all verifications and testing (for automatic or manual transmission
vehicle) is done before and after the installation is done.

VERIFICATIONS AND TESTING TO BE DONE
BEFORE THE INSTALLATION
To ensure that the installation and the use of this product are safe,
you must
follow the instructions in this manual.
Please pay special attention to the following points.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION VEHICLE
• Ensure that the vehicle cannot be remote started when in gear. Also ensure that the gearshift
lever cannot
be moved out of the "Park" position without first applying the brakes.
If it is possible to crank the engine while the gearshift lever is in gear, or if you can
move the gearshift lever out of "Park" position without pressing on the brakes,
contact our Technical Assistance Department at 1-800-461-8223. A technical
advisor will help you with an appropriate and safe solution based on the make and
model of the vehicle on which you are working.
• Once the installation is completed, you must check ALL safety devices described in the "POSTINSTALLATION AND SECURITY TESTS" on page 26 of this guide.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLE
• Make sure you have in hand a “manual interface module” part no. RS-MI (not included)
specially made to safely install the remote starter in a manual transmission vehicle.
•
Make sure that all door pin switches work and that the parking brake is operational (i.e. it can
immobilize the vehicle). These security features must be operational before the installation of the
remote starter.
•
Make sure it is impossible to access the gearshift lever without opening a door or the
hatchback.
If the gearshift lever can be accessed without opening a door (i.e. convertibles) or if
opening any one door does not break the safety sequence, we strongly
recommend adding a motion detector (microwave) to prevent a start if any activity
is detected near the gearshift lever. See details on the manual interface
instructions.
•
Once the installation is completed, you must check ALL safety devices described in the
"POST-INSTALLATION AND SECURITY TESTS" on page 26 of this guide. Make sure the
opening of each door and/or of the hatchback (one at a time) breaks the safety sequence that
normally allows the system to initiate a remote start sequence.

Quick Guide for Skilled Installers
This section of the installation manual is intended for experienced installers of remote starter and
mobile security products. Only the most frequently needed information are included in the following few
pages. It has been laid out to quickly access connection and operational details to maximize your
installation performance.
If, for any reason, additional information is required on a specific wire, refer to the “Detailed Description”
section on page 9.
Note concerning vehicles equipped with an immobilization system
When the remote starter is installed on a vehicle equipped with a transponder type immobilization
system, it is preferable to complete the installation of the control module and to test it before
proceeding with the connection of the interface that neutralizes the vehicle's immobilization system
(Starter Kill). See details in “Step 2: Full Start Test” on page 25
Each wire that provides a (-)
output can supply only one
single standard Bosch
style automotive relay.

You may believe that a product as versatile as this one would be a programming nightmare. In most cases, you will
not need to change a setting from the factory default programming
Consult the following charts to determine if the defaults work for the installation. If no changes are required, move to
the testing phase of the installation on page 25. If, for any reason, changes to the default programming are required,
please become familiar with the programming charts, beginning on page 17.
