YOUR “ ANTI -CODE GRABBING “ TRANSMITTERS
The transmitters included with your new remote start system use the most ad­vanced and secure form of radio frequency transmission available on any current automotive remote system. Some of today’s sophisticated auto thieves use a device known as a code grabber, which will receive and store the signal from your keychain transmitter, and re-transmit it at a later time to disarm your system. Y our anti-code grabbing transmitters will change their signal every time the button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then re-transmits your signal, the alarm system

If your transmitter button is pressed more than fifty times while it is out of range of the vehicle ( children playing with your keys ), the transmitter will not operate when you return to the vehicle and will need to be re-aligned to the receiver. To do this, simply press button 1 two times within a one second time period. The system will now respond to that transmitter each time a button is pressed. For reference the transmitter packaged with your AA-RS30CS is shown with num­bers referring to the text below.
