YOUR “CODE HOPPING” TRANSMITTERS
The transmitters included with your new remote start
1
system use the most advanced and secure form of radio 
frequency transmission available on any current automotive
2
3
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 at a later time to disarm 
your system.
Y our code hopping transmitters will change their signal every time 
the button is pressed, so when a thief grabs then re-transmits 
your signal, the alarm system 
will not
 respond.
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.
KEYLESS ENTRY
1. Button 1 on the transmitter is used to lock and unlock the vehicle's 
doors. To lock or unlock the doors simply press and release this 
button one time. As a keyless entry unit, for your convenience, the 
parking lights will flash once when the doors are locked and twice 
when the doors are unlocked.
REMOTE ST ARTING THE VEHICLE
The AA-RS10CS will not start the vehicle if any one of the following situations exists;
The vehicle's hood lid is opened. 
The gear shift selector is not in Park. 
The brake pedal is depressed. 
The safety control switch is in the Off position.

1. T o start the vehicle, press and release the second transmitter button two 
times within 2 seconds. The vehicle will start and remain running for the 
pre-programmed 10 or 15 minute run cycle. As a visual indication, the 
parking lights will flash or remain on depending on the setting by your 
installation center.
2. When you arrive at the vehicle, turn the ignition key to the ON position 
(not the spring loaded start position), then step on the brake pedal to 
disengage the remote starter. The vehicle will continue to run, but now 
on it's own power.
NOTE:The engine will stop running before the pre-programmed run
cycle has expired if you perform any one of the following 
functions;
- Press and release the KEY icon transmitter button on the 
keychain transmitter two times within 2 seconds.
- Depress the brake pedal.
- Open the vehicle's hood
- Move the safety control switch to the Off position.
SAFETY CONTROL SWITCH
The control switch allows you to temporarily disable the remote starting 
function of the system and moving this switch to the Off position is 
recommended whenever the vehicle is being serviced. When the system 
is disabled, the remote door locks and optional accessories will remain 
operational.
