Notice
The manufacturer will accept no responsibility for any electrical damage resulting from improper installation of the product, be
that either damage to the vehicle itself or to the unit. This unit must be installed by a certified technician using all safety devices
supplied. Please note that this guide has been written for properly trained Autostart technicians: a certain level of skills and
knowledge is therefore assumed. Please reviewthe installation guide carefully before beginning any work.
Warning
This remote starter is designed for vehicles with an automatic transmission only. Before installing the unit, test that the
vehicle does not start when the gear select lever is in the “Drive” position. If it starts in gear, install a manual-transmission
remote starter system instead.

Resetting the Module (without the plug-in valet)
WARNING! By resetting the module, all programmed values are erased —i.e.: tach, transmitter as well
as programming options. The programming options are returned to their default values.
1. FLASH thehoodpin(seep.l).
2. In ten seconds or less, press and release the brake pedal 6 times.
The parking lights will flash 8 times confirming the reset.
Transmitter Programming Procedure.
1. FLASH the hood pin (see p.1)—the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Before the lights go out, turn the ignition key to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position and immediately to the OFF position.
3. Press and hold the LOCK button and keep it down until the parking lights flash 5 times quickly.
4. Thetransmitterinitsmemory.
5. To exit: close the hood.
To program a transmitter on the second vehicle for multi-car operation, you must press the TRUNK button (instead of LOCK or
UNLOCK) in step 3 of the transmitter programming procedure:
Entering Programming Options
1. Flash the hood pin switch {see p.1)—the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and then press one of the following buttons:
3. The parking lights will flash and the horn will honk (if programmed) once or twice to confirm entry into a mode.

Supplementary Information
Fifth Relay Output (2nd IGN, ACC or CRANK)
Ik m Remote car starters of this series are equipped with an on-board
Ira high-current programmable 5th relay that can be used to power a
HI second ignition, accessory or crank wire. The unit uses 3sets of
pins; each set corresponds to a specific function of the output. In
order to activate one of the three possible functions, you must place
the jumper (supplied) on one of the three sets of pins and connect
the 14 AWG wire to the second IGN. I ACC. I CRANK wire of the
vehicle.
Caution!
Only one set of pins can be used at one time. Using more than one jumper may resuit in
serious damage to the vehicle. The relay output rating on this unit is 25 a at most. Defective
oem solenoid switches can sometimes draw up to 50 or 60 a, causing the 30 a fuse to
blow. Always verify your circuit with an appropriate measuring device.
Testing
Before putting back the vehicle together, it is recommended to check that the system operates properly. The following testing
procedures should be used to verify proper installation and operation of the system. Before testing, make sure that all
connections are soldered and thatthe unit is plugged in.
□ Remote-start the engine and listen for starter drag. If the starter cranks for too long, carry out another tach
programming procedure.
□ Hood switch shutdown. With the vehicle running under the remote car starter, open the hood; the vehicle
should shut down. If it does not shut down, check the hood pin-switch and its connector.
□ Brake shutdown circuit. With the vehicle running under the remote car starter, press and release the brake
pedal. The engine should shut down immediately. If the engine continues to run, check the brake switch
connection.
□ OEM alarm control. Make sure the module is able to arm and disarm the oem alarm (if applicable).
□ Door locks and trunk testing. Make sure each of these options respond to the transmitter (if installed).
□ Starter kill option. Sit inside the vehicle with all doors closed. Arm the vehicle, then try to start the engine with
the key. They engine should not start. If the engine starts, rewire the starter kill to reach proper operation.
□ Valet mode. Make sure the remote car starter is able to properly enter and exit valet mode. When setting the
remote car starter into valet mode, pressing the lock button will lock the doors without activating the starter kill.
(refertothe user guide for further information onvalet mode.)
□ Idle mode. Make sure the vehicle properly enters and exits idle mode.
□ Most comebacks are the result of misunderstandings about how a product works or performs. Take the
time to properly explain all functions and features to the customers before they leave the premises.
Doing this will save time and money.

Multi-speed Tach Programming
1. Flash the hood pin {see p.1)—the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously—the
parking lights will flash 4 times At that point, release the brake pedal.
3. Start up the engine and allow the vehicle to reach regular engine idle speed.
4. Once the engine is running idle, press the brake pedal and keep it down until you hear the parking lights output click
5 times.
5. Release the brake pedal —the tach programming is now complete.
Horn Honk Timing
Follow these steps to program horn confirmation:
1. Ensure that the hood is up and that the ignition is off.
5. Hold the hood pin down for4 seconds.
6. Release the hood pin. The parking lights will come on.
7. While the parking lights are on, immediately push and release the hood pin again—the parking lights will stay on for up to
20 seconds.
2. Press and hold the brake pedal, then simultaneously press the UNLOCK and START buttons —the horn will chirp 5 times.
3. Release the brake pedal.
4. To change the timing:
5. To save the new settings: press LOCK and UNLOCK. If3chirps are returned the new settings have been saved.
a. To increase the Horn pulse by 3 ms, press the LOCK button.
b. To decrease the pulse by 3 ms, press the UNLOCK button.
c. To increase the pulse by 10 ms, press the START or STOP button.
d. To decrease the pulse by10 ms, press the TRUNK button.
Tach jumper settings
Some new vehicles have a higher TACH voltage
threshold, which would fall out of the normal TACH
trigger circuit of the remote car starter. Changing the
jumper to TACH Threshold HIGH will allow the
module to properly detect the TACH signal.
