Introduction
This is a state-of-the-art remote car starter system. The system is packed with advanced features
such as priority access to the driver’s door (commodity features)and the Safe Start children safety
feature.
The Remote Car Starter is available with a super-heterodyne transmitter for an operating range of
up to 1500 feet / 450 m.
With many an advanced function, this product will satisfy any one your expectations from high-end
commodity and security systems, without neglecting any standard feature commonly offered by
entry-level starters.
Using the Remote Control
Your Remote Car Starter is equipped with a 5-button multi-channel remote control. It can operate
two independent vehicles equipped with a Remote Car Starter (see Multi-Car Operation section,
later in this Guide, for second-car transmitter functions).
The functions of the transmitter are as follows:
Pressing the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously will activate the AUX 2 output.
