BASIC REMOTE OPERATIONS
This unit is a state-of-the-art combination of a vehicle alarm and remote starter system. Start by
familiarizing yourself with the alarm functions of the unit that you need to operate first, before using the
remote starter functions. This is especially recommended if your unit is set in Passive Arming Mode,
which automatically controls the arming of your vehicle.
To start the car by remote, you must ensure that the system is NOT in VALET mode. Press the start button
(Thunderbolt), for about 1 second. Once the button has been pressed the parking light will come on to
inform you that the unit has received your signal, and has begun the start process. The car should be
running after about 5 sec. The vehicles parking lights will stay on the entire pre-programmed run cycle.
NOTE: Do not continue to press the remote once the parking lights activate. Pressing the remote
continuously for 4 seconds will activate “Cold Weather Mode” and will not start the engine.
If the vehicle doesn’t start, the Autostart will shut off, wait a few seconds, and then re-try to start the engine
again. The Autostart will try to start the engine a total of 2,3 or 4 times (programmable) before giving up.
With the vehicle running under remote control, press the Unlock button to DISARM and UNLOCK the
doors then enter the vehicle. Insert the key in the ignition and turn the key to the “ON” position. Do not
turn the key to the “START” position with the engine running, this will cause the starter motor to
reengage.
NOTE: Do not forget to leave the heather or air conditioner turned on before leaving your vehicle. So that
your vehicle can be “PRE-WARMED” or “PRE-COOLED” by remote control.

two of his/her vehicles to control both systems with one transmitter. (Both vehicles must be equipped with
an AS-4505.
The remote transmitter of the primary vehicle can control the starter disable system, the door locks and the
remote car starter and trunk operation of the second vehicle. The remote transmitter of the second vehicle
can also operate the primary vehicle
Note: The Stop button on this remote does not work.

ALARM FUNCTIONS
Your installer can program your alarm/remote starter in Passive Arming Mode, so that the system
automatically arms itself when you leave your vehicle, or in Active Arming Mode, so that you can arm or
disarm your car at will.
In either mode, you can arm or disarm your alarm system using your remote control and if your system was
installed with remote door locks, you can lock or unlock your doors at the same time.
NOTE: The alarm functions can be used and are active in the same way whether the engine is running
under the remote or not. In other words, your vehicle benefits from high security protection at all times.
ARMING AND LOCKING DOORS
PASSIVE ARM MODE
In Passive Arming Mode, the system will arm itself automatically after the completion of a 35 second
arming delay (LED flashes quickly) initiated after the last door of the vehicle is closed. Therefore, you do
not need to arm the system. The LED indicator flashes slowly when the system is armed. However,
you must lock your doors manually when leaving the vehicle.
When leaving your vehicle, perform the following:
1. Turn the Key switch OFF. The LED remains OFF.
2. Unlock if required and open the doors.
3. Once all doors are closed after exiting the vehicle, the LED will begin to flash quickly, indicating that
passive arming has begun.
Also, as long as a door is opened or if a door is opened and remains open before the completion of the
arming delay the system will not arm.
If you want to stay in the vehicle for a certain period of time, it is recommended to have your key switch in
the ON position to avoid a situation were the system arms after somebody leaves the vehicle. While your
key is in the ON position, the system will not arm and the LED stays OFF.
ACTIVE ARM MODE
To arm the system, and lock your doors (if you have this option), press LOCK button on your remote
until the siren chirps once in confirmation. Notice that the parking lights confirm the system arming by
flashing once and that the LED indicator flashes slowly to confirm the armed state. (See Chirp delete to
bypass the chirping effect).
DISARMING AND UNLOCKING DOORS
PASSIVE ARM MODE
If the system was programmed in Passive Mode, to disarm the system and unlock the doors, press and
hold UNLOCK button until the siren chirps twice in confirmation. Notice also that the parking lights
confirm the system disarming by flashing twice. Once the system is disarmed, you have to open a door
within a 35 seconds delay or else the system will rearm (LED flashing slowly) and you set off an alarm.
If the entry delay expires, you should disarm the vehicle by pressing UNLOCK button to enter the
vehicle.
Once inside the vehicle, you have up to 35 seconds to turn the key switch to the ON position or start the
car to prevent the system from re-arming again. If this is not done, your system will re-arm (LED flashing
slowly) and if your system has a starter kill, you will not be able to start the car. If this situation occurs,
you need to disarm the car with UNLOCK. button
IMPORTANT NOTE: If your car is not equipped with a starter kill, You should not start the vehicle
if the car is armed because you may cause a false alarm.
