Introduction

This is a state-of-the-art remote alarm/starter combo system.

Vehicle Presets

Heater & Heated Seats

When leaving the vehicle it is recommended to preset the accessory controls in preparation for the next remote start. Settings for the blower motor (fan) as well as heated seats (if equipped) should not be left on HIGH. It is recommended to leave the settings on LOW or MEDIUM instead.

Windshield Wipers, Radio & Headlights

Certain vehicles energize the radio and / or windshield wipers and / or headlight circuits while running under remote start. When leaving the vehicle you must ensure that the windshield wiper and headlight switches are

OFF. Leaving the headlight switch ON on certain types of vehicles could

cause them to remain

ON even after remote starter shut down, resulting in a dead battery.
