Depending on the usage, the transmitter’s battery can last between 3 to 6 months. When
the battery is low, the transmitter will emit two “beeps” in a repetitive cycle. At that point
the batteries should be replaces. We recommend keeping a spare battery somewhere
handy such as inside the glove compartment.

Introduction
This System is a state-of-the-art remote car starter and alarm combo system. The system is
packed with advanced features such as priority access to the driver’s door and Car Finder
(commodity features), last armed state memory in case of power failure (which ensures that the
vehicle remains protected after a power failure recovery) and the Safe Start children safety feature.
Remote-Starting Your Vehicle
Remote-starting
Press the START/STOP button for approx. 1 second. The parking lights will come ON and the remote
control will play a melody to inform you that the System has received your signal. Approximately 5
seconds later, the engine will start. The parking lights will remain
run time of the engine.
If the vehicle does not start at the first attempt, the system will shut down, wait a few seconds and
try to start the engine again. There will be 3 start attempts before the system gives up.
Vehicle Presets
Heater & Heated Seat
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), front and rear, 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 require the radio and / or windshield wiper and / or headlight circuits to become
energized while running under remote start. When leaving the vehicle you must ensure that the
windshield wiper and headlight switches are
of vehicles could cause them to remain
OFF. Leaving the headlight switch ON on certain types
ON even after remote starter shut down, resulting in a dead
battery.
Driving Off
With the vehicle running under remote control, press the
UNLOCK button to disarm and unlock the
doors. Enter the vehicle and do the following:
Turn the ignition key to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position. (Do not turn the key to the CRANK position
while the engine is running. This would cause the starter motor to re-engage.)
Press the brake pedal to disengage the remote starter unit.
You are now ready to drive off.
Setting Your Vehicle into Ready Mode
This product is designed for vehicles with a manual transmission only. In order to start the vehicle
by remote, the unit must first be set to ready mode. If the unit is not set to ready mode, it cannot
remote-start the vehicle. Once the system is set to ready mode, the vehicle can be remote-started
and stopped. The system will exit ready mode if a door or the hood is opened, if the brake pedal is
pressed, if the parking brake is disengaged or if the ignition key is turned to the
position.

To disarm the alarm and Starter Kill (if installed) and unlock the doors (if installed):
1. Press and hold the UNLOCK button for approx. 1 sec.
You will hear two chirps if the Siren or Horn is so configured.
The icon will light up on the LCD display of the remote control. The parking lights will flash twice
and the L.E.D. will go out to confirm that the doors have been unlocked and that the Starter
Kill (if installed) and the alarm are disarmed.
In Passive Mode, the System will rearm automatically 30 seconds after unlocking unless the key is
meanwhile inserted in the ignition switch (see description of Passive Mode later in this Guide).

Starter Kill feature (if installed) and the alarm are armed.
Idle Mode
Convenience feature: Idle Mode allows you to keep the engine running and the doors
locked while you stop, for example, at a convenience store or for a short delivery.
This feature allows you to let the remote starter take over control of the vehicle (i.e. no Key in the
Ignition Switch) while the engine is running. For example, if you stop for a delivery or at a convenience store, lock your vehicle and leave it running for the length of a run cycle while you are away.
