AviStart 6000 Owner's Manual

AviStart 6000

Congratulations! You have just purchased the AviStart 6000, a remote engine starter and security system manufactured by Avital Technologies, Inc. You are about to experience the convenience and luxury of being able to start your vehicle engine from the comfort of your home, office, department store or other remote location.

To benefit fully from the capabilities of your AviStart system, we encourage you to read the Owner’s Manual thoroughly before using the system. If you have any problems or questions regarding your AviStart system, consult the dealer from whom you purchased this product. To locate an authorized Avital dealer, contact Avital Technologies directly at 1-800-253-0334 (toll-free within the U.S.) or 1-847-215-2233.

Lifetime Warranty

Avital guarantees the operation of your AviStart control unit and remote controls for as long as you own your car. (Please refer to your Lifetime Limited Warranty Card for complete information.) Make sure that you receive your warranty card from your dealer, complete the required information and mail the registration portion to Avital Technologies. You should retain the top portion of the warranty card for your records.

Remote Controls

Included with your AviStart system are two AviGlo™ 4-button/9-channel remote controls. Once exposed to light, the AviGlo remote control buttons will glow, making the buttons visible in the dark.

The remote control (remote) is a miniature transmitter powered by a small +12 volt battery. The RangeMaster™ super-heterodyne receiver (installed in your vehicle) allows your remote to command your system from up to ¼ mile away. Obstructions, electrical or radio interference, weather conditions, window tint or a weak battery can reduce this range. Your remote is the key to your AviStart system and can be used to arm and disarm your alarm, lock and unlock your doors, "pop" your trunk, start your engine and control optional accessories.

The AviStart system can accept up to four Avital remote controls. Additional remote controls and remote control batteries can be purchased from any authorized Avital dealer, or by calling Avital Technologies toll-free at 1-800-253-0334 (within the U.S.) or 1-847-215-2233.

Stealth Coding  Technology

Stealth Coding technology offers the most advanced protection available against "code-grabbing" devices which thieves may use to record the digital code transmitted by your remote control. When you leave the area, thieves can then play back the code to unlock the doors and deactivate your system. Avital's remote controls with Stealth Coding randomly change the code every time you use them, and your system will not respond if any code is retransmitted. This technology makes code-grabbing devices useless.

Electronic Scan Prevention (ESP)

Your AviStart system also includes ESP, which blocks electronic scanner codes preventing unauthorized operation of your system.

Instant Remote Control Code Deletion

In the event of a lost or stolen remote control, all remote controls can be erased from the system memory preventing unauthorized system operation. (See the "Programming Table for Remote Controls" on page 15).

One-Step Remote Control Code Learning

The AviStart system allows you to add new remote controls in one step. (See the "Programming Table for Remote Controls" on page 15).

Valet Switch

The valet switch is a small hidden toggle switch which allows you to control all of the system programmable features. (See "User-Programmable Features" on page 14). This switch can only be controlled with the use of your ignition key.

NOTE: Be sure to have your dealer show you where the valet switch is located.

Operating Your AviStart

To Arm The System

The alarm can be programmed for active or passive arming. Active arming means the alarm can only be armed by the remote control. Passive arming means if you forget to arm the alarm with the remote control, the alarm will automatically arm itself 30 seconds after the doors have been closed and the interior lights have turned off. )See the "Programming Table for System Features" on page 14.)

Active Arming

Press the remote ARM/DISARM button for 1-2 seconds. The siren will chirp twice, the parking lights will flash twice, the doors will lock,* the LED will flash slowly and the starter will be disabled.

*If your system was installed with the door lock/unlock feature,

Passive Arming

Turn the ignition key "OFF," exit the vehicle and close the doors. When the interior lights turn off, the LED will begin flashing rapidly to indicate the alarm is passive arming. After 30 seconds, the siren will chirp twice, the parking lights will flash twice, the LED will flash slowly and the starter will be disabled (at any time during passive arming, the alarm can be actively armed).

To Disarm the System

Press the remote ARM/DISARM button for 1-2 seconds. The siren will chirp once, the parking lights will flash once, the doors will unlock, the interior lights will turn on, the LED will turn off and the starter will be enabled.

All other door lock/unlock related features will apply.

Remote-Controlled Silent Arm/Disarm

Press the remote SILENT button for 1-2 seconds to arm or disarm your system without the usual siren chirps.

Silent Arm Indications

The parking lights will flash twice, the doors will lock, the starter will be disabled and the LED will flash slowly.
