system maintenance
This system needs no specific maintenance beyond remote control battery replacement. The remote is powered by a 1.5V AAA battery.
The Battery Level indicator has four level indicators that serve as a visual indication of battery charge. When the battery reaches a low charge level that requires replacement, the remote control will generate a single notification chirp, and the Battery Level indicator will flash continuously.

The remote start system operates at 434 MHz and incorporates Directed’s proprietary XHF2 out-board ResponderTechnology remote control. The high frequency combined with Binary Data communication achieves superior range with two-way communication.
system signal paging features
A page is the signal the control module sends to the remote control as confirmation of receipt of a command or alarm system status.
When the remote control receives a page it will generate a page notification to the user (notifications are audible beeps or remote vibration) and the LCD Icons will display the current system status.
Command Page
When a command (arm/disarm, remote start, or auxiliary channel) from the remote control is sent and received, the system will send a command page back to confirm receipt.
note: When the system is in Valet mode, the remote control will show the lock (5) and unlock (6) icons, but will not generate a command page.
