User guide P.3

What is EncryptR™ Technology?

EncryptR™ employs proprietary encryption software that sends unique codes from the
remote starter to the ADS-TB or ADS-AL-CA bypass module that cannot be replicated or
reversed with hi-tech equipment.

The EncryptR™ communication exchan ged between the remote s tarter and the ADS byp ass
module is best described as a “sec ret handshake” tha t is never the same and c hanges every
time it is used.

Since the command / communication is never exchanged in the same way twice, it is
impossible even for expert thieves to duplicate and it ensures the best possible s ecurity for
the remote starter system.

Added Security

Every installation of a Polarstart remote starter used in conjunction with an ADS-TB or an
ADS-AL-CA with the EncryptR™ Technology comes with a Limited Anti-Theft Warranty
covering up to $2,000 in the event of theft. In order to qualify, upon completion of the
installation, your installer should go on-li ne to www.encryptr.com

and fill out the Limited anti­theft warranty form. A copy should be printed and given to you for your records. Within ten
(10) working days a pair of holographic stick ers will be mailed to you. Upon receiving them,
you must ensure to affix them to both front-side windows of your vehicle.

TroubleshootingPoorTransmittingRange

Many factors may affect the operating range of the transmitter. Some of these are:

• The condition of the battery in the transmitter.

• The operating environment (for example: downt own radio-frequency noise, airports, cellular

phone towers…)

• Metal: any type of metal will affect operating range. This includes the metal in the car.

• The shape of the vehicle can affect rang e as well; vans in general have an especially po or

range.

• The shape of the roof in A-pillars brings about consid erable r adio-freque ncy deflec tion (in this
case the signal from the remote control). As a result, the direction in which the vehicle is
facing in relation to the remote control can affect th e range. Straight on – standing in front of
the vehicle – generally gives y ou the greatest range; the second bes t performance is from the
back. Using the remote control from either side of the vehicle will usually give the lowest
range.

• The range will be significantly lower in a crowded parking lot than in open space.

• Always hold the transmitter high, approximately at shoulder height. Holding the transmitter

against your chin will also increase your range: your head acts as an antenna.

• The operating range will be somewhat lower on vehicles equipped with an aftermarket or
factory alarm.
