Government regulations

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesirable operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television, which can be determined by turning the equipment Off and ON, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.

Remote Controls

To satisfy FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, this device should be used

in hand-held, hand operated conﬁgurations only. The device and its antenna must maintain a separation distance of 20 cm or more from the person’s body,

except for the hand and wrists, to satisfy RF exposure compliance. This device

is designed to be used in a person’s hands and its operating conﬁgurations do

not support normal transmissions while it is carried in pockets or holsters next to

a person’s body.

Control Center

To satisfy FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the device and its antenna

must maintain a separation distance of 20 cm or more from the person’s body,

except for the hand and wrists, to satisfy RF exposure compliance.

This device complies with the Industry Canada Radio Standards Speciﬁcation RSS 210. Its use is authorized only on a no-interference, no-protection basis; in other words, this device must not be used if it is determined that it causes harmful interference to services authorized by IC. In addition, the user of this device must accept any radio interference that may be received, even if this interference could affect the operation of the device.

Warning:

Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this device.

Warning! Safety ﬁrst

The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:

Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be

performed by an authorized Directed dealer.

When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal from the remote control transmitter. Therefore, never operate the system in an enclosed area or partially enclosed area without ventilation (such as a garage). When parking in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced, the remote start system must be disabled using the installed toggle switch. It is the user’s sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from children all remote control transmitters to assure that the system does not unintentionally remote start the vehicle. THE USER MUST INSTALL A

CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA ADJACENT TO THE VEHICLE. ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJACENT LIVING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE STORAGE

AREA MUST AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED. These precautions are the sole responsibility of the user.

Remote starters on manual transmission vehicles operate differently than those with automatic transmission because you must leave your car in neutral. You

must read this Owner’s Guide to familiarize yourself with the proper procedures

regarding manual transmission remote starters. If you have any questions, ask your installer or contact Directed at 1-800-753-0600.

Before remote starting a manual transmission vehicle, be sure to:

Leave the vehicle in neutral and be sure no one is standing in front or •

behind the vehicle.

Only remote start on a ﬂat surface•

Have the parking brake fully engaged•

WARNING!

It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure the parking/emergen-

cy brake properly functions. Failure to do so can result in personal injury or prop-

erty damage. We recommend the owner have the parking / emergency brake

system inspected and adjusted by a qualiﬁed automotive shop bi-annually. Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of operation may result in property damage, personal injury, or death. (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the keys in the ignition. The user must also have the neutral safety feature of the vehicle periodically checked, wherein the vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear. This testing should be performed by an authorized Directed dealer in accordance with the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately and

consult with the authorized Directed dealer to x the problem.

After the remote start module has been installed, contact your authorized dealer to have him or her test the remote start module by performing the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts when performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit test, the remote start unit has not been properly installed. The remote start module must be removed or the installer must properly reinstall the remote start system so that the vehicle does not start in gear. All installations must be performed by an authorized Directed dealer.

OPERATION OF THE REMOTE START MODULE IF THE VEHICLE STARTS IN GEAR IS CONTRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF OPERATION. OPERATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY

CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND SEEK THE ASSISTANCE OF AN AUTHORIZED Directed DEALER TO REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE START MODULE. DIRECTED WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.

This product is designed for fuel injected vehicles only. Use of this product in a standard transmission vehicle must be in strict accordance with this guide.

This product should not be installed in any convertible vehicles, soft or hard top with a manual transmission. Installation in such vehicles may pose certain risk.

Important information

Congratulations on the purchase of your state-of-the-art remote start system. Due

to the complexity of this system, it must be installed by an authorized dealer only.

Installation of this product by anyone other than an authorized dealer voids the warranty. All dealers are provided with a preprinted dealer certiﬁcate to verify authorization.

By carefully reading this Owner’s Guide prior to using your system, you will maximize the use of this system and its features. You can print ad-

ditional or replacement copies of this manual by accessing our web site at www.directed.com.

➤ Your warranty

Your warranty registration must be completely ﬁlled out and returned within 10 days of purchase. Your product warranty will not be validated if your warranty registration is not returned. Make sure you receive the warranty registration from your dealer. It is also necessary to keep your proof of purchase, which reﬂects that the product was installed by an authorized dealer.

➤ Replacement remote controls

Your system comes with one Responder LC remote control (P/N 7752X) and one companion remote control (P/N 7652X). If additional remotes are desired,

please see your authorized dealer or visit www.directedstore.com to order.

➤ Out of range notiﬁcation

If a command is issued from the remote, but the remote is beyond the range of the vehicle to receive the command, the remote will respond with an out-of range notiﬁcation. If this occurs, the out-of-range icon displays on the LCD and the remote emits an error tones.

Since conditions will vary in different areas (ie: Weather, RF interference, etc) range may be affected and require you to be closer to the vehicle for successful transmission.

➤ System maintenance

The system requires no speciﬁc maintenance. The 2-way remote contains a non-replaceable rechargeable battery. When the battery begins to weaken, the operating range will be reduced. Your 1-way remote is powered by small coin cell lightweight 3-volt lithium bat-

tery that will last approximately one year under normal use. The 1-way remote

uses one CR2032 cell battery.

➤ Charging the Battery

Plug in the USB charger (alternately a standard mini USB cable connected •

to any standard USB port on any laptop or desktop computer can also be

used (cable not included)).

The LCD displays “CHARGE” while the battery level bars within the battery •

icon ﬂash.

When charging is complete the LCD then displays “FULL”. •

Note:

If the battery has been severely discharged all remote functions are dis-

abled for a short charge period. The battery status outline ashes and CHARGE

is displayed on the LCD. Once the battery has accumulated enough charge for functionality, the LCD icons initialize with a beep sound, the battery status

outline stops ﬂashing and the remote becomes operational while still displaying

Sirius-Ready, SAT Radio Ready or select OEM headunits with optional Honda Bus Compatible Translator

CHARGE.

Warning! The temperature range over which

the battery can be charged is 0ºC TO 45ºC (32ºF TO 113ºF). Charging the battery at temperatures outside this range may cause severe damage to the battery or reduce bat-

tery life expectancy.

➤ Low battery indicator

When the batteries are low on the 2-way remote it will emit two groups of beeps, the battery icon ﬂashes and low battery is indicated on the screen. The remote then emits an additional honk, (if this option is installed), when unlocking to let you know its time to change the battery. When the battery is low on the 1-way remote, the remote responds the same way audibly.

Note:

The optional horn honks must be installed for the remote to emit additional

honks during unlocking. Ask your authorized dealer if you have any questions.

➤ Battery Replacement

Slide the door up to expose the battery beneath the holder. Remove the expired

battery. Place the new battery into the remote control. When power is returned the remote control is ready for use.

Turbo Timer mode

Turbo timer mode keeps the engine running after arriving at your destination for a programmable period of 1, 3, 5 or 10 minutes. This allows the system’s timer to conveniently cool down the turbo after you have left the vehicle.

The system monitors the engine speed and will automatically shut the engine off if the RPMs rise above or fall below the programmed levels. This feature prevents damage to the motor due to fuel delivery system failures or other problems that may cause the engine to race

button.

Details:

Smart start uses temperature and voltage settings to determine when the vehicle should start and run. If any changes to temperature or voltage are made using the Bitwriter programming tool Smart start activation is affected.

The Smart Start function works similar to the Timer mode. The system must be

in the locked mode. Using the system default settings, it has a maximum of 6 starting cycles ,and checks the voltage/cabin temperature every 3 hours to see

if the thresholds have been met.

If thresholds have been met then the remote start will start the vehicle and run for the pre programmed time. It counts the ﬁrst start as one successful start, leaving 5 start cycles.

If the threshold has not been met then the system will not start the vehicle, and 6 start cycles are left. The unit continues to check threshold levels every 3 hours.

➤ Pair remote mode

It is recommended that this feature for programming the remote to the system is performed by your installer.

➤ Demo modes

One-time with sound• The LCD icons display one at a time with icon name displayed in the text

ﬁeld, while the remote is playing tones.

One-time without sound• The LCD icons display one at a time until they are all turned on. The remote does not play any tones.

Note: If the charger is plugged into the remote and demo mode is activated, the remote plays the demo mode continuously. The continuous loop

demo mode is exited when the charger is disconnected.

Safety features

This system has several important safety features to ensure proper operation of the motor and prevent accidental damage to the engine or its components.

➤ Optional starter anti-grind circuitry

Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind circuitry prevents the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned to the start position. This prevents damage to the starter motor if the key is turned to the start position during remote start operation.

Note: Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote start system is operating

the motor and the optional Failsafe® Starter Kill relay is installed.

➤ Disabling the remote start system

This feature allows the remote start unit to be temporarily disabled to prevent the vehicle from being remote started accidentally. This feature is useful when the vehicle is being serviced or stored in an enclosed area.

To disable the remote start, move the shutdown toggle switch to the Off position. Check with your installer for the location of the shutdown switch. Location of Shutdown Switch____________________________

Diagnostics

The microprocessor at the heart of the system is constantly monitoring the switches that are connected to the main unit.

➤ Locking

If the system is locked at the same time that the door is active, you will hear one horn honk to indicate locking and a second horn honk to indicate Bypass Notiﬁcation.

For example, if your vehicle has an interior light exit delay and you lock the

system before the interior light turns Off, you may hear a second Bypass Notiﬁcation honk.

Note: Bypass Notiﬁcation does not occur when the system is in Silent Mode or if the notiﬁcation honks have been programmed Off by the installer.

➤ Unlocking

Extra honks when unlocking the system is a notication that the batteries in the

remote are low and need to be replaced.

Important:

The optional horn honk feature must be installed.

➤ Remote start

This system can provide you with information to indicate what the problem is when using the remote start. When the remote start is activated and fails to engage, count the parking light ﬂashes to determine the problem. The parking lights will ﬂash between 5 - 8 times to indicate what caused the no start situation.

• 5 ashes: brake wire is active

• 6 ashes: hood pin is active

• 7 ashes: manual transmission mode is enabled and not initialized

• 8 ashes: neutral safety wire has no ground or the remote start

defeat toggle switch is off.

Keep a record of the number of ﬂashes, to assist your installer when taking the vehicle in for service.

Owner recognition

Owner recognition lets up to four users of the system have unique settings that meet their speciﬁc needs. It is almost like having four separate systems in your vehicle, one for each user. This feature is only available to authorized dealers using the Bitwriter or Bitwriter 2 program tool.

Rapid resume logic

This Directed system will store its current state to non-volatile memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will recall the stored state from memory.

For example, if the unit is in Valet Mode and the battery is disconnected for any

reason, such as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will

still be in Valet Mode. This applies to all states of the system including lock or

unlock.

Power saver mode

➤ System

Your system automatically enters Power Saver Mode while locked or in Valet

Mode, after a period of time in which no operation has been performed. This lowers the current draw on the vehicle’s battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions:

Power Saver when the system is locked: After the system has been Locked for 24 hours the LED will ﬂash at half its normal rate, decreasing the system’s current draw.

Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet Mode the Status LED

on the Responder LC control center illuminates steadily. If the vehicle is not used

(ignition is not turned on) for a one-hour period while the system is in Valet Mode, the status LED will shut Off. If the system remains in Valet Mode, the LED will come back on the next time the ignition is turned on and then back Off.

➤ 2-way remote

Your Responder LC 2way remote control has a feature called remote power save mode. When programmed On under remote options, the remote conserves power by disabling the paging function if unused for more than 72 hours. Pressing any button on the remote restores the paging function.

The default setting is On. See Remote control programming section of this guide or ask your dealer for details on how to program.

Programming options

Your system has many custom programmable options. Some may require installation labor. Ask your authorized dealer for details.

The following is a list of the programmable options, with the factory settings in Bold.

Active• locking (remote only) passive locking will lock the doors 30 sec- onds after the ignition is turned Off and the last door has been closed; or Auto Re-lock automatically locks 60 seconds after unlocking (if no door is opened).

Locking/Unlocking with horn honks • On or Off.

Ignition controlled door lock feature On or • Off: When this feature is pro- grammed on, the doors will lock three seconds after the ignition is turned on, and unlock when the ignition is turned Off.

If your installer is programming the system, ignition lock and unlock are independent features that can be programmed separately.

Panic mode enabled• /disabled when the ignition is turned on or com- pletely turned Off. (Some states have laws against horns continually honking in moving cars.)

Comfort closure• is a programming option which closes the vehicle’s win-

dows after remote locking.

Note: Comfort closure can only be used on cars that have the capability of closing the windows (and on some cars the sunroof as well) with the key cylinder in the door.

Convenience expansions

Listed below are some of the expansion options available. Please consult your dealer for a complete explanation of all the options available to you.

Factory Alarm Trigger Notiﬁcation:

This system has an input that can be connected to the horn circuit in the vehicle. If the vehicle has a factory alarm and is controlled by this system (for lock/unlock), the remote reports when the factory alarm has been triggered. When the factory alarm is triggered the remote screen displays the alarm icon and "alarm

door open" is displayed in the text area.

Note: The remote must be in range and the system locked to receive the report. The system does not report that the factory alarm has been triggered when unlocking with the remote.

Power Trunk Release: The accessory output of the system can operate a factory power release for the vehicle’s trunk or hatch. Sometimes an optional relay is

required. If the factory release is not power-activated, Directed®’s 522T trunk

release solenoid can often be added.

Power Window Control: Automatic power window control is provided with the 529T and 530T systems. These can operate power windows, and can roll them up automatically when the system is Locked, roll them down, or both up and down.

Glossary of terms

2-Way Remote: A hand-held, remote control which operates the various func-

tions of your system and receives feedback and pages from the system.

Control Center: The control center contains the system’s radio-frequency antenna,

the valet and override switch, and the Status LED. For maximum remote-control

range, the Control Center is usually located at the top of the windshield, centered near the rear-view mirror.

Control Module: The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden underneath the dash

area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the system's functions.

Failsafe® Starter Kill (if equipped): An automatic switch controlled by the system which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever the system is locked. The vehicle is never prevented from cranking when the system is unlocked in

Valet® Mode, or should the starter kill switch fail. Your system is ready for this

feature, however installation of this feature may require additional labor.

Input: Any physical connection to the system. An input can be provided by exist- ing systems in the vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights.

In-vehicle status LED: A light used to indicate the status of your system. It is located on your systems control center.

Valet Button: A small push button switch located on your systems control center. It is used to override the starter interrupt when a 2-way remote is lost or damaged,

or to enter or exit Valet Mode.
