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.

➤ 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

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

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