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. Therefore, never
operate the system in an area that does not have adequate ventilation.

The following precautions are the sole responsibility of the user; however, authorized Directed dealers should:

• Never use a test light or logic probe when installing this unit. Always use a multimeter.

• Never operate the system in an enclosed 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 controls to assure that the system does not unintentionally remote start the vehicle.

• 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 REMAIN CLOSED AT ALL TIMES.

Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of operation may result in property damage, personal injury, or
death. Except when performing the Safety Check outlined in this installation guide, (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 is responsible for having 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 this product
installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately and consult with the user to fix the problem
immediately.

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. IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE
START MODULE. DIRECTED WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.

Remote starters for manual transmission pose significant risks if not properly installed and operated. When testing to ensure the
installation is working properly, only remote start the vehicle in neutral gear, on a flat surface and with a functional, fully engaged
parking brake. Do not allow anyone to stand in front of or behind the vehicle.

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! RXT installations are ONLY compatible with vehicles equipped with factory-installed remote starter.
 Range Extender Ready (RXT) is used to dramatically increase the factory remote start activation range compared to the

factory transmitter. Refer to the "Quick reference guide" for more information.

 SmartStart Compatible: SmartStart is equipped with D2D, which means it can be connected to an interface module

and used in Range Extender Ready (RXT) mode without the use of a remote starter. See "Module programming" for more
information.

 The optional Plug & Play THCHD3 T-Harness is sold separately.
 The OBDII Diagnostic Connector features will remain the same even when the T-Harness is installed.
 Unless specified otherwise, all connectors are displayed from the wire side, with the exception of the OBDII diagnostic

connector.

 Refer to "Vehicle connections" following the wiring diagram.

Connecting the module

Important!

Make all the required connections to the vehicle, as described in this guide, and double check to ensure everything is correct prior
to moving onto programming.

Note: Before connecting either the XL202 or SmartStart module to DB3, it is important to ensure that the proper feature and
function programming is selected using DirectLink (version 4.5 or higher). Visit www.directechs.com to download the latest version
of the application.

Warning! To take advantage of advanced features, you must use DirectLink 4.5 (and higher) or the Directechs Mobile application.

Flashing a module using your computer:

1. Connect the interface module to your computer using the XKLoader2.

2. Go to www.directechs.com using Internet Explorer, and select the Flash Module button.

3. Follow the instructions to select your vehicle, installation type, and configure your options.

4. Once you have configured the firmware options, click on the FLASH button.

Flashing a module using your smartphone or tablet:

1. Connect the interface module to your XKLoader3.

2. Launch the Directechs Mobile app on your smartphone or tablet.

3. Select FLASH YOUR MODULE and follow the on screen instructions.

When the flashing operation is successful, you can proceed with the instructions below.

SmartStart installation

The DB3 module must be disconnected from any power source before SmartStart can
be connected to it. Failing to do so could damage DB3.

1. To ensure that the D2D communication between SmartStart and DB3 works properly,

connect the Gray wire to a ground source (Rev B SmartStart), and cut the Brown or
Blue loop (Rev A SmartStart).

2. Do NOT connect the 2-pin harness (on SmartStart). Power and ground will be

provided by the DB3 D2D connector.

3. Connect SmartStart to DB3 using the D2D port.

The OEM alarm will not be controlled by the interface upon remote start. No
disarm or arm command will be executed at the beginning or end of the
sequence; it must be controlled by the Remote Starter.

Smart OEM Alarm Control will behave like a standard Safelock feature on a
remote starter. It will unlock at the beginning of the sequence, and relock after
start and shutdown.

Smart OEM Alarm Control will synchronize with the OEM alarm so that it will
disarm and rearm the vehicle in the remote start sequence, only when required.
Smart OEM Alarm Control will monitor the alarm and door lock status to detect
if the disarm or rearm is required. If the vehicle is unlocked or is not equipped
with factory alarm, the disarm/rearm will not be executed.

Range Extender Ready (RXT) is used to amplify the distance covered
by factory remote starters, which are built into the BCM of the vehicle.
The interface connects to the vehicle and uses the same codes as the
factory remote to remote start the vehicle. The runtime and features are
identical to the ones for the OEM remote starter. Some of the
advantages of RXT are greater distance coverage and 2-way
compatibility.
