May require additional parts and installation

Note

Sensor triggers: The shock sensor can distinguish minor impacts from

major impacts to the vehicle exterior. Minor impacts causes the system to emit a Warn-away output. Major impacts caused for example by a forcible entry attempt, results in a Full Trigger output.

Point of entry triggers: Opening the hood or trunk causes a Full Trigger output, while opening a Door or turning on the Ignition causes the the siren to chirp three seconds before beginning the Full Trigger output. This three second delay allows time to disarm and silence the siren in case of accidental trigger.

Sensor Silent Arm protection

Sensor Warn-away and Sensor Full Trigger activations are defeated. Point of entry triggers will activate the Full Trigger output.

Full Silent Arm Protection

Sensor Warn-away, Sensor Full Trigger and Point of Entry activations are defeated. Only the Ignition input will activate the Full Trigger output.

Note

re-arming the system should be placed into Valet Mode until a remote is available .

Trigger Zone Fault Report

When armed by remote command the system runs a status check of the alarm trigger zones. Faulty zones (usually caused by dome light delay or open trunk) are bypassed and reported via the control center LED, while all other trigger zones remain active and are monitored to protect the vehicle. Should a faulty zone self correct (dome light turns off) it becomes active and is then monitored normally. The siren chirps once again a few seconds following the arming chirps as an audible alert, the control center LED ﬂashes in groups to indicate the zone number.

Page 22

Alarm Report

If the alarm was triggered while armed, it will be reported when the alarm is disarmed via siren chirps, parking light and control center LED ﬂashes. The siren chirps four times (or ﬁve times if NPC On*), the parking lights ﬂash three times, and the control center LED ﬂashes in groups to indicate the last two zones that were triggered (see Table of Zones). The report output will repeat for each disarm operation until the ignition is turned on.

* See Nuisance Prevention (NPC) for more details.

Table of Zones

6 Hood

Nuisance Prevention (NPC)

NPC monitors all alarm zones and, if any are triggered excessively, bypasses them until corrected. If a point of entry (trunk, hood, door) is left open following a forced entry, it is bypassed. It becomes active again only after being closed.

Bypassed sensors automatically reset after one hour and after the vehicle is driven. Disarming then re-arming the alarm does not reset bypassed sensors.

The Advanced start features; Timer Start and Smart Start will automatically start the engine to maintain battery charge or combat extreme cold when parked for an extended period of time.

Page 24

Precautions for the Advanced Start features:

s Park the vehicle in a well ventilated area away from windows

and doors that lead into inhabited spaces. s Arm and Lock the vehicle, the engine will not start unless the

doors are locked. s Only one Advanced start feature can be enabled at any given

time. s For manual transmission vehicles MTS mode must be enabled

before Timer Start or Smart Start can be activated. s Timer Start or Smart Start mode automatically exits when the ve-

hicle is disarmed.

Timer Start operation

Activation begins a countdown timer as set by the installer (de-

fault 3 hours). When the timer expires the engine starts. When

the Remote start runtime expires the engine shuts off, and the

countdown timer restarts. This will repeat as many times as set

by the installer (default 6 starts). Timer Start is exited after the

ﬁnal start.

Smart Start operation

Smart Start uses the settings for Timer Start in addition to tempera-

ture and battery level to automatically start the engine. Activation

begins the countdown timer. When the timer expires the vehicle

interior temperature and battery level is checked and, if the Tem-

perature is above 100°F, below 0°F, or the battery level is be-

low 10.5V, the engine will start. When the Remote start runtime

expires the engine shuts off, and the countdown timer restarts.

Remote and System Operations

Passive Arming*

Park and exit the vehicle, after the doors are closed the Passive arming countdown begins. The led ﬂashes quickly and upon reaching 20 seconds the siren then chirps once. At 30 seconds the system arms itself.

Anytime before the system arms you can re-enter the vehicle or open the trunk to load or unload items and, after closing passive arming resumes.

To stay secure in case of accidental disarming the system, if a door is not opened within 30 seconds the system re-arms itself and locks the doors.

Auto Re-arming*

Auto re-arm ensures the vehicle stays protected if it is not entered after disarming by remote control. After disarming by remote, the alarm automatically re-arms itself (and locks the doors if programmed on) in 30 seconds. Open any point of entry to stop the re-arm until the next disarm by remote.

Onetime Bypass*

Turn the ignition On for one to three seconds and then Off. The siren chirps once to conﬁrm one-time bypass is enabled. One-time bypass can be used to temporarily bypass the Passive arming operation for one cycle. It also bypasses the comfort closure and auxiliary channel outputs if programmed to activate when arming. After the next disarm all operations return to normal.

* These features must be turned on by an authorized Directed dealer.

Page 29

Valet Mode

Valet mode can be entered and exited by performing the Remote Valet command or manually using the vehicle key and the control button. When entered, the alarm functions are defeated while the convenience features still operate normally.

Use the following steps to manually enter and exit Valet Mode:

1. Turn the ignition switch On and then Off

2. Immediately press and release the control button once

3. The control center LED turns On when entering and Off when exiting.

Power Save

To reduce power consumption the control center status LED modiﬁes its output if the vehicle is parked for an extended period. If Armed the ﬂashing is reduced after 24 hours. When Valet mode is On the LED turns off after 1 hour and resets each time the ignition is turned off.

Rapid Resume

If power is ever disconnected by a mechanic or thief, the system will resume the state it was in at the time of disconnection, when power is reconnected.

When disarming the system using a remote with a low battery the siren will emit one additional chirp as an alert. If conﬁrmation chirps are programmed off, the system will still emit one chirp as an alert when disarming.

Battery Replacement

1. If present, remove the small screw on the back of the remote.

2. Use a small ﬂat blade screwdriver and insert it into the slot located along the bottom of the remote, near the key ring. Carefully pry open the case.

3. Gently slide out the used battery to remove it from the holding clip. Orient the new battery for the correct polarity and insert into holding clip.

4. Reposition case parts, and snap together by pressing ﬁrmly and evenly on the front and back. Reinstall screw (if applicable).

Battery Disposal

Directed cares about the environment. If you need to dispose of the battery, please do so in accordance with your municipal requirements for battery disposal.

Please read the safety warnings below before proceeding. Improper use of the product may be dangerous or illegal.

Installation

Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized Directed dealer. If you have any questions, ask your retailer or contact Directed directly at 1-800-753-0600.

Remote Start Capable

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 menu wheel. 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.

Manual Transmission Vehicles

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 authorized Directed dealer or contact Directed at 1-800-753-0600.
