Get In and Go
Get In and Go is designed to provide users with easy takeover when
entering their Push-to-Start (PTS) equipped vehicle, once it has been
remote started.
Typically, users would have to remote start their vehicle, then get inside and press
the vehicle start button to perform a takeover. There is therefore a physical action
required to drive away. With Get In and Go technology, you simply remote start the
vehicle, unlock the doors, get in and go... Nothing to do but put the gear in drive and
enjoy your vehicle.
This unique feature monitors a variety of parameters such as the key fob, vehicle
speed sensor and door sensor, in order to perform takeover securily.
