Warning! Safety First
Please read the safety warnings below before pro-
ceeding. Improper use of the product may be danger-
ous or illegal.
Installation
Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by
an authorized AstroStart dealer.
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 “Start Valet” procedure found under “Valet Modes” in
this guide. It is the user’s sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from
children all remote control remote controls to assure that the system does not unintentionally
remote start the vehicle. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE USER INSTALL A CARBON
MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN THE LIVING AREAS ADJACENT TO THE VEHICLE. ALL
DOORS LEADING FROM ADJACENT LIVING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY
ENCLOSED VEHICLE STORAGE AREA MUST BE CLOSED AT ALL TIMES. 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 AstroStart dealer.
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/emergency brake
properly functions. Failure to do so can result in personal injury or property damage. We
recommend the owner have the parking / emergency brake system inspected and adjusted
by a qualified automotive shop biannually.
