NTT!! This product is designed for fuel-injected, automatic transmission vehicles only.
Installing it in a standard transmission vehicle is dangerous and is contrary to its intended use.
■
Please read this entire installation guide before beginning the installation. The installation of this remote
start system requires interfacing with many of the vehicle’s systems. Many new vehicles use low-voltage or
multiplexed systems that can be damaged by low resistance testing devices, such as test lights and logic
probes (computer safe test lights). Test all circuits with a high quality digital multi-meter before making con-
nections.
■
Do not disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft-coded radio. If equipped with an air bag, avoid
disconnecting the battery if possible. Many airbag systems will display a diagnostic code through their
warning lights after they lose power. Disconnecting the battery requires this code to be erased, which can
require a trip to the dealer.
■
Check with the customer on status LED location.
■
Remove the domelight fuse. This prevents accidentally draining the battery.
■
Roll down a window to avoid being locked out of the car.
■
Test all functions. The “Using Your System” section of the Owner's Guide is very helpful when testing.
■
When testing, don’t forget that this system is equipped with Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry (NPC). NPC can
bypass trigger zones, making them appear to stop working. See the
Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry section.
■
Review and complete the
Safety Check section of this guide prior to the vehicle reassembly.
