Vehicle Presets
Heater and Heated Seat
When leaving the vehicle it is recommended to preset the accessory controls in preparation
for the next remote start. Settings for the blower motor (fan), front and rear, as well as
heated seats (if equipped) should not be left on
HIGH
. It is recommended to leave the settings
on
LOW
or

instead.
Windshield Wipers, Radio and Headlights
Certain vehicles require the radio and / or windshield wiper and / or headlight circuits to
become energized while running under remote start. When leaving the vehicle you must
ensure that the windshield wiper and headlight switches are off. Leaving the headlight switch
ON
on certain types of vehicles could cause them to remain on
even after the remote starter
shuts down, resulting in a dead battery.
