Flashing LED
ON
:
the L.E.D. will flash at all times (either under active arming or under passive
arming) to indicate that the Starter Kill is active.
•
Active Arming:
the LED will flash normally.
•
Passive Arming:
the LED will flash at a faster rate during the countdown preceding the
activation of the Starter Kill. Once the Remote Car Starter
is armed, the LED will flash at a slower rate.

the LED will remain lit without flashing.
•
Flashing LED
OFF
:
the LED will not flash even when the
Remote
Car Starter is armed (either
under active or passive arming). Nevertheless, if the Remote Car Starter enters Valet Mode, the
LED will still remain lit without flashing as long as the ignition is off.
Extended Run Time
While the vehicle is running after a remote start,
pressing and holding the
START/STOP
button for
more than 3 seconds
will reset the Run Time counter to zero and restart the Run Time cycle from
the beginning –The parking Lights will flash 3 times as a confirmation of having extended the run
time.
The Extended run time procedure can only be carried out once per remote start.
If
Mode 3, Function 4, Option 1 or 3 has been selected, the Horn will honk once to confirm having
extended the run time.
To stop the vehicle, at any moment, simply press the
START/STOP
button.
Example:
if your Remote
Car Starter is programmed for a Run Time of 4 minutes and your vehicle has been running for
3 minutes already, pressing the
START/STOP
button will reset the counter to zero and allow the
engine to run for another cycle (in this case, 4 minutes).
Safe Start
If this feature is enabled, the user must press the
START/STOP
button 2 times within 3 seconds to
remote-start the vehicle. This will eliminate accidental remote starts, e.g. when children are playing
with the transmitter.
If
Swap Start Mode
is selected, to remote-start your vehicle press
LOCK
and
UNLOCK
simultaneously. The
AUX 2
output can be activated by pressing the
START/STOP
button.
Ignition-controlled Door Locks
This is an added security feature. If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Ignition-
Controlled Door Locks option, the doors will automatically be locked as soon as the ignition key is
turned to the
IGNITION ON (RUN)
position while the brakes are pressed. When the key is turned to the
OFF
position, the doors will automatically be unlocked.
Ignition Re-lock
On Remote Car Starters of this series, when Ignition-controlled Door Locks are enabled and the
ignition key is in the
IGNITION ON (RUN)
position, should any door be unlocked and opened, all doors
will be relocked next time the brake pedal is pressed.
Secure Lock
Before it can remote-start your vehicle, the Remote Car Starter must first disarm the factory
security system. The Secure Lock feature may be required on certain vehicle models with factory
security systems that automatically unlock the doors when the security system is disarmed.
To keep your vehicle protected when the factory security system is disarmed for a remote start,
Secure Lock will relock your doors as soon as the vehicle has started. Once the engine run cycle
ends, Secure Lock will rearm your factory security system.
Turbo Mode
When left in Turbo Mode, the Remote Car Starter will keep the engine running for 60 seconds
before shutting it down. This is to allow a turbocharger to idle down after the user leaves the
vehicle. See
Turbo Mode
section earlier in this Guide.
