After the remote start module has been installed, test the remote start module in accor-
dance with the Safety Check outlined in this installation guide. If the vehicle starts when performing
the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit test, the remote start unit has not been properly installed. The
remote start module must be removed or properly reinstalled so that the vehicle does not start in
gear. All installations must be performed by an authorized Directed Electronics dealer. OPERATION
OF THE REMOTE START MODULE IF THE VEHICLE STARTS IN GEAR IS CONTRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE
OF OPERATION. OPERATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND REPAIR OR
DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE START MODULE. DIRECTED ELECTRONICS, INC. WILL NOT BE HELD
RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.
installation points to remember
IMPORTANT!
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.
before beginning the installation
■
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
connections.
■
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.
