Vacation Mode

Vacation mode is a valuable feature designed to maintain normal
operating conditions when the vehicle is parked for extended
periods. Vacation mode will monitor and automatically start the
engine any time the system detects extremely low battery voltage
or temperatures (See Programming Section for available low
temperature settings).

To activate Vacation Mode:

Press and hold the 

buttons on your trans-

mitter for more than 3 seconds

The parking lights will flash 5 times and the Horn/Siren
will chirp once to confirm Vacation Mode is activated.

Your vehicles battery level and interior temperature will
be monitored and the engine will automatically start up
to 8 times.

Temperature: the system will check the interior temper-
ature and start if required every three hours 

Battery level: the system will start the engine immedi-
ately when the battery level drops below 11.5 volts.
