Idle

 

Mode

 

Convenience feature: Idle Mode allows you to keep the engine running and the doors 
locked while you stop, for example, at a convenience store or for a short delivery. (remove 
this part for IG) 

This feature allows you to let the remote starter take over control of the vehicle (i.e. no Key in the 
Ignition Switch) while the engine is running. 
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, proceed as follows to set the system to Idle Mode: 

1.

 

With the engine running, make sure to release the brake pedal and press the 

,   or 

 button on the transmitter until the parking lights come ON

2.

 

Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch. 
The engine will continue running. 

3.

 

Exit the vehicle and close all doors, hood and trunk. 

4.

 

Press the 

 button to lock the doors, to arm the starter kill and to arm the alarm. 

If your vehicle has a manual transmission, Idle Mode can be activated through the same routine as 
that used for Ready Mode  (page-10); at the last step, the 

 button is pressed instead of the 

other buttons. This will lock the doors, arm the system and leave the engine running. 

Note 1: The engine will continue running until the user re-enters the vehicle or until the expiration 
of the engine run time. 
Note 2: If the pre-programmed run-time expires or if the user shuts down the engine by remote 
control, the vehicle will enter Ready Mode. 

Caution!! Do not leave children or pets unattended in a vehicle standing in Idle Mode.

When the vehicle is in Combo Valet and Valet Start, the remote starter is disabled. If the vehicle
