LOw BATTERy/LOw TEmP AuTOmATic STARTinG

Other Remote Start Features

  This feature will automatically start the engine if the vehicle battery drops below 11 volts or the 

interior temperature drops to 15 (or 32) degrees fahrenheit. You must activate these features each 

time you park your car to use them. They can be activated one of two ways:

•  Turn the ignition switch “on”, then “off” (engine not running), and within 7 seconds press the 

valet switch twice.  If there is a 2 second delay without additional valet button presses, the horn 

will honk 3 times activating low voltage start mode. 

•  To activate low temp starting, enter low voltage start mode as described above but, immediate

-

ly after the horn honks, press the valet switch 1 time (15 degrees) or 2 times (32 degrees) within 5 

seconds. The horn will honk to confirm your selection.

 

nOTE: when low temp start mode is activated, low voltage start is also activated. These 

features will operate once every two hours until the ignition key is turned “On”.

TuRBO TimER FEATuRE

PiT-STOP FEATuRE

  This feature allows you to leave your engine running for making quick errands. To use this fea-

ture, have the engine running normally from the ignition switch and your foot off the brake pedal.  

Press the Valet Switch twice; the parking lights will flash and the horn will chirp 5 times. Turn the 

key off and the engine will remain running for the programmed run time.

mAnuAL TRAnSmiSSiOn STARTinG

  Remote starting with a manual transmission requires a different installation method and 

installer feature #11 must be turned on. Also, a setup procedure that ensures the transmission 

was left in neutral must be performed each time you leave your vehicle and intend to use remote 

start later. Make sure the system is in an “UNLOCKED” state then perform these steps:

1) With the car running, hold the brake pedal, apply the parking brake, release the brake pedal.

2) Use the transmitter as if you were activating remote start (default: press START twice). The  

status light will start to flash slow.

3) Turn off the ignition key and exit the vehicle.

4) LOCK the vehicle with the remote. The engine will shut down (unless turbo timer is on) and the 

status light will flash every 2 seconds to indicate it is ready to be remote started.

nOTE: manual transmission setup will cancel if you enter the vehicle.

 

This is recommended for vehicles equipped with a turbocharger. It allows the engine to idle 

after driving to cool the turbo. When this Installer Programmable Feature (#10) is enabled, the 

system will automatically keep the engine running as follows:

•  With the engine running, hold the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.  

When the brake pedal is released, the system will keep the engine running for the programmed  

time (1, 2, or 3 minutes), and then automatically turn it off.  

 

 

•  The system may be locked while the engine is running.  Turbo Timer can be prevented from 

engaging, or “bypassed” if desired, by turning the engine off before engaging the parking brake.

Security System Features (OPTiOnAL)

LAST DOOR ARminG

  This system can be configured to arm automatically when all the vehicle’s doors are closed 

(see user feature #9). When enabled, the siren/horn will chirp once when all of the doors are 

closed. It will start a 30 second countdown (indicated by a fast flashing status light) after which the 

system will lock and/or arm. The 30 second arming delay will pause while a point of entry is open. 

Turning ON the ignition key will cancel the arming sequence until the key is turned off and the 

doors are all closed once again. 

   

NOTE: Installer feature #13 must be on and the system must be wired for security 

   functions.

NOTE: Security features are optional for the RS-260-EDPB. Talk to your dealer to learn 

more about upgrading.
