ing the engine�
Remote Starting Diagnostics
Whenever the system is placed into Valet Mode, the Status Light illuminates
solid. However, when this first occurs, the Status Light will flash 1 to 6 flashes be
-
fore resuming solid illumination� This indicates why the engine stopped running from
the last previous remote starting attempt�
6) 1 Flash = Programmed run time expired�
7) 2 Flashes = Brake was pressed or hood opened�
8) 3 Flashes = Engine stalled or bad tach signal�
9) 4 Flashes = Received transmitter command to stop�
10) 5 Flashes = Gear selector removed from “park”�
11) 6 FLashes = Low voltage�
Code Jumping
TM
Technology
With the proper equipment, it’s quite easy for a criminal to “grab” your transmitter
code from the air and use it at a later time to gain access to your vehicle contents
and potentially your home! Code jumping technology uses a complex algorithm to
change the transmitter’s codes every time a button is pressed� Only the system in
your car has the key to decipher this code and it is not replicable�
Automatic Transmitter Verification
TM
There is also the potential threat of someone, who has temporary access to your
vehicle, programming their own transmitter to your system� For example, a mechan-
ic, car wash attendant, or valet could do so and gather your personal info from any
paper work in your vehicle� Then, they could visit your home and help themselves
to the contents of your vehicle without any signs of intrusion� Many crimes go un-
noticed and people assume they have misplaced their belongings� ATV
TM
shows you
how many transmitters are programmed to your system every time you turn on the
ignition key for a 10 second period� Then, you can easily identify if transmitters have
been added to your system�
Unauthorized Transmitter alert
TM
This feature is a companion to ATV
TM
� With this feature enabled (see “Program-
ming Transmitters” for instructions), UTA
TM
will warn you with a series of horn honks
whenever the ignition key is turned “ON”� The warning will occur for a 48 hour period
and cannot be disabled during that time period (if it could be, then the thief could
disable it!)� ATV
TM
also extends to 90 seconds�
