 ACCESSORY PRESET

Heater & Heated Seat(s): 

When leaving the vehicle it is recommended that the driver pre-set 

the climate controls in preparation for a later Remote-Start. When the vehicle Remote-
Starts, the current (or last) setting for the climate controls, windshield wipers (and other 
accessories) will be used. When setting the blower motor (fan speed) and heated seats (if 
equipped) should not be left on HIGH. It is recommended to leave these settings on either 
a LOW or MEDIUM setting.

 Windshield Wipers & Radio & Headlights: 

Some vehicles require the radio, windshield wiper, 

headlight circuits to become energized while running under Remote-Start. When leaving the 
vehicle you must ensure that the windshield wiper and headlight switches are turned off. 
Leaving the headlights on with some vehicles could cause them to remain on even after the 
Remote-Starter has shut down, resulting in a dead battery.

 Rear Defrost: 

On most vehicles the Rear Defrost can only be activated after the vehicle has 

been started and in most cases this feature is not included with a Remote-Starter installa-
tion. On some vehicles it may be possible for the installer to hook this feature up so it either 
automatically enables after Remote-Start or can be enabled by using an AUX output. (See 
Auxiliary use, page 10) 

 Driver Presets: 

Some vehicles retain different seat, mirror and radio settings for each dri-

ver. Different driver presets are not controlled by the Remote-Starter, however they may be 
controlled with the Bypass/Interface Kit.

 READY MODE  (MANUAL TRANSMISSION ONLY) 

 Two activation methods are possible, please consult the salesman or installer to determine which of 
these modes applies to your vehicle.
 There are always safety concerns for a manual transmission vehicle to accidentally start while in gear, 
Ready Mode alleviates these concerns. The driver must enable Ready Mode in order to Remote-Start the 
vehicle at a later time. Once Ready Mode is set-up the vehicle can be started/stopped at will, as many 
times as needed. However once the parking brake is disengaged, the hood is opened, or any of the doors 
are opened, Ready Mode will deactivate and the vehicle will not start until Ready Mode is reactivated.
