Safety Features:
Certain conditions will prevent the engine from remotely
starting, or if remotely started already, will stop the running engine. These
conditions are:
•
A pressed brake pedal.
•
The gear selector not being in the “park” or “neutral” position, or alternatively,
the parking brake not being set.
•
An open hood.
•
If manual transmission, the vehicle was entered or disturbed after the setup
procedure was performed.
An open door will not prevent the system from starting the engine; if the engine has
already been remotely started, opening a door will not stop the running engine,
unless the system is armed. Opening a door with the engine running by remote
control and the system armed will result in activating the system, which will stop
the running engine.
To drive the vehicle away after remote starting, disarm the system (if needed) open
the door to enter the vehicle, insert the key into the ignition switch and turn the
switch to “on” or “run” position (not “start”!). Then press the brake pedal or remove
the gear selector from “park”; now the engine is no longer running from the system,
but rather from the ignition key. To indicate this, the system will briefly sound the
siren. Pressing the Valet Switch will also turn off the system’s running the engine,
but without the violated safety circuit siren sounding.
If a start command is sent from the transmitter, but any of the following conditions
are present, the system will not attempt to start the engine and will instead have a
short sounding of the siren to indicate a violated safety circuit. The violated safety
circuit conditions which can produce this indication are the gear selector not in the
“park” position, an open hood or trunk, or a pressed brake pedal.
“Stick Shift” Remote Starting Setup Procedure:
When the system is in-
stalled into a manual transmission vehicle, Installer Programmable Feature #5 must
be turned on. Then, whenever remote starting will be desired at a later time
thefollowing procedure must be performed before exiting the vehicle:
To custom program a new SecureCode:
Step 3
After entering the first stage by pressing the “arm/lock” button the
desired number of times, and receiving a chirp for each press, wait for the
Step 2
Within 10 seconds slowly press and release the transmitter’s
“arm/lock” button the number of times equal to the desired SecureCode
for stage 1, allow the system to respond to each transmitter
button press with a siren chirp before pressing the button again.
Step 1
Follow Steps 1 to 4 in the previous “How to Program Features” instruc-
tions; at Step 4 the Valet Switch will be pressed and released once (the
siren chirps once) to access “feature #1”.
Feature #1 SecureCode
Factory Default Setting
1 Press
Options:
1 to 9 presses, in each of two stages
Step 4
Continue to configure stage 2 of the SecureCode by now pressing and
releasing the “disarm/unlock” button the number of times desired for the
stage 2. This should be done in the exact same fashion as the stage 1 entry-
press the “disarm/unlock” button, wait for a single chirp before pressing
the button again, and then when final button press is done, wait after the
single chirp for the siren to chirp the total number entered Valet Switch
entry.
system, after the final button press, to chirp the siren again the total

“Last Door Arming” has the system automatically arm itself every time you exit the
vehicle (the complete operation is described on pages 8 & 9). This feature turns that
operation on or off, and with options of having Last Door Arming operate with or
without also locking the doors when the system does arm.
SecureCode is a unique patented feature which allows you to custom select the
number of Valet Switch presses in two stages, instead of a single “1 press”, which
would be required in order to perform an Emergency Override. If any of the three
anti-carjacking features are utilized, a customized SecureCode would also be
required to turn it off once it is fully activated. The SecureCode operation is
described on page 19.
