1) Turn the ignition key “On” (and leave it “on”).
2) Within 7 seconds press the Valet Switch 5 times.
The receiver unity’s Status Lights turn on, and the horn chirps once (if connected).
3) Within 15 seconds press the first transmitter’s “LOCK” and “UNLOCK” buttons together.
The MARS will acknowledge the transmission by momentarily turning off the
Status Lights and chirping the horn 1 time.
4) Within 15 seconds press the next transmitter’s “LOCK” and “UNLOCK” together.
The Status Lights turn off and the horn chirps once.
Repeat this action for each remaining transmitter.
Exiting Programming Mode:
Simply allow the MARS to time out of the programming mode, by not transmitting for 15
seconds; or, turn the ignition “Off” to exit immediately.
The MARS indicates its exit from programming mode by turning off the Status
Lights and a series of horn chirps.
Any time that transmitters are programmed to operate the MARS, for 48 hours
afterward every time that the ignition key is turned “on” the horn will briefly chirp
and the Status Light will flash the number of operating transmitters. This is
“Unauthorized Transmitter Alert”, protecting against unauthorized transmitters.

•
Have present all of the transmitters which are to operate the MARS. When one
transmitter is programmed, all prior transmitters are erased- program all transmitters.
•
If the additional transmitters are for a second car, put the multi-car switch on these
transmitters only in the “B” position.
After reading this manual, start the installation by affixing the WARNING
DECAL to a visible area in the engine compartment!
Do not attempt to install this Remote Car Starter into a manual transmission
vehicle! Doing so could cause serious property damage, personal injury,
and will void all warranties!
Be aware of, and avoid, any airbag circuitry! Due to the fact that an installer
will not be in a normal, upright seated position, severe injury may occur in an
accidental airbag deployment!
The use of a Digital Multimeter (DMM) or Volt-Ohm Meter (VOM) instead of a
standard testlight is required. This can greatly reduce the risk of an acciden-
tal airbag deployment or on-board computer damage.
Battery gases are explosive! Avoid sparks and do not smoke while working
near the vehicle's battery!
Always protect wires routed through the firewall from sharp metal edges and
hot parts of the engine! Always fuse positive wires at their source!
Installation Considerations: This entire booklet should be read before starting the
installation. An understanding of which control module wires are to be used and their
functions is essential. Installations will vary from car to car, as some control module wires
are required, while others are optional. Before starting the installation, it should be deter-
