Deactivation
•
Stepping on the brake pedal will turn the engine off.
•
To stop the engine by remote control, simply press the upper button again.
•
After the preset programmable time the MARS
will turn the engine off.
•
Opening the hood will turn the engine off. If the hood is open when an activation attempt
is made, the MARS will only flash the parking lights once, chirp the horn 3 times (option-
ally), but will not start the engine.
•
Pressing the Valet Switch will also stop the engine.
Valet Mode
The MARS may be placed into a “valet mode” which prevents the remote start feature
from being activated. Valet Mode should always be used when you do not wish for remote
starting to be operated, such as when you have your vehicle serviced or leave it with
someone else. The Valet Switch, in the Receiver Unit, is used to engage Valet Mode:
•
At any time simply press the Valet Switch for 5 seconds; the Status Light within the
Receiver Unit will light steady, to indicate Valet Mode, and stay illuminated continuously
while the system is in Valet Mode.
Once the MARS is in Valet Mode, an attempt to remote start will instead be acknowledged
by 1 long and 3 short parking light flashes, but no starting attempt. If the horn is connected,
it will sound briefly and then chirp 3 times.
•
To turn off Valet Mode, simply press the Valet Switch until the Status Light turns off.
Valet Mode only prevents the remote starting operation; the lock, unlock, and trunk release
functions all continue to operate when the MARS is in Valet Mode.
The Gray wire has a 500mA Negative output which is
operated by the transmitter button with the “open trunk” icon, and this output is designed
for trunk release. In most cases, an optional external relay will be needed.

Connection If Desired.
20-Gauge Brown Wire:
( - ) Horn Output
Connection If Desired.
The Brown wire is a 500mA Negative output designed to sound
the vehicle’s horn for audible operation confirmations and the remote “panic” feature. The
Brown wire may be connected directly to the vehicle's horn switch wire, provided that the
circuit operates with 1/2 Amp of current or less. The horn wire is typically found around
the steering column; the
correct wire will show
Positive 12 Volts norm-
ally, and no voltage when
the horn is being sounded.
If the horn circuit requires
more than 500mA, use
this diagram to config-
ure an optional relay.
