VALET OVERRIDE MODE
Valet Override: The position of the Override switch allows or prevents the RS
unit
from being activated. This feature is used when you do not wish the unit to
be operated, such as when you leave it with a valet parking attendant, mechanic
or if you loan your car to another person.
To engage the Valet Override mode, simply turn the Override Switch OFF. It is
recommended to always turn the Override Switch OFF to prevent unintentional
or unauthorized use of the Remote Car Starter.
Note: Do not confuse the toggle type Valet Override switch with the push button
programming button.

!! WARNINGS !!
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 recommended. This can greatly reduce the risk of an
accidental 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 ran through the firewall from sharp metal edges and
hot parts of the engine! Always fuse positive wires at the battery or power
source!
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT!
After reading this manual, start the installation by affixing the
WARNING DECAL to a visible area in the engine compartment!
Installation Considerations: This entire booklet should be read before start-
ing 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 determined which control module wires will be used.
Most installers will list these wires, then "map out" the installation by locating and
noting the target wires in the vehicle. This will also determine the best location for
the RS control module, which is mounted upon completion of the installation.
This Remote Start Unit duplicates the actions that occur within the ignition switch
when you use your key to start the engine. Because of this, most of the main
wiring harness connections will be made at the ignition switch harness. The igni-
tion switch wires usually are high amperage circuits, which means that high reli-
ability connections must be made! We recommend proper soldering of all con-
nections.
Caution!
Avoid the Airbag circuit! Especially avoid any harness or wires en-
cased in Yellow or Red tubing or sleeves. Do not use a standard test light, as it
can deploy an airbag or damage on-board computers and sensors.
