Green  (18 Ga.)  Wire:                                 Connection Required

The hood pin switch must be installed with RS-4LX.  It prevents operation of the

RS-4LX if the hood is open.  The Green wire connects to the hood pin switch.  Carefully
route the Green wire through the firewall, using an added or existing grommet.  Avoid any
hot or moving parts.  Mount the switch so that it is open (pin down) when the hood is shut
and closed (pin up) when the hood is open.

If there is an existing hood pin switch for an alarm system, you may use it for the Green

wire connection; diode-isolation is recommended:

 Hood
   Pin
Switch

To Existing Alarm

To RS-4LX Green

Wire

Optional Parts Needed:
  Two IN4002 Diodes

Instead of using a pin switch to monitor the hood's open or shut status, an Omega

AU-46 Mercury Tilt Switch may used.  Connect one of the AU-46's wires to Negative
Chassis Ground and connect the remaining wire to the RS-4LX's Green wire.

#7 The Pre-Activation Enable requires that the Override Switch be switched ON, then

OFF every time the key is removed for the Remote Car Starter to operate.

#8 Double Pulse Activation allows the RS-4LX to be activated by an existing Remote

Keyless Entry system (the Lock-Lock-Start feature). This option changes remote start
activation from a single (-) pulse on the Pink wire to two pulses within 5 seconds.

Changing Programmable Options: The majority of remote start installations will not

require changing the Programmable Feature's factory settings.  If an option needs to be
changed, follow this procedure:

1)

Turn the Override Switch OFF. Wait for the Diagnostic LED to stop flashing.

2)

Press and release the Left Control Button.  Each time the Left Control Button is
pressed the Diagnostic LED Light will flash 1 to 8 times (pressing the first time
will produce one flash, the second press will produce two flashes, the third press
will produce three flashes, etc.).  The number of flashes equals the option number.

3)

When the unit reaches the option level to be changed, press the Right Control
Button once and the Diagnostic LED Light will flash once or twice to indicate
the status of the option (see the previous page).

4)

When the option has been set as desired, repeat steps #2 and #3 for each additional
option to be changed.

5)

After 6 seconds of no programming activity, the unit will exit Programming Mode.
This is indicated by the Diagnostic LED Light flashing 3 times.  If more options
are to be changed, start at the second step again.

6)

Turn the Override Switch back to the ON position.
