In Valet Mode: the LED will remain lit without flashing. 

 

Flashing LED 

OFF

the LED will not flash even when the Remote Car Starter is armed (either 

under active or passive arming). Nevertheless, if the Remote Car Starter enters Valet Mode, the 
LED will still remain lit without flashing as long as the ignition is off. 

Safe Start 

If this feature is enabled, the user must press the 

START

 button 2 times within 3 seconds to remote-

start the vehicle. This will eliminate accidental remote starts, e.g. when children are playing with the 
transmitter. 
If  Swap Start Mode is selected, to remote-start your vehicle press 

LOCK

 and 

UNLOCK

 

simultaneously. The

Home Valet 

TM

 

If this feature is installed, the user will have the possibility to remotely set the vehicle to a no-
remote-start mode. See Home Valet section, earlier in this Guide, for full instructions. 

Ignition-controlled Door Locks 

This is an added security feature. If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Ignition-
Controlled Door Locks option, the doors will automatically be locked as soon as the ignition key is 
turned to the 

IGNITION ON (RUN)

 position while the brakes are pressed. When the key is turned to the 

OFF

 position, the doors will automatically be unlocked. 

Ignition Re-lock 

On Remote Car Starters of this series, when Ignition-controlled Door Locks are enabled and the 
ignition key is in the 

IGNITION ON (RUN)

 position, should any door be unlocked and opened, all doors 

will be relocked next time the brake pedal is pressed. 

Secure Lock 

(Disabled by default.) Before it can remote-start your vehicle, the Remote Car Starter must first 
disarm the factory security system. The Secure Lock feature may be required on certain vehicle 
models with factory security systems that automatically unlock the doors when the security system 
is disarmed. 
To keep your vehicle protected when the factory security system is disarmed for a remote start, 
Secure Lock will relock your doors as soon as the vehicle has started. Once the engine run cycle 
ends, Secure Lock will rearm your factory security system. 

Turbo Mode 

When left in Turbo Mode, the Remote Car Starter will keep the engine running for 60 seconds 
before shutting it down. This is to allow a turbocharger to idle down after the user leaves the 
vehicle. See Turbo Mode section earlier in this Guide. 

Remote Trunk Release 

If your system was installed with the Remote Trunk Release option, you can open your trunk by 
pressing the 

TRUNK

 button for 3 seconds on the remote transmitter or by pressing the 

TRUNK

 button 

TWICE

 within 3 seconds. 

Engine Run Time 

If you have a gas engine, your Remote Car Starter can be programmed to run the engine for 4, 15, 
or 25 minutes (15 minutes by default). If you have a diesel engine, the Remote Car Starter can be 
programmed to run the engine for 9, 20, or 30 minutes (20 minutes default).   

Extended Run Time  

With the vehicle running under a remote start, pressing and holding the 

START

 button for more than 

1 second will reset the run time counter to zero and restart the run time cycle from the beginning.
