Safe Start 

If this feature is enabled, the user must press the 

START/STOP

 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 the 

SHIFT 

button and then the 

LOCK

 button. The 

AUX 2

 output can be activated by pressing the 

START/STOP

 button.

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, on page 9, for full instructions. 

Ignition-Controlled Door Locks 

This is an added security feature. If your remote 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 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 

Before it can remote-start your vehicle, the remote 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 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 on page 8. 

Remote Trunk Release 

If your system was installed with the remote trunk release option, you can open your trunk by 
pressing the 

TRUNK

 button.  There will be one beep and LED #4 will flash 3 times. 

Engine Run Time 

If you have a gas engine, your remote 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 starter can be 
programmed to run the engine for 9, 20, or 30 minutes (20 minutes default).   

Extended Run Time 

While the vehicle is running under a remote start, pressing and holding the 

START/STOP

 button 

for more than 3 seconds will reset the run time counter to zero and restart the run time cycle from 
the beginning.  There will be one beep 

a pause

 three more beeps; the parking lights will flash 

three times and the horn (if configured) will honk once. The extended run time procedure can 
only be carried out once per remote start.  
  
To stop the vehicle, at any moment, simply press the 

START/STOP

 button.  

Example:   If your remote car starter is programmed for a run time of 4 minutes and your vehicle 

has been running for 3 minutes already, pressing the 

START/STOP

 button will reset the 

counter to zero and allow the engine to run for another cycle (in this case, 4 minutes).
