Timer Start operation
Activation begins a countdown timer as set by the installer (de-
fault three hours). When the timer expires the engine starts. When
the Remote start runtime expires the engine shuts off, and the
countdown timer restarts. This will repeat as many times as set
by the installer (default is six starts). Timer Start is exited after the
final start.
Smart Start operation
Smart Start uses the settings for Timer Start in addition to tempera-
ture and battery level to automatically start the engine. Activation
begins the countdown timer. When the timer expires the vehicle
interior temperature and battery level is checked and, if the Tem-
perature is above 100°F, below 0°F, or the battery level is be-
low 10.5V, the engine will start. When the Remote Start runtime
expires, the engine shuts off, and the countdown timer restarts.
Smart Start is exited after the final start.
