Basic Functions
1.
To start/stop the heater by using additional remote control, see
documentation for the remote control. Functionality of the remote control
depends on its possibilities, connection schemes and module’s settings.
2.
To start the heater by using the original Ford key press “Lock” button 3
times on the key. Time intervals between presses must not exceed 20
seconds. The unlocking of the vehicle or time interval excess will restart the
counter of “Lock” button presses. Look at the direction indicators to be sure
that RCP has received a command from the key. Every button press on the
key will be confirmed by direction indicators (if the car has been locked
before). Also if the car equipped by keyless entry system, you can use
button on the door handle as “Lock” button to start the heater outside the car
(passive key must be presented). You can see series of double flashes in
direction indicators of rear-view mirrors when the heater starts to operate
(choose setting 6.1.2 to activate this function).
3.
The RCP adjusted by default only to switch the heater on by using Ford key.
If you also wish to switch the heater off, change the setting 5.1. As both the
commands use the same combination of “Lock” presses, you should know a
condition of the heater before a command send. Therefore we recommend
you to activate the settings 6.4 – 6.6 to see the heater condition indicated by
turn signals flashing in the rear-view mirrors. The possibility to stop the
heater remotely may be useful in case of cancelation of the trip, including
ones programmed by DIS.
4.
You can remotely cancel the start of the heater by a DIS program, if your
additional remote control can send stop command when the heater is idle.
After stop command sending, DIS programs will be temporary disabled.
Start the heater by any way or turn the ignition on enables DIS programs
again.
5.
Additionally connected button gives several functions. Current function is
defined by heater, ignition and engine conditions (see table. 3)
When the ignition is turned off, the button is used for immediate start or
stop of the heater. Button press changes heater condition to another one:
switches off the operated heater or switches on the idle heater.
