USER TIPS
AND NOTES
The Remote Car Starter must be “enabled” each time the driver has finished driving and taken out
the key in order for the unit to start the vehicle remotely
. After the key has been removed, you must push
the control switch OFF (LED turns Green) and then push it back ON (LED turns Red) again while no key is in the
ignition. The LED will glow red signifying the system is ready to start. This “control switch” or “set switch”
prevents unauthorized starting of the car by someone unfamiliar with the system who may be using the vehicle.
If you forget to set the switch, it may also be activated by pushing the transmitter and holding the button down
for seven seconds. T
o eliminate the need for this, see
Option #7 (Setting Program Features)
.
The AutoCommand
®
Remote Car Starter will turn the car off if the driver does not insert and turn the key within
10 or 15 minutes.
After the
AutoCommand
®
Remote Car Starter has started your car
, simply put in the key and
turn it to the “run” or “on” ignition position (not the crank position), push the brake pedal and drive away
.
The AutoCommand
®
Remote Car Starter has numerous safety and security features that make it difficult to steal
your car without the key being in the ignition. Putting your car in gear
, pushing the brake pedal or opening the hood
will turn the unit off unless your key is in the ignition and turned to the “run” or “on” position.
If all features are installed, your transmitter will function as follows:
Button:
Do not push for your first ‘main’ vehicle
Once: T
o operate vehicle #2 - then any of the 4 buttons (LED flashes red
and green)
Again:

For vehicle #4 - then any of the 4 buttons (LED flashes green)

Again:

A

Button
Once: Lock the door / arm the alarm
Button
Once: Unlock the door / disarm the alarm
Hold down
for 4 seconds to open the T
runk.
(If you get 4 chirps – that means the alarm was triggered while
you were away)
The LED on the transmitter will display 3 different colors - Red for the
start button,
Ye
llow for the
lights button, and Green for the
lock and
unlock buttons. The transmitter is powered by a long life lithium
battery (CR 2032 style). The transmitter and receiver are FCC and DOC approved.
To Disarm the Alarm without the Transmitter:
If the doors are locked, the alarm is set, and you’ve lost your transmitter
, you can still disable the alarm. Here is
how: Enter the vehicle (alarm will sound) and insert the key and turn it to the ‘run’ position (the position where the
instruments and gauges turn on). Push and release the On/Off switch Off and On 8 times in a row to disable the
alarm.
Valet Mode:
Pushing the Control switch off (LED turns Green) puts you in V
alet Mode. In V
alet Mode, the Remote Car Starter
and the alarm will not function. This lets you turn off the car starter when having the vehicle serviced. The only
functions that work in V
alet Mode are the keyless entry
, lights and panic. Simply push the Control switch once
again (LED turns Red) to exit V
alet Mode.
