Thank you for purchasing this Remote-Starter/Security-System. This is a state of the art Remote-
Starter/Security-System including numerous new comfort and security features, and all of the
elementary features generally offered with most basic Remote-Starter systems. There are certain
features listed in this manual that may not be available for your system. There may also be features
listed in this manual that require additional installation or programming before they are active. In
order to truly enjoy the benefits of this system, we recommend that you
thoroughly review the following manual.
This system contains transmitter(s) and a receiver with 750m/2500ft range.

(

See Page 8
).
NOTE
• The system can be configured in three different ways: Remote Start only, alarm only or alarm and
remote starter.
• The options vary by vehicle, the components can be added to the system and the functions on the
vehicle.
REMOTE-STARTING
(WITH OPTION AVAILABLE)
REMOTE-STARTING THE VEHICLE
This Remote-Starter supports both manual and automatic transmission vehicles. For manual
transmission vehicles
Æ
see the Ready Mode section.
REMOTE-STARTING
ÉTAPE 1
To remote-start the vehicle press the
START
button for
approximately 1 second.
ÉTAPE 2
The parking lights will turn on to indicate a response to the Remote-
Start signal.
ÉTAPE 3
Approximately 5 seconds later the engine will crank. Once the
vehicle starts the parking lights will turn on and remain on for the
entire duration of the Remote-Starter runtime, or until the Remote-
Starter is shut down.
If the vehicle fails to start on the first attempt, the Remote-Starter will wait 3 seconds before it will
attempt to start the vehicle again. The Remote-Starter will attempt to start the vehicle 2 times
(default) before giving up. (

FAILED REMOTE START

ACCESSORY PRESET
Heater & Heated Seat(s):
When leaving the vehicle it is recommended that the driver pre-set the climate
controls in preparation for a later Remote-Start. When the vehicle Remote-Starts, the current (or
last) setting for the climate controls, windshield wipers (and other accessories) will be used. When
setting the blower motor (fan speed) and heated seats (if equipped) should not be left on
HIGH
. It is
recommended to leave these settings on either a
LOW
or
MEDIUM
setting.
Windshield Wipers & Radio & Headlights:
Some vehicles require the radio, windshield wiper, headlight circuits
to become energized while running under Remote-Start. When leaving the vehicle you must ensure
that the windshield wiper and headlight switches are turned off. Leaving the headlights on with some
vehicles could cause them to remain on even after the Remote-Starter has shut down, resulting in a
dead battery.
Rear Defrost:
On most vehicles the Rear Defrost can only be activated after the vehicle has been started
and in most cases this feature is not included with a Remote-Starter installation. On some vehicles it
may be possible for the installer to hook this feature up so it either automatically enables after
Remote-Start or can be enabled by using an AUX output. (
Æ
See Auxiliary Use p. 10)
Driver Presets:
Some vehicles retain different seat, mirror and radio settings for each driver. Different
driver presets are not controlled by the Remote-Starter, however they may be controlled with the
Bypass/Interface Kit.
