Congratulations on your purchase of the RS-3 Remote Car Starter. The RS-3
will allow you to start your vehicle's engine from the comfort of your home or
office, allowing your vehicle to warm up in winter and cool down in summer. When
you leave your vehicle, simply set the climate controls for what you desire to be
operating upon remote start - heater, defroster or air conditioning.
The RS-3 is an "Add-On" unit designed to be used in conjunction with another
remote control unit such as a remote vehicle security or keyless entry system.
We highly recommend that this system be professionally installed, as the com-
plexity of the modern automobile and the nature of circuits to be accessed is often
beyond the abilities of most do-it-yourselfers.
There are several safety considerations with using and installing the RS-3
Re-
mote Car Starter. Among them are:
-
This unit is for Automatic Transmission vehicles only. Installation in a manual
transmission equipped vehicle can result in property damage or personal in-
jury.
-
This unit is for fuel injected gasoline engines only.
-
Children should not be left unattended in, or be allowed to play with the activat
ing transmitters of a remote starter equipped vehicle.
-
Do not use this unit in an enclosed structure or garage.
