Advanced Features: Installation-programmable Options
The remote car starter was designed with flexibility and OEM integration in mind. With its program-
mable options, this unit can single-handedly control nearly any electrical system in your vehicle.
Caution:
The programming of your system should be left to a professional. Changing any one of
the settings may affect the operation of your Remote Car Starter.
Ignition-controlled Door Locks
This is an added security feature. If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Ignition-
Controlled Door Locks option, the doors will automatically lock as soon as the ignition key is turned
to the
IGNITION ON (RUN)
position while the brakes are pressed. The remote car starter will also
lock any door that was unlocked and opened (then closed) the next time the brake pedal is pressed
(only when doors are monitored). When the key is turned to the
OFF
position, the doors will
automatically be unlocked.
Secure Lock
(Disabled by default.) Before your vehicle can be remote-started, the factory security system must
first be disarmed. The Secure Lock feature may be required on certain vehicle models with factory
security systems that automatically unlock the doors when the security system is disarmed.
To keep your vehicle protected when the factory security system is disarmed for a remote start,
Secure Lock will relock your doors as soon as the vehicle is started. Once the engine is shut down
by remote or after its runtime has expired, Secure Lock will also rearm your factory security system
and relock the doors.
