Safety Information
Please take these safety precautions under the following conditions:
1. Servicing the vehicle
When servicing (i.e. changing the oil, washing your car) your automobile, the
CompuStar system should be in Valet Mode. There is a safety shutdown switch
under the hood that deactivates the remote starter function if the hood is open.
However, if the switch has been damaged or the switch has been installed
improperly, the vehicle may start when Button II is pressed for 2 seconds even if
the hood is open.
2. Loaning your vehicle to others
Whenever you loan your vehicle to an individual who is not familiar with
Compustar, please put the vehicle in Valet mode. This will prevent the vehicle
loaner from accidentally activating the CompuStar auto-security system.
3. For manual transmission vehicles
If the Compustar 2WSSR is installed in a manual transmission vehicle, extra
precautions are required because the Compustar does not monitor the gear shift:
Important! Under normal circumstances, Reservation Mode is cancelled when a
door or hatchback opens. Please verify if the opening of any door or hatchback
cancels Reservation Mode. If any of the doors or hatchback is not monitored by
CompuStar because of improper installation or a faulty dome light switch, do not
use the CompuStar and take your vehicle to the dealer immediately for repair.
Do not set Reservation Mode when the window(s) are open or if there is anyone
inside of the vehicle including animals.

Remote - Pager Learn Routine
If you replace or add additional remotes, you can program up to three remotes,
please perform the following procedure:
© 2001 Firstech, Inc. Page 5
Step 1: Activate Valet/Programming mode by manually turning the ignition on and
off five times (between Acc and On) with car key within a 10 second period. The
parking light will flash once with successful completion of this step.
Step 2: Within a 10 second period after cycling the ignition for the 5th time, press
button I. The car parking lights will flash once to confirm that the transmitter has
been programmed. Continue program the additional remotes. The parking lights
will flash two times when the programming mode is expired.
Alarm Mode
You can arm or disarm alarm mode by pressing Button I for a ½second.
Press Buttons (I+II) for a ½second to make your car siren mute when arming or
disarming your vehicle. Keep in mind that your car siren will still activate for all
other modes (i.e. panic, alarm, shock sensor) regardless of whether or not your car
siren is in mute mode. The car siren will be mute only when arming or disarming
your vehicle.
In alarm mode, the starter kill function (this maybe an optional feature provided
by your installer) is activated. This feature disengages the starter mechanism on
your car that prevents you from starting your car even with a manual key when
your vehicle’s alarm mode is activated.
Note: If you lose your remote after you have armed the vehicle, use your key to
open the vehicle. The siren will go off. Turn on and off ignition 5 times with your
key to shut off the siren and turn the system into valet mode. Cancel the valet
mode with remote later. See Valet mode.
Note: (Siren duration is 30 to 60 sec depending on the options set at the time of initial
installation.)

Dual Stage Shock Sensor
Press Buttons (I+III) for 2 seconds to activate or deactivate the dual stage shock
sensor. The dual stage shock sensor will activate 30 seconds after the CompuStar
alarm mode is armed. When the dual shock sensor is engaged, the remote-pager
security alerts will be triggered by the following:
Light impact to your vehicle will activate the first stage shock sensor
and the car siren will chirp 4 times in addition to the parking lights
flashing 4 times. The remote pager unit will beep and the hammer icon
shows up a couple times
Heavy impact to your vehicle will activate the second stage shock
sensor and the car siren will chirp for 30 to 60 seconds and the parking
lights will flash for 30 to 60 seconds. The remote-pager will be notified
audibly and a hammer icon will blink in the CompuGLO LCD. Press
Button I for a ½second to turn off the second stage shock sensor sirens
and flashing lights.
Auto - Start Function
Press Button II for 2 seconds to auto-start an automatic transmission engine.
Remember that a manual key in the ignition is required to drive the car. In addition,
the anti-grind circuit (this maybe an optional feature provided by your installer)
prevents you from re-cranking the starter on a remote-started vehicle. Press Button
II for 2 seconds in order to turn off an auto-started car. For manual transmission
vehicles, please use reservation mode.
The engine will run 15 or 25 minutes (25 or 40 min for diesel) depending on preset
options at the time of installation and then shut off. If your remote-pager has a
problem starting the vehicle, CompuStar will try 2 additional times. If the engine
does not start after the third attempt, please call your authorized CompuStar
dealer.
Flashing Battery Icon during remote start. The battery icon flashes while
engine running. Each of the 4 bars of the battery indicates 25% of the
remaining engine running time.

Continuation Mode:
While your vehicle is running with your key, if you press button II for 2 seconds, you
are now in the continuation mode. Your engine will continue running for the preset
time even if you take your key from the ignition. With this mode, the engine will
continue running without key during your quick stop at, for example, a grocery
store.
Diagnosing problems with Auto-Start
If there is a problem in auto-starting your car, you will hear three chirps when you
attempt to auto-start the car. Wait for 2 seconds and the cause for the error will be
indicated by the number of times the car chirps and parking lights flash.

Reservation Off (Manual Transmission Only)
Reservation Mode (manual transmission only)
In order to auto-start your manual transmission car, you must first set the
CompuStar system to Reservation Mode before leaving your vehicle. The purpose
of Reservation Mode is to leave the transmission gear in the neutral position when
you leave your vehicle. Reservation mode is intended for use in MANUAL
TRANSMISSIONS ONLY and NOT FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS.
Reservation Mode must be engaged each and every time you leave your manual
transmission car in order to auto-start the vehicle.
Note: The system is not recommended for vehicles with removable tops.
Important Requirements to activate Reservation Mode
The transmission must be in the NEUTRAL position.
The vehicle windows must be rolled up.
Do not set the reservation mode with people in the vehicle.

OFF, place the transmission in the Neutral position.
Step 2: Remove your foot from the foot brake.
Step 3: Activate the parking brake.
Step 4: Remove the key from the ignition. The engine will remain running.
Step 5: Exit the vehicle and close the door within two minutes after activating the
parking brake. The engine will shut off and reservation mode for the remote starter
is now complete.
Your vehicle is now ready for auto-starting. However, the reservation mode will be
cancelled if the door is opened or the CompuStar system is put in Valet mode after
the reservation has been set. Once cancelled, you will have to start the vehicle with
the manual key and repeat the above 5 steps if you want to restore reservation
mode.
Important! If you try to auto-start the vehicle when reservation mode has not been
set or turned on, the auto-start feature will not work. When you press the auto-start
button, the remote beeps three times, the car parking lights will flash five times and
the siren chirps three times. A couple of seconds later, the cause for the error will
be indicated by the number of times the car chirps and parking lights flash. See
Page 11 for error messages.
Canceling Reservation Mode
If you do not want to set reservation mode, shut off the engine before you exit the
vehicle. The engine will shut off for the following reasons:
You did not activate the parking brake or press the foot brake when you
turned the manual key to the off position.
You released the parking brake while the engine was running.
