REMOTE-STARTING
REMOTE-STARTING THE VEHICLE
This Remote-Starter supports both manual and automatic transmission vehicles. For manual transmission vehicles see the Ready Mode section.
REMOTE-STARTING
STEP1
To remote-start the vehicle press the START button for approximately
3second. The remote Green Led flash and a ascending melodie will
sound to confirm.
STEP 2
The parking lights will turn on to indicate a response to the RemoteStart signal.
STEP 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. (See Failed Remote Start page 14)
Page 5 / 15
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 RemoteStarts, 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. (See Auxiliary Outputs page 11)
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.
READY MODE (MANUAL TRANSMISSION ONLY)
Two activation methods are possible, please consult the salesman or installer to determine which of
these modes applies to your vehicle.
There are always safety concerns for a manual transmission vehicle to accidentally start while in gear,
Ready Mode alleviates these concerns. The driver must enable Ready Mode in order to Remote-Start the
vehicle at a later time. Once Ready Mode is set-up the vehicle can be started/stopped at will, as many
times as needed. However once the parking brake is disengaged, the hood is opened, or any of the doors
are opened, Ready Mode will deactivate and the vehicle will not start until Ready Mode is reactivated.

AUDIBLE : Pressing the same button TWICE consecutively (LOCK or UNLOCK) the park lights will
flash, and the horn/siren will confirm the signal.
The Alarm can be programmed to audibly confirm the signal on the first button press. (See Installation
Guide).
ALARM ACTIVITY
The following characteristics enhance your vehicle’s security :
If the Alarm system is active and the horn/siren is sounding :
• Press the UNLOCK button ONCE to stop the alarm sound. The Alarm will remain active and will
immediately resound if a zone is (re)triggered.
• Press the UNLOCK button TWICE to stop the alarm sound, deactivate the Alarm, and unlock
the doors.
• When the vehicle is unlocked the horn/siren will sound with several short chirps to indicate the
zone that has previously triggered the Alarm. (See Remote-Start/Alarm Diagnostics page 15)
NOTE 1: If the vehicle is running with the Remote-Starter and the Alarm is triggered the Remote-Starter will
shut down immediately. This applies to Cold Start, Turbo and Idle Modes. However the vehicle can be RemoteStarted at a later time (i.e. The Alarm will not cancel Cold Start Timer).
NOTE 2: When an alarm infraction has occurred the LED on the antenna will quickly flash 3 times followed of
a long pause. It will continue to flash until the alarm is disabled.
OPEN ZONE NOTIFICATION
When the LOCK button is pressed to ARM the Alarm (non Valet Mode), it will indicate if there are
any zones which are currently active. The Alarm will sound with several short chirps to indicate which
zone is active. A silent ARM or only 1 chirp indicates that no zones are currently active. (See RemoteStarter/Alarm Diagnostics page 15)
FALSE ALARM DEACTIVATION
This option will disable any zone that triggers the alarm 3 consecutive times. The zone will automatically re-enable once the LOCK button or the UNLOCK button is pressed.
SHOCK SENSOR (ZONE 4)
The Alarm system supports FSS2Z (2 stage - 3 wire) Shock Sensors. The Shock Sensor will produce a
short audible warning on a weak shock, and will trigger a full alarm on a strong shock. Whenever the
vehicle is running with the Remote-Starter the shock sensor is ignored until the Remote-Starter shuts
down. However the Alarm can be set to monitor the Shock Sensor if the vehicle is Armed AFTER the
vehicle is Remote-Started.
VEHICLE LOCATOR/PANIC MODE
To locate your vehicle in a busy parking lot press the LOCK button for 3 seconds to sound the horn/siren
(If installed) and flash the parking lights. Press unlock to cancel this Mode.
Note: If an Alarm pre-triggered zone is in memory, this Mode will NOT clear this zone from memory.
SENSOR DEACTIVATION
In cases where a sensor is too sensitive and causes false alarms, it is possible to disable some of the
zones. The Shock Sensor (zone 4), Auxiliary In (zone 7) and the Tilt Sensor (zone 8). To disable all of
these zones press the auxiliary FUNCTION button followed by either the LOCK button or the UNLOCK
button. Confirmation of 1 signal indicates the zones are activated and 2 signals indicates the zones
are deactivated.

TRANSMITTER RANGE
Several factors may affect the operating range of the remote transmitter:
• A weak transmitter battery.
• The operating environment such as in the city and airports due to radio interference, cell phone
towers, etc…
• Several types of metal such as the vehicle itself, other vehicles, the windshields tint lines and
large buildings.
• The vehicle’s shape. Vans generally have poorer range.
• The shape of the vehicle’s roof and the A-pillars cause considerable radio-frequency deflection.
As a result, the direction in which the vehicle is facing with relation to the remote transmitter
can affect range. Facing the front of the vehicle generally produces the greatest range; secondly
facing the back. Facing either side of the vehicle will usually give the poorest range.
• The range will be significantly poorer in crowded parking lots as opposed to empty parking lots.
• Hold the transmitter at shoulder height or hold it against your chin so your body acts as a larger
antenna.
• The operating range will be somewhat poorer on vehicles equipped with a factory alarm or keyless entry system.
FAILED REMOTE-START
There are several different installation factors and devices that must work together in order for your
vehicle to Remote-Start properly. In some cases a failed Remote Start is not the fault of the RemoteStarter itself. Here are some things to consider when the Remote-Starter fails.
• Unmaintained Engine. If you have problems starting the vehicle with the key then the RemoteStarter will have the same difficulty.
• Low Battery. A battery’s voltage can drop to less than 4 volts DC (1/3 of the original) during cold
weather starting. Ensure your battery is working properly and is able to provide the proper current
needed to start the vehicle in extreme temperatures.
• Low Fuel, or water in the fuel tank. Keep your fuel tank full as much as possible to prevent the
build-up of condensation in the tank..
• A corroded or broken Hood Pin switch. Visually inspect the hood pin switch frequently. Cover with
a dialectic grease to prevent corrosion.
• Trailer wiring. Corroded or improperly wired trailer wiring may cause the park light signal to bleed
into the brake signal. This will cause the Remote-Starter to shut down as soon as the park lights
are turned on.
• Problems with the Bypass Kit (if installed). If you are able to put the Remote-Starter into Ready
Mode, Idle Mode, or Turbo Mode, but you are unable to Remote-Start the vehicle then the Bypass
Kit may be failing. Several Remote-Start attempts with a failed Bypass Kit may lock your vehicle
for several hours.
• Dash warning lights. The dash should display in exactly the same way when either starting the
vehicle with the key, or with the Remote-Starter. If the dash displays any warning lights (Check
Engine, ABS, or Theft) once Remote-Started then something is wrong. Stop using the RemoteStarter and have it looked at immediately.
TIP: If your vehicle is experiencing any problems either starting or running with the key have it looked
at by the Remote-Starter’s installer first. Having the vehicle worked on by another service centre may
void any warranty and/or guarantees on the Remote-Starter and its Installation. Additionally the original
installation centre may refuse all fees incurred by the latter service centre (if any).
