Quick Reference
When servicing or loaning your vehicle to others, the system should be placed in Valet Mode. Valet Mode prevents the system from remote starting and disables
all alarm functions.
IMPORTANT: While in Valet mode the remote will still control power lock and unlock systems. The parking lights will not flash.
The system can be put into valet one of three ways:
1. Turn the vehicle’s key to the ignition “on” position and tap buttons (I + III) simultaneously for 0.5 second. The parking lights will flash once and
the LCD will display Z’s above the vehicle image to confirm the system is in valet mode. Repeat this process to take the system out of valet mode.
The parking lights will flash twice and Z’s will disappear to confirm the system is out of valet mode.
2. If you do not have your remote control, you can put the system into valet by turning the ignition key “on” and then “off” five times within 7 seconds. The
parking lights will flash once to confirm the system is in valet mode. Shortly after the first flash, the parking lights will flash twice. A remote control is required to
take the system out of valet mode.
3. If your system is set up for a secure valet option (optional), you will not be able to put the system into valet until the proper code has been entered to the
secure valet switch. The secure valet switch is the small button with bright blue LED on the front and if installed is the only way to override the alarm and/or
remote start. Until programmed, the default code is (3, 3).

Quick Reference
The only regular maintenance this system requires is remote control battery replacement. No programming is required when replacing the battery.
Two Way Remotes:
First, release the battery cover lock located on the back of the remote. Once the lock is released, gently slide the battery cover off to expose the battery. With the
exception of the 2WSSR-PRO (Uses 1 AA battery) all Firstech 2 Way remotes require one AAA battery.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to observe correct polarity when installing the battery.
One Way Remotes:
First, remove the small Phillips screw located on the back of the remote. Once the screw has been removed, gently pull the remote apart taking care to not damage
the circuit board. 1 Way remote batteries differ among the models. Your battery size should be listed on the battery. Replacements can be purchased from your
local Firstech dealer or an electronics store.

Lock/Arm - Unlock/Disarm
This icon indicates whether the system is locked/armed or unlocked/disarmed. While armed, the system will monitor the doors,
trunk, hood, shock sensor, and aux inputs. If any of these inputs are triggered while the system is armed, the alarm will be triggered.
Trunk Release
This icon will be displayed when the trunk release function has been activated. By default, the system will be disarmed and the
doors will unlock before the trunk is released.
Signal Strength
This icon is displayed if the last communication to the vehicle was successful.
Valet Mode
This icon will be displayed while you are in Valet mode. While in valet mode, the system will not perform any functions other than
lock and unlock. The alarm will not arm or disarm while locking or unlocking. If any other function is attempted, Sleep will be
displayed. The system will not monitor the alarm triggers while in Valet mode.
Battery Indicator
This icon displays the remaining battery life left in 25% increments.
Car Call
This icon will be displayed while someone is attempting to contact you using the RPS sensor. To trigger the RPS sensor, you must
knock on the windshield where the sensor is located. Something that creates a higher pitch, like a key, is better suited to trigger the RPS.

remote-starting. The siren will still sound if the alarm is triggered.
Hood
This icon will be displayed if the hood is opened while the system is armed. The remote will beep rapidly while displaying this icon.
This means that the alarm was triggered. If this icon appears while trying to remote-start the vehicle, it means that the vehicle will
not start because the hood is open.
15 By Firstech, LLCBy Firstech, LLC 14
Impact
This icon will be displayed if an impact to the vehicle is detected while the system is armed. The remote will beep rapidly while
displaying this icon if the impact is hard; this means that the alarm was triggered. If it beeps slowly while displaying this icon, that
means that the impact was soft and that the alarm simply gave four warning chirps.
Door
This icon will be displayed if the door is opened while the system is armed. The remote will beep rapidly while displaying this icon.
This means that the alarm was triggered. If this icon appears while trying to remote-start the vehicle, it means that the vehicle will
not start because the door is open.
Trunk
This icon will be displayed if the trunk is opened while the system is armed. The remote will beep rapidly while displaying this icon.
This means that the alarm was triggered. If this icon appears while trying to remote-start the vehicle, it means that the vehicle will
not start because the trunk is open.
Car Call
This icon will be displayed while someone is attempting to contact you using the RPS sensor. To trigger the RPS sensor, you must

system installed in it. The remote needs to be coded to the other vehicle in 2nd Car mode for this feature to work.
Vibration
This icon will be displayed if the remote is set to vibrate only. While the remote is set to vibrate only the remote will not beep,
even if the alarm is triggered. The remote will still vibrate in this mode.

beep and flash the alarm clock icon. Press button IV for 0.5 sec. to silence the remote.
Aux Mode (Alarm or alarm/starter systems only)
This icon will be displayed while you are in Aux mode. During this time, you can activate auxiliary outputs 1 or 2 by pressing
button II or III. Aux outputs can be used to activate various systems or functions in a vehicle.
Voltage
This icon will be displayed while the remote is reporting the voltage of the vehicle or remote battery.
Temperature

last door is closed or 30 seconds after the system was disarmed if no door was opened. This mode is ignored while the ignition is on
with the key.
Drive Lock
This icon will be displayed if Drive Lock mode is currently active. Drive Lock mode will lock the doors automatically if the ignition is
on and the brake is pressed or if the ignition is on and the engine exceeds the idle RPM multiplied by 2, depending on the options
set by the installer. The doors will be unlocked when the ignition is turned off. In a manual transmission vehicle the doors will
unlock when the emergency brake is set.

General System Functions General System Functions
The remote transmitter functions have been predetermined and programmed from the factory. The four button configuration allows for many functions to be
performed through a series of tapping, holding and / or multiple presses of buttons.
Sending Commands
When in range, and a command has been sent, the remote pager backlight will illuminate, the remote will beep and the appropriate icon will be displayed. For
example, to send a remote start command from the pager, hold down button (II) for 2.5 seconds. The backlight will illuminate and the remote will beep once to
confirm the command has been sent and that the remote is in range. Once the vehicle has successfully remote started, the remote will receive a command
indicating the vehicle is running.
Receiving Commands
The remote pager will receive commands indicating the status of the vehicle, confirmation of sending commands and alarm notifications. For example, after
sending the lock command, the pager will be updated with the lock icon to confirm the vehicle has been successfully locked/armed. To see if your pager is in
range, tap button (IV) for half second - if the pager backlight illuminates and beeps, the pager is in range.
Tap button (I) for 0.5 seconds to lock/arm and unlock/disarm. If your vehicle is locked, tap button (I) to unlock; if your vehicle is unlocked, tap
button (I) to lock. If equipped this will also activate your starter kill and anti grind feature. You will not be able to start your vehicle with the key
until unlock/disarm.
IMPORTANT: If the alarm has been triggered (Siren is going off), you must wait until the remote pager has been paged before disarming the alarm - the first
button tap will shut off the alarm and the second will unlock/disarm the system.
a@l@O@a@@u@O@d
The system can be configured to passively lock and arm the vehicle. Put the system in passive by tapping buttons (II+III) simultaneously for 0.5
seconds. The remote will beep once and the passive icon will illuminate to indicate the system is in passive lock and arming mode.
While in passive mode, the system will lock and arm the alarm 30 seconds after the last door is closed. As an indicator that the vehicle is going to passively lock
and arm, the remote and siren will chirp once and the parking lights will flash once at both 10 and 20 seconds prior to passively locking and arming. If you want
the system to passively arm and not passively lock, ask your local Firstech dealer to turn Option 1-8 to setting II.
p@l@O@a
Press button (II) for 2.5 seconds to remote start an automatic transmission vehicle. If you are in range and if the vehicle is ready to remote start, the
remote will beep once and the CompuGLO backlight will light up to indicate that the remote start command has been successfully transmitted.
If you are in range and the remote beeps three times, there is a remote start error. Refer to the “remote start error diagnostic” on the last page of this
manual for details.
Upon receiving confirmation that your vehicle is running, the LCD will flash the exhaust icon and the clock icon will begin to show the
amount of run-time remaining. The remote start run-time can be programmed for 3, 15, 25 or 45 minutes - ask your local CompuStar
dealer to adjust Option 2-7 if you would like a run-time other than 15 minutes (default).
IMPORTANT : Your vehicle’s key must be inserted into the ignition and turned to the “on” position prior to driving your vehicle. If the foot brake is
depressed prior to the key being in the “on” position, the vehicle will shut off.
