Advanced Features: Installation-programmable options
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. Please note that the following
programmable options may require additional parts and labor.
Passive or Active Arming of the Starter Kill
See section “Arming the Starting Kill” earlier in this guide.
Remote Door Locks
If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Remote Door Locks option, you will have the
convenience of remote keyless entry. See section “Arming the Starter Kill”, earlier in this Guide, for
further instructions on remote door locking and unlocking.
Ignition-controlled Door Locks
This is an added security feature. If your remote starter was installed with the ignition-controlled door
locks option, the doors will automatically lock as soon as the 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 break pedal is pressed. When the key is turned to the OFF
position, the doors will automatically be unlocked.
Secure Lock
(Only for certain vehicles.) 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.
User Guide P. 7
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.
Remote Trunk Release
If your system was installed with the remote trunk release option, you can open your trunk by pressing
the Ι & ΙΙ buttons (simultaneously) on the remote transmitter. Vehicles must have an electric trunk
switch or a remote trunk button on the vehicle’s OEM transmitter for this option to be compatible with
the module.
Turbo Mode
If Turbo Mode is configured at installation, it will allow a turbocharger to idle down after the user leaves
the vehicle: the unit will take over the vehicle and keep it running for 60 seconds (or until it is shut down
by remote control), then shut down the engine.
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, proceed as follows to set the system to Turbo
Mode:
1. With the engine running, make sure to release the brake pedal and press the buttons Ι & ΙΙ on the
transmitter until the parking lights come ON.
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch. The engine will continue running.
3. Exit the vehicle and close all doors, hood and trunk.
4. Press the buttons Ι & ΙΙ to lock the doors (the engine will shut down after 60 seconds).
Note: If your vehicle has a manual transmission, Turbo Mode can be activated only if button Ι is
programmed as LOCK or UNLOCK button. Turbo Mode is activated through the same routine as that
used for Ready Mode; at the last step, the button Ι is pressed.
Note: The vehicle will enter Ready Mode once the engine run time expires.
Engine Run Time
If you have a gas engine, your remote starter can be programmed to run the engine for 3, 15, or
25 minutes (15 minutes by default). If you have a diesel engine, the remote starter can be programmed
to run the engine for 8, 20, or 30 minutes (20 minutes default).
P. 8 User Guide
Troubleshooting Poor Transmitting Range Issues
Many factors may affect the operating range of the transmitter. Some of these are:
• The condition of the battery in the transmitter.
• The operating environment (for example: downtown radio-frequency noise, airports, cellular phone
towers…).
• Metal: any type of metal will affect operating range. This includes the vehicle itself.
• The shape of the vehicle can affect range as well (vans in general have less range).
• The shape of the roof and A-pillars brings about considerable radio-frequency deflection (in this case
the signal from the remote control). As a result, the direction in which the vehicle is facing in relation
to the remote control can affect the range. Straight on (standing in front of the vehicle) generally
gives you the greatest range; the second best performance is from the back. Using the remote
control from either side of the vehicle will usually give the lowest range.
• The range will be significantly lower in a crowded parking lot than in open space.
• The transmitter’s antenna may be partially covered by the user’s fingers. Always hold the transmitter
high, approximately at shoulder height, and ensure that your fingers are not covering the antenna.
• The operating range will be somewhat lower on vehicles equipped with an aftermarket or factory
alarm.
