PLEASE READ COMPLETELY BEFORE BEGINNING
Congratulations on your purchase of the AutoCommand
®
Professional Series Remote Car Starter. The AutoCommand
®
Professional Series Remote Car Starter system allows you
to start the car by remote control from the comfort of your home or office in order to cool it down in the summer or heat it up in the winter.
AutoCommand
®
Professional Series is for
automatic transmission/fuel injected vehicles only
. It is an extremely sophisticated system with multiple built-in safety and
security features.
AutoCommand
®
Professional Series Car Starter:
• Will start your car by remote control, and run the heater, defroster, or
air conditioner to warm up or cool down the car from up to 1,000 feet
away.
• Is designed to start the car only if it is in park, and only if the hood is
closed.
• Has Lock, Unlock and Trunk keyless entry features.
• Will attempt to start the car for up to six seconds, but no longer (to
avoid damage to the starter motor). Should the car not start, or if it
stalls after starting, the remote starter will make two further attempts
to start it.
• Has alarm functions including starter kill which becomes active when
the doors are locked with the remote control.
• Will not let the car be driven without the key in the ignition.
• Shuts itself off automatically after 10 or 15 minutes (programmable) if
you forget to come out to your car.
• Will shut off if the brake pedal is pushed, the hood is opened, or the
transmission is shifted out of park - unless the key is in the ignition and
in the “run” position.
• Allows you to remove the key while leaving the car running with the
doors locked for up to 10 or 15 minutes by utilizing the Quick Stop™
Option. (See Separate User Tip Sheet.)
• Starts the car automatically whenever the temperature drops below
0
°
F (-18
°
C), or if the battery voltage drops below 11 volts when the
Cold Start™ Option is used. (See Separate User Tip Sheet.)
• Has the “Daily Start™” feature which allows the vehicle to be started
at the same time the following day. (See Separate User Tip Sheet)
• Is quality engineered, microprocessor controlled, and made in the USA
to provide many years of reliable use.
• Comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
