Using Your Remote Vehicle Starter
Remote Starting Your Vehicle
To activate the remote vehicle start function, press and release the OPT button on the remote control two (2)
times within 2 seconds. The vehicle’s horn will honk 1 time, the parking lights will flash 1 time and the
system will check the vehicle to ensure it is safe to start, if all safety parameters are correct, the vehicle will
start within 5 seconds (diesel vehicles will take longer). The vehicle’s parking lights will turn on (or flash
depending on system settings) as a visual indication that the vehicle has started and is running. Press and
release the OPT button on the remote control two (2) times within 2 seconds again to turn the remote
vehicle started off.
If your vehicle stalls or does not start
If your vehicle stalls or does not start, the Code Alarm CA-535 will pause 5 seconds, then try 3 more times
to start the vehicle (a total of four attempts). The system will pause 5 seconds between each start attempt. If
the vehicle does not start after the fourth attempt, the Code Alarm CA-535 will abort the remote vehicle start
process.
