REMOTE ENGINE CONTROL 

 
REMOTE ENGINE STARTING – UNSUCCESSFUL START 

In the event that the engine does not start on the first attempt, the system shuts down for a few seconds, then 
attempts to restart the engine a 2

nd

 and 3

rd

 time.  For hard starting engines, the unit will allow a starter crank time of 

up to 4 seconds maximum.  This should provide ample cranking time for difficult starts, but is limited to 4 seconds to 
help prevent damage to the starter from over cranking. 
1)  If engine starts on 2

nd

 or 3

rd

 attempt, see steps 3 & 4 of “Successful Start” on page 4. 

2)  If  Third  attempt  fails  to  start  engine,  the  system  will  turn  off  and  doors  will  remain  locked.   

NO FURTHER 

ATTEMPTS WILL BE MADE AUTOMATICALLY

 

 

TURNING OFF A REMOTE STARTED ENGINE: 

1)  Engine is running in Remote Start (Parking lights ON).

3)  Engine & parking lights OFF, Doors re-lock/re-arm (programmable). 

 
 

ENTERING YOUR REMOTE STARTED VEHICLE: 

1)  With engine running, unlock system with remote (If equipped) or open door with key. 
2)  Enter vehicle and be careful not to step on brake pedal!  (Remote Start Reset) 
3)  Turn Ignition to ON/RUN position, then press brake pedal to reset the Remote Starter & Shift out of park.

now controlling your vehicle. 

 
REMOTE START 

RUN TIME RESET

:

 

The Remote Start Run Time is adjustable from 5 to 30 minutes (option # 20). Some local cities 

have a run time limit for unattended vehicle. You can now reset the engine-run timer to allow for more running 
time after remote start has already occurred using the remote control.  After a successful remote start, press 
both the Lock & Unlock buttons together for at least 2 seconds.  The parking lights will flash 3 times and 
internal engine timer will reset back to zero minutes. 

 
LOCK with REMOTE START and After REMOTE START ABORT: 

Option # 8 controls whether the system will automatically lock during and after a remote Start abort or time-out. This 
feature can be turned OFF. The default is Lock with Remote Start.
