USER TIPS 

AND NOTES

The Remote Car Starter must be “enabled” each time the driver has finished driving and taken out the key

in order for the unit to start the vehicle remotely

.          After the key has been removed, you must turn OFF the

control switch and then turn it back ON again while no key is in the ignition.  This “control switch” or “set

switch” prevents unauthorized starting of the car by someone unfamiliar with the system who may be

using the vehicle.  If you forget to set the switch, it may also be activated by pushing the transmitter and

holding the button down for ten seconds. T

o

 eliminate the need for this, see Option #7.
