allow the engine to idle after driving to cool the turbocharger� when this Installer
Programmable Feature is enabled, the system will automatically keep the engine
running as follows:
• With the engine running, hold the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.
when the brake pedal is released, the system will keep the engine running for the
programmed time (1, 2, or 3 minutes), and then automatically turn it off�

prevented from engaging, or “bypassed” if desired, by turning the engine off before
engaging the parking brake, or if it’s already engaged, step on the brake pedal to
turn the engine off�
This feature will automatically start the engine should the vehicle battery drop
below 11 volts or the interior temperature drop to 15 (or 32) degrees fahrenheit� This
feature is very useful when the vehicle is parked for a long period of time in cold
climates� you must activate these features each time you park your car and wish to
use them�

press the valet switch twice� If there is a 2 second delay without additional valet

degrees) within 5 seconds. The horn will honk to confirm your selection.
