In Valet Mode:

 the LED will remain lit without flashing.

 

Flashing LED 

OFF

the LED will not flash even when the Remote Car Starter is armed (either 

under active or passive arming). Nevertheless, if the Remote Car Starter enters Valet Mode, the 
LED will still remain lit without flashing as long as the ignition is off.

 

Horn Chirp Timing 

The pulse duration can be configured by your installer (from 5 ms to 200 ms). 

Multi-car Operation 

This option allows the owner of two vehicles, both equipped with the same Remote Car Starter 
model, to control both systems with a single remote control. To control the second vehicle, 
simultaneously press the 

TRUNK

 button and the button of the function you wish to use.  

Note:

 Your remote control must be configured for second car operation by the installer.

Troubleshooting Poor Transmitting Range 

Many factors may affect the operating range of the transmitter.  Some of these are: 

The condition of the battery in the transmitter. 
The operating environment (for example: downtown radio-frequency noise, airports, cellular 

phone towers…) 

Metal: any type of metal will affect operating range. This includes the metal in the car. 
The shape of the vehicle can affect range as well; vans in general have an especially poor 

range. 

The shape of the roof and A-pillars brings about considerable radio-frequency deflection (in this 

case the signal from the remote control). As a result, the direction in which the vehicle is 
facing in relation to the remote control can affect the range. Straight on – standing in front of 
the vehicle – generally gives you the greatest range; the second best performance is from the 
back. Using the remote control from either side of the vehicle will usually give the lowest 
range. 

The range will be significantly lower in a crowded parking lot than in open space. 
Always hold the transmitter high, approximately at shoulder height. Holding the transmitter 

against your chin will also increase your range: your head acts as an antenna.  

The operating range will be somewhat lower on vehicles equipped with an aftermarket or factory 

alarm. 

Intrusion Codes through Chirps 

If there has been an intrusion in the vehicle while it was locked and armed, the OEM alarm will 
provide in intrusion code matching the type of intrusion that took place. Disarm the alarm (

UNLOCK

to identify the intrusion.
