Remaining In Ready Mode
Once the vehicle is in Ready Mode you can start and stop the vehicle at wish. However, should
any of the following occur, the vehicle will exit Ready Mode – thus eliminating the remote start
option until Ready Mode is restored:
•
Door opened;
•
Hood opened;
•
Brake pedal pressed;
•
Parking brake disengaged;
•
Ignition key turned to the
IGNITION ON (RUN)
position.
Note:
The unit will notify the user that it has exited Ready Mode by giving 3 slow flashes
(parking lights).
Remote-starting
Press the
START
button for approx. 1 second. The parking lights will come
ON
to inform you that the
Remote Car Starter has received your signal. Approximately 5 seconds later, the engine will start.
The parking lights will remain
ON
during the pre-programmed run time of the engine.
If the vehicle does not start at the first attempt, the system will shut down, wait a few seconds and
try to start the engine again.
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission
, there will
be 3 start attempts before the system gives up.
Driving Off
With the vehicle running under remote control, press the
UNLOCK
button to disarm and unlock the
doors. Enter the vehicle and do the following:
Turn the ignition key to the
IGNITION ON (RUN)
position. (
Do not turn the key
to the
CRANK
position
while the engine is running. This would cause the starter motor to re-engage.)
Press the brake pedal to disengage the remote starter unit.
You are now ready to drive off.
Remote Starter Features
Idle Mode
Convenience feature:
Idle Mode allows you to keep the engine running and the doors
locked while you stop, for example, at a convenience store or for a short delivery.
This feature allows you to let the remote starter take over control of the vehicle (i.e. no Key in the
Ignition Switch) while the engine is running. For example, if you stop for a delivery or at a conveni-
ence store, lock your vehicle and leave it running for the length of a run cycle while you are away.
To leave the vehicle in Idle Mode if your vehicle has an automatic transmission:
1.
With the engine running, press the
LOCK
or
UNLOCK
button (to unlock the doors) or the
START
button on the remote control until the parking lights come on.
2.
Remove the key and exit the vehicle. The engine will go on running.
3.
Lock the doors if needed.
The engine will go on running until the user re-enters the vehicle or until the expiration of the
Engine Run Time.
If your vehicle has a manual transmission, Idle Mode can be activated through the same routine as
that used for Ready Mode; at the last step, the
TRUNK
button is pressed instead of the other
buttons:
