Remote-starting Your Vehicle
Press the
START/STOP
button for approximately 1 second; the melody will play then stop. Once the
vehicle starts, the melody will play again and the icon “RUN” will flash for confirmation. The icon
will stop flashing when the key is inserted and turned to the “ON” position or when the entire pre-
programmed engine run time has elapsed.
If the vehicle doesn’t start the first time, the system will shut off, wait a few seconds and try to start
the engine again. It will make three start attempts before giving up.
Vehicle Presets
Heater and Heated Seat
When leaving the vehicle it is recommended to preset the accessory controls in preparation for the
next remote start. Settings for the blower motor (fan), front and rear, as well as heated seats (if
equipped) should not be left on
HIGH
. It is recommended to leave the settings on
LOW
or
MEDIUM
instead.
Windshield Wipers, Radio, and Headlights
Certain vehicles require the radio and/or windshield wiper and/or headlight circuits to become
energized while running under remote start. When leaving the vehicle you must ensure that the
windshield wiper and headlight switches are

of vehicles could cause them to remain
ON
even after remote starter shut down, resulting in a dead
battery.
