remote starter will activate. There are two different ways to place the system into
Reservation Mode. The activation type of Reservation Mode is determined when the
system is installed. The default setting is Auto Reservation Mode.

Step 1 - While the vehicle is running, place into neutral and apply the park brake.
Step 2 - Press and release the brake pedal twice. The park lights will flash twice,
the horn (optional) will honk twice and the doors will unlock (optional).
Step 3 - Turn the ignition key off and the vehicle will continue running.
Step 4 - Exit the vehicle and close all the doors. The vehicle will then shut off *.

(See page 4 for Remote Starter Functions.)
If Reservation Mode is not set, the remote starter will not activate. When the start
Button is pressed the park lights will flash 4 times. 4 flashes is the diagnostic code
for “Not in Reservation Mode”
Note: Reservation Mode will reset if the doors of the vehicle are opened. To re-enter
the vehicle without canceling the Reservation Mode (forgot something..) The
vehicle must first be remote started. While the vehicle is running the door may
be opened, when done in the vehicle, close the door and hold the button
until the remote starter shuts off.
* If the vehicle has dome light delay, the vehicle may stay running until the dome
light turns off. This is normally no longer than 30 seconds.
