System equipped with an additional sensor
.
If your system is equipped with a sensor designed to monitor status of trunk (added at time of installation), parking lights will
flash three times to confirm command was received. When trunk is released, 3 chirps are emitted to warn that alarm will not
take into account the status of this zone or the shock sensor's zone for the next 5 minutes. If you do not release trunk within
10 seconds, the system will rearm trunk automatically.
The timer is reset each time the command is repeated, which allows a new 5-minute period to close the trunk lid.
The system will sound a chirp when trunk is closed to confirm it has been rearmed. If trunk is open for more than 5 minutes,
the system switches to alarm status.
AUTOMATIC LOCK/UNLOCK
Programmable as Active or Inactive during installation.
This function locks doors when ignition key is in ‘RUN’ position, engine is running and brakes are applied. Doors are
unlocked when key is turned from ‘RUN’ to ‘OFF’ or when Continuous Mode (Including Turbo Mode) is activated or when a
safety sequence is detected.
If Unlock function is set to unlock only driver's door on the first command, Automatic Unlock function will unlock driver's door
only. If dome light is connected to system, it comes on when an Automatic Unlock occurs.

OTHER COMMANDS
ANTITHEFT (CIRCUIT DISABLER)
Programmable as Active or Inactive during installation.
Your Remote Starter is equipped with an antitheft system. This system, when enabled, consists of an output that controls a
relay that cuts all circuits required to operate your vehicle (optional connection).
There are two types of antitheft systems.
‘PASSIVE ARMINGTYPE ANTITHEFT or
This type of antitheft system arms automatically when ignition key is turned from ‘RUN’ to ‘OFF’ and remains ‘OFF’ for one
minute. It can also be armed manually by sending a ‘Lock’ command (unless ignition key is in ‘RUN’ position).
DISARMING
Antitheft system is disarmed for one minute when you send an ‘Unlock’ command.
If ignition key is not turned to ‘RUN’ position within one minute, system automatically rearms, thus preventing an intruder
from starting your vehicle, even with ignition key. The indicator light (optional) blinks rapidly during rearming, and then
continuously when antitheft system is armed.
It can be connected so that horn sounds if an intruder tries to start your vehicle when antitheft is armed.
‘ACTIVETYPE ANTITHEFT or
This type of antitheft system is armed by sending a ‘Lock’ command (unless ignition key is in ‘RUN’ position) and is
disarmed by sending an ‘Unlock’ command. The indicator light (optional) blinks continuously when antitheft system is armed
(if the AstroStart security system is not armed) .
VALET MODE (ANTITHEFT)
The Antitheft function can be deactivated for the same reasons and in the same way as the Antitheft system. See ‘Valet
mode’ details on page 14.
PARKING LIGHTS STATUS
The system can have the button blink on the remote control to warn you that the vehicle’s lights have been on for more
than ten seconds after the engine was stopped (additional optional equipment required).
The message is sent again after 30 seconds and then every two minutes for as long as the lights remain on.
This function is only available on gas-powered vehicles.
