RIGGER INPUT
Your remote starter is equipped with a negative trigger (pulse)
input.
This input can be connected to another remote control device
or to an AstroStart timer output (optional).
If this input is connected, consult this device's manual or ask
your technician which command controls the start/stop
function.
The start/stop commands received on this input are ignored
while the engine is running on a remote start.
All Start/Stop functions controlled by this input behave in the
same way as functions controlled by remote.
CONTINUOUS MODE
(Option 1 only)
The “Continuous Mode“ function allows to remove the key from the ignition while leaving the engine
running. This convenient feature allows you to leave the vehicle for short periods of time while the climate
controls remain on.
To access the “Continuous Mode“, carry out the “Start“ command while the engine is idling. See “START”
command on page 5.
Parking lights, engine and preset accessories will remain on for the duration of the programmed runtime.

If you return to your vehicle before runtime has elapsed, just turn the key to the “ON” position and depress
