INTRODUCTION
This Remote Starter with Alarm and Keyless Entry System has been designed to be
installed on fuel-injected vehicles with an automatic transmission ONLY.
n Never install this remote starter on a manual transmission vehicle.
n This system must be installed and wired through a safety switch so it will not
start in any forward or reverse gear.
n Some automatic transmission vehicles mainly older GM vehicles with a purple
starter wire have a mechanical-type park safety switch instead of electrical safety
switch. The mechanical type does not interrupt the starter circuit when the
transmission is in any gear and does not offer the 100% level of safety required for
remote starting purposes. Therefore, our system should never be installed on any
vehicle that uses a mechanical type park safety switch.
n Once you install this system, you must verify that the vehicle will not start in any
forward or reverse gear, regardless of the type of vehicle.
n Read the operation manual for operating.
n Do not install any component near the brake, gas pedal or steering linkage.
n Some vehicles have a factory installed transponder immobilizer system that can
severely complicate the installation. There is a possibility that this system cannot be
installed on some immobilizer-equipped vehicles.
n Most vehicles have an SRS air bag system. Use extreme care and do not probe
any wires of the SRS system.
n Disconnect the car battery before beginning work on the vehicle.
n Check behind panels before drilling any holes. Ensure that no wiring harness or
other components are located behind the panels that would otherwise be damaged.
n Do not use conventional crimp lock, bullet on any wiring. Poor wiring, i.e. taped
joints will possibly introduce unreliability into the alarm system and may result in
false alarms or incorrect operation. We suggest soldering all connection points.
n Install the wiring neatly under carpets or behind trim to prevent possible damage
to wires.
