Idle Mode
Convenience feature: Idle mode allows you to keep the engine running and the doors
locked while you stop, for example, at a convenience store or for a short delivery.
This feature allows you to let the remote starter take over control of the vehicle (i.e. no key in the
ignition switch) while the engine is running. For example, if you stop for a delivery or at a conveni-
ence store, lock your vehicle and leave it running for the length of a run cycle while you are away.
To leave the vehicle in idle mode:
1. With the engine running, press the LOCK or UNLOCK button (to unlock the doors) or the
START/STOP button on the remote control until the parking lights come on.
2. Remove the key and exit the vehicle. The engine will go on running.
3. Lock the doors if needed.
The engine will go on running until the user re-enters the vehicle or until the expiration of the
engine run time.
Caution!!! Do not leave children or pets unattended in a vehicle standing in Idle Mode.
Turbo Mode
If turbo mode is configured at installation, it will allow a turbocharger to idle down after the user
leaves the vehicle: the unit will take over the vehicle and keep it running for 60 seconds (or until it
is shut down by remote control), then shut down the engine.
Proceed as follows to set the system to Turbo Mode:
1. With the engine already running, press the LOCK button on the transmitter until the
parking lights come ON.
2. Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch.
The engine will go on running.
3. Exit the vehicle and close the door.
4. Press the TRUNK button to lock the doors.
The engine will shut down after 60 seconds of Turbo Mode.
