Extended Run Time
While the vehicle is running under a remote start, pressing and holding the START/STOP button
for more than 3 seconds will reset the run time counter to zero and restart the run time cycle from
the beginning. The parking lights will flash three times and the horn (if configured) will honk once.
The extended run time procedure can only be carried out once per remote start.
To stop the vehicle, at any moment, simply press the
START/STOP button.
Example: If your remote car starter is programmed for a run time of 4 minutes and your vehicle
has been running for 3 minutes already, pressing the START/STOP button will reset the
counter to zero and allow the engine to run for another cycle (in this case, 4 minutes).
Multi-car Operation
This option allows the owner of two vehicles, both equipped with the same remote starter model, to
control both systems with a single remote control. To control the second vehicle:
Note: Your remote control must be configured for second car operation by the installer.

Troubleshooting Poor Transmitting Range
Many factors may affect the operating range of the transmitter. Some of these are:
The condition of the battery in the transmitter.
The operating environment (for example: downtown radio-frequency noise, airports, cellular phone
towers…)
Metal: any type of metal will affect operating range. This includes the metal in the car.
The shape of the vehicle can affect range as well; vans in general have an especially poor range.
The shape of the roof and A-pillars brings about considerable radio-frequency deflection (in this
case the signal from the remote control). As a result, the direction in which the vehicle is facing in
relation to the remote control can affect the range. Straight on – standing in front of the vehicle –
generally gives you the greatest range; the second best performance is from the back. Using the
remote control from either side of the vehicle will usually give the lowest range.
The range will be significantly lower in a crowded parking lot than in open space.
Always hold the transmitter high, approximately at shoulder height. Holding the transmitter against
your chin will also increase your range: your head acts as an antenna.
The operating range will be somewhat lower on vehicles equipped with an aftermarket or factory
alarm.
