• Flashing LED ON: the L.E.D. will flash at all times (either under active arming or under passive
arming) to indicate that the Starter Kill is active.
• Active Arming: the LED will flash normally.
• Passive Arming: the LED will flash at a faster rate during the countdown preceding the
activation of the Starter Kill. Once the Remote Car Starter
is armed, the LED will flash at a slower rate.
• In Valet Mode: the LED will remain lit without flashing.
• Flashing LED OFF: the LED will not flash even when the Remote Car Starter is armed (either
under active or passive arming). Nevertheless, if the Remote Car Starter enters Valet Mode, the
LED will still remain lit without flashing as long as the ignition is off.
Safe Start
If this feature is enabled, the user must press the
START button 2 times within 3 seconds to remote-
start the vehicle. This will eliminate accidental remote starts, e.g. when children are playing with the
transmitter.
If Swap Start Mode is selected, to remote-start your vehicle press
LOCK and UNLOCK
simultaneously. The
AUX 2 output can be activated by pressing the START button.
Ignition-controlled Door Locks
This is an added security feature. If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Ignition-
Controlled Door Locks option, the doors will automatically be locked as soon as the ignition key is
turned to the
IGNITION ON (RUN) position while the brakes are pressed. When the key is turned to the
OFF position, the doors will automatically be unlocked.
Ignition Re-lock
On Remote Car Starters of this series, when Ignition-controlled Door Locks are enabled and the
ignition key is in the
IGNITION ON (RUN) position, should any door be unlocked and opened, all doors
will be relocked next time the brake pedal is pressed.
Secure Lock
Before it can remote-start your vehicle, the Remote Car Starter must first disarm the factory
security system. The Secure Lock feature may be required on certain vehicle models with factory
security systems that automatically unlock the doors when the security system is disarmed.
To keep your vehicle protected when the factory security system is disarmed for a remote start,
Secure Lock will relock your doors as soon as the vehicle has started. Once the engine run cycle
ends, Secure Lock will rearm your factory security system.
Turbo Mode
When left in Turbo Mode, the Remote Car Starter will keep the engine running for 60 seconds
before shutting it down. This is to allow a turbocharger to idle down after the user leaves the
vehicle. See Turbo Mode section earlier in this Guide.
Remote Trunk Release
If your system was installed with the Remote Trunk Release option, you can open your trunk by
pressing the
TRUNK button for 3 seconds on the remote transmitter or by pressing the TRUNK button
TWICE within 3 seconds.
Engine Run Time
If you have a gas engine, your Remote Car Starter can be programmed to run the engine for 4, 15,
or 25 minutes (15 minutes by default). If you have a diesel engine, the Remote Car Starter can be
programmed to run the engine for 9, 20, or 30 minutes (20 minutes default).
