Starter Kill Option
With this added security feature, the system will prevent your vehicle from starting with the Ignition
Key when the Starter Kill is armed. If your Autostart was installed with the Starter Kill option, you
will not be able to start your vehicle with the Key unless the system has been unlocked first.
Passive or Active Arming
The Starter Kill option can be programmed to be active (will not arm automatically) or passive (will
arm automatically). In Passive Mode, the system can be configured to arm automatically either
after 1 minute or after 3 minutes. If installed, the Starter Kill is configured by default to a 1-minute
Passive Arming Mode: the countdown starts when the Ignition is turned off.
x To disarm the Starter Kill option in Active or Passive Mode, press the UNLOCK button on the
transmitter. The parking lights will flash twice. (If Remote Door Locks were installed, this will
also unlock the doors.) In Passive Mode, the system will automatically re-arm 1 or 3 minutes
after the doors were unlocked unless the ignition key has meanwhile been inserted in the
ignition switch.
x To arm the Starter Kill option in Active or Passive Mode, press and hold the LOCK button on the
transmitter. The parking lights will flash once. (If Remote Door Locks were installed, this will
also lock the doors). In Passive Mode, the system will automatically arm 1 or 3 minutes after
the engine has been turned off.
Important note: When the system re-arms
automatically, you can disarm the system again by
pressing the UNLOCK button.
Ignition-controlled Door Locks Option
This is an added security feature. If your system was installed with the Ignition-controlled Door
Locks option, the doors will automatically be locked as soon as the brake pedal is pressed after the
ignition key has been turned to the
IGNITION ON (RUN) position. When the ignition key is turned to the
OFF position, the doors will automatically be unlocked.
Ignition Relock
Whenever the Ignition-controlled Door Locks are enabled and the ignition key is in the
IGNITION ON
(RUN) position, when the brake pedal is pressed the system will automatically LOCK any door that
has been unlocked, opened and closed.
Secure Lock Option
Before it can remote-start your vehicle, the module 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.
Remote Trunk Release Option
If your system was installed with the Remote Trunk Release, you can open your trunk by pressing
the
TRUNK button for 3 sec. on the remote transmitter. Note that the Trunk Release option will only
operate when ignition is
OFF or if the vehicle is running under remote control.
Engine Run Time
If you have a gas engine, your Unit can be programmed to run the engine for 4, 15, or 25 minutes
(15 minutes by default). If you have a diesel engine, the module can be programmed to run the
engine for 9, 20, or 30 minutes (20 minutes by default).
