Autostart AS-2775 Remote Starter User Manual


 
P. 24 Installation Guide
If the vehicle has a manual transmission, Idle Mode can be activated through the same routine
as that used for Ready Mode (see “Ready Mode Option” in this Guide); at the last step, the
TRUNK button is pressed instead of the other buttons.
Please note that the horn will honk once and that the OEM-style alarm will be armed if the
Idle Mode option is enabled.
Note: If the pre-programmed run-time expires or if the user shuts down the engine by remote
control, the vehicle will enter Ready Mode.
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.
If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, proceed as follows to set the system to Turbo
Mode:
1) With the engine running, make sure to release the brake pedal and press the LOCK, UNLOCK
or START button on the transmitter until the parking lights come ON.
2) Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch.
The engine will continue running.
3) Exit the vehicle and close all doors, hood and trunk.
4) Press the TRUNK button; this will lock the doors, arm the OEM-style alarm (if
configured|) and confirm that the vehicle is in Turbo Mode.
5) The engine will shut down after 60 seconds.
If the vehicle has a manual transmission, follow all steps of the Ready Mode routine (see
“Ready Mode Option” in this Guide) to activate Turbo Mode. At the last step, press either:
1) LOCK to lock the doors and have the engine shut down after 60 seconds;
The parking lights will flash 3 times and remain lit.
The OEM-style alarm and starter kill (if configured) will be armed.
2) UNLOCK to unlock the doors and have the engine shut down after 60 seconds;
The parking lights will flash 3 times and remain lit.
3) STOP to shut down the engine without affecting the doors.
Note: The vehicle will enter Ready Mode once the engine run time expires.
Cold Weather Mode
If the vehicle has a manual transmission, Ready mode should be set before entering Cold
Weather mode. When Cold Weather Mode is active, the engine starts every 2 hours and runs for 3
minutes (or for 8 or 20 minutes with diesel engines). Cold Weather Mode automatically ends after
24 hours (or 12 starts).
To enter Cold Weather Mode:
Press and hold the
START button for at least 3 seconds
The parking lights will flash for 2 seconds, pause, then flash three (3) times.
To exit Cold Weather Mode, do any one of the following actions:
Open the hood.
Start the engine by remote.
Turn the ignition key to the
IGNITION ON (RUN) position.
Press and hold the START button until the parking lights come ON for 2 seconds, pause,
then flash once.
