Avital 4000 Remote Starter User Manual


 
To Remote Start the Engine:
1. Press the remote control START button for 1-2 seconds, 10-15 minutes
before you enter the vehicle (this will allow the climate control time to
heat or cool the vehicle.) The parking lights will flash 2 times, the engine
will start and the parking lights will remain on as a visual indication that
the engine is running. AviStart will automatically lock the doors when the
engine is remote started. If you have a diesel engine, the AviStart will be
programmed to start 15 seconds after the parking lights flash 2 times. This
will allow time for the glow plugs to heat up.
2. If the engine does not remote start, the AviStart system will attempt to start
the engine two additional times.
3. If the vehicle is left unattended, the engine will run for 20 minutes and then
shut off automatically. You can also program the system to run the engine for
30 minutes. (See the "Programming Table for System Features" on page 11.)
To Operate the Vehicle While Remote Started:
1. Press the remote control UNLOCK button for 1-2 seconds. The doors will
unlock.
2. Enter the vehicle (do not touch the brake pedal), turn the ignition key to the
"ON" position and then press the brake pedal. Pressing the brake pedal will
shut off the remote start and parking lights but the engine will remain
running.
3. You can now drive the vehicle.
To Shut Off Remote Start:
At any time while the engine is remote started, you can shut the engine off
with the remote control by pressing the remote control START button for 1-2
seconds. The engine and parking lights will shut off.
