General System Functions
In order to remote start a manual transmission vehicle, the system must first be set in Reservation Mode. Reservation Mode must be set each and
every time you want to remote start a manual transmission vehicle. The purpose of Reservation Mode is to leave the transmission in neutral before
exiting the vehicle.
IMPORANT
The transmission must be left in the neutral position. The vehicles windows must be rolled up.
The vehicles door pins must be in working order. Do not set reservation mode or remote start with people in the vehicle.
Do not install this remote start on a manual transmission vehicle that has a convertible or removable top.
Activating Reservation Mode
STEP 1:While the vehicle is running, place the transmission in neutral, set the emergency / parking brake, and remove pressure from the foot brake.
STEP 2: Remove the key from the vehicle’s ignition. The vehicle’s engine should remain running even after the key has been removed. If the vehicle
does not remain running make sure your system is not in Valet mode and then contact your local authorized dealer for service.
STEP 3: Exit the vehicle and close the door. The vehicle’s engine should shut off within 10 seconds upon closing the last door. Most motors will shut
off instantly upon closing the last door. If the vehicle’s engine does not shut off, your door trigger may be functioning improperly. Do not use the
remote start feature and take your vehicle to a local authorized dealer for service.
IMPORTANT: By default, the system will lock/arm the vehicle upon setting reservation mode. Take care to not lock your keys inside the vehicle.

Reservation mode will be cancelled for the following reasons;
You did not activate the parking brake prior to turning off the ignition. You pressed the foot brake after the key was removed from the ignition.
You released the parking brake after the key was removed from the ignition.
You entered valet mode, opened the vehicles door, hood, trunk or set off the alarm.
