REMOTE START OPERATION
IDLE-DOWN (Continued):
Examples of Idle Down uses:
You pull up to a convenience store for a quick stop. The "Idle Down" mode keeps engine running when you exit
the vehicle (with keys in hand) and arm the alarm. When you return, unlock/disarm alarm, turn ignition ON and
drive away. (No stopping and starting of engine)
On Turbo vehicles, most Car manufacturers recommended that the driver leave the car at idle for a short time
after driving before turning the car off allowing the turbo cool down. The convenience of the Idle down feature
allows the driver to use the Remote Start system in a similar way as a turbo timer. The Driver may exit the
vehicle while running, lock the vehicle by remote and turn off the engine from a distance with the remote control.
With engine running, press the remote start button on either remote. The remote start system will turn ON. Turn
Off the Ignition and remove key while engine will remains running. Be careful not to touch the brake pedal. Exit
your vehicle and arm/lock the system. The Engine will remain running for programmed run time, until you return, or
it can be turned off at any time through the remote start button.
COLD SELF-START MODE: (Programmable)
The vehicle can be programmed to start every 1 or 2 hours automatically during extreme weather conditions. DO
NOT leave vehicle in a closed garage with this feature activated! (Unit starts every 1 hour by default). Use
program option #19 to change interval time if needed.
1. With Ignition OFF, simultaneously press the brake pedal, the valet/program button, and the remote start
button for 2 seconds.
2. The parking lights will flash 4 times for confirmation.
3. From this point on, as long as you do not arm, disarm, or turn the ignition ON, the vehicle will start by itself
every hour and run for the programmed 12 or 24 minutes. Vehicle will self-start a maximum of 12 times.
After that, you will need to repeat step #1.
TO CANCEL THE COLD SELF-START MODE: Arm, Disarm, or Turn the Ignition on. When canceling this
mode, the 2-Way remote will be paged with the “OFF” engine shut down message.
HOOD OPEN & BRAKE PEDAL SAFETY CIRCUITRY
Both the hood pin and brake switch will prevent the engine from being remote started. Both circuits will also cause
a remote started engine to shut down if activated while running. This helps eliminate the risk of injury to someone
working under the hood or tampering of the vehicle. If a Remote start is requested with the hood/brake active, the
lights will flash twice and the unit will not attempt a start.
