REMOTE ENGINE STARTING
REMOTE ENGINE STARTING - UNSUCCESSFUL START
In the event that the engine does not start on the first attempt, the system shuts down for a few seconds, then
attempts to restart the engine a 2
nd
and 3
rd
time. For hard starting engines, the unit will allow a starter crank time
of up to 10 seconds maximum. This should provide ample cranking time for difficult starts, but is limited to 13
seconds to help prevent damage to the starter from over cranking.
1) If engine starts on 2
nd
or 3
rd
attempt, see steps 4 & 5 above of "Successful Start".
2) If Third attempt fails to start engine, the system will turn off and doors will remain locked. NO FURTHER
ATTEMPTS WILL BE MADE AUTOMATICALLY
TURNING OFF A REMOTE STARTED ENGINE:
1) Engine is running in Remote Start (Parking lights ON).
2) Press and release the remote start button.
3) Engine & parking lights OFF, Doors re-lock/re-arm.
ENTERING YOUR REMOTE STARTED VEHICLE:

* NEW * REMOTE START RUN TIME RESET:
You can now reset the engine-run timer to allow for more running time after remote start has already occurred
using the remote control. After a successful remote start, press both the Lock & Unlock buttons together for at
least 2 seconds. The parking lights will flash 3 times and internal engine timer will reset back to zero minutes.
IDLE DOWN MODE:
This mode allows the unit to take over operation of the parked vehicle while the ignition key is removed and you
exit the vehicle. The vehicle is put into a remote running condition before you exit and it will remain running for the
programmed run time or until you come back.
Examples:
• You pull up to a convenience store for a quick stop, "Idle Down" mode keeps engine running when you exit the vehicle,
(with keys in hand) remote lock doors or arm alarm. When you return, unlock, turn ignition ON and drive away.
