AdvancedFeatures:InstallationprogrammableOptions
The Remote Car Starter was designed with flexibility and OEM integration in mind. With its
programmable options, this unit can single-handedly control nearly any electrical system in your
vehicle.
Caution: The programming of your system should be left to a professional. Changing any
one of the settings may affect the operation of your Remote Car Starter. Please note that the
following programmable options may require additional parts and labor.
IgnitioncontrolledDoorLocks
This is an added security feature. If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Ignition-
Controlled Door Locks option, the doors will automatically be locked as soon as the ignition key is
turned to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position while the brakes are pressed. The remote car starter will
also lock any door that was unlocked and opened (then closed) the next time the break pedal is
pressed. When the key is turned to the
OFF position, the doors will automatically be unlocked.
SecureLock
(Disabled by default.) Before your vehicle can be remote-started, the factory security system must
first be disarmed. The Secure Lock feature may be required on certain vehicle models with factory
security systems that automatically unlock the doors when the security system is disarmed.
To keep your vehicle protected when the factory security system is disarmed for a remote start,
Secure Lock will relock your doors as soon as the vehicle is started. Once the engine is shut down
by remote or after its runtime has expired, Secure Lock will also rearm your factory security system
and relock the doors.
SafeStart
Safe start enabled: If this feature is enabled, the user must press the button twice
within 3 seconds to remote-start the vehicle. This will eliminate accidental remote
starts, e.g. when children are playing with the transmitter.
Swap start: If this feature is enabled, press
and simultaneously to remote
start the vehicle. The AUX 2 output can be activated by pressing the
button.
EngineRunTime
On a gas engine, the Remote Car Starter can be programmed to run the engine for 3, 15, or
25 minutes (15 minutes by default). On a diesel engine, the Remote Car Starter can be
programmed to run the engine for 8, 20, or 30 minutes (20 minutes by default).
TurboMode
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 your 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
,
or 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.
