Directed has engineered this vehicle security system, the Failsafe
®
Starter Kill, and the VRS
®
feature to provide the best combina-
tion of personal safety and property protection available. When
properly installed, the system can never inadvertently stop your
vehicle in traffic or on railroad tracks while the vehicle is in oper-
ation. It is unlike other systems that shut down your engine
while it is running. This system is designed to perform starter in-
terrupt, or starter kill. The Failsafe
®
Starter Kill cannot shut
down an already-running engine – it can only prevent an engine
from starting in the first place.
arming the vrs
®
To arm the VRS
®
, turn the ignition to the ON position and press
the arm button on the 2-way remote for one second. The parking
lights will flash and the siren will chirp once. This can be done
before driving or while driving the vehicle. Once the system is
armed, it will initiate its triggered sequence (see below) if any
door is opened and closed. If you are forced from the vehicle, the
system will trigger as the door is opened and closed. This is how
the system works to combat intersection carjacking. To protect
against parking lot carjacking, arm the VRS
®
before leaving the
vehicle. The system will now trigger automatically the next time
you or anyone drives the vehicle. This helps to protect the vehicle
important! Any installation that allows this product to
shut down a vehicle's engine when it is running is con-
trary to the product’s design and intended usage, and
Directed hereby expressly disclaims any liability resulting
therefrom.
