or extended by the installer.
If a remote start configuration issue prevents the engine from start-

Warning! Safety first
The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:
Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be
performed by an authorized Directed dealer.
When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal
from the remote control. Therefore, never operate the system in an enclosed area
or partially enclosed area without ventilation (such as a garage). When parking
in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced,
the remote start system must be disabled using the installed toggle switch. It
is the user’s sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from
children all remote control remote controls to assure that the system does not
unintentionally remote start the vehicle. THE USER MUST INSTALL A CARBON
MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA ADJACENT TO
THE VEHICLE. ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJACENT LIVING AREAS TO
THE ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE STORAGE AREA MUST
AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED. These precautions are the sole responsibility
of the user.
Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of operation may
result in property damage, personal injury, or death. (1) Never remotely start the
vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with
the keys in the ignition. The user must also have the neutral safety feature of the
vehicle periodically checked, wherein the vehicle must not remotely start while
the car is in gear. This testing should be performed by an authorized Directed
dealer in accordance with the Safety Check outlined in the product installation
guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately and
consult with the authorized Directed dealer to fix the problem.
After the remote start module has been installed, contact your authorized dealer
to have him or her test the remote start module by performing the Safety Check
outlined in the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts when performing

10 © 2012 Directed. All rights reserved.
the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit test, the remote start unit has not been
properly installed. The remote start module must be removed or the installer must
properly reinstall the remote start system so that the vehicle does not start in gear.
All installations must be performed by an authorized Directed dealer.
OPERATION OF THE REMOTE START MODULE IF THE VEHICLE STARTS IN
GEAR IS CONTRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF OPERATION. OPERAT-
ING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE CONDITIONS MAY RESULT
IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY
CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND SEEK THE ASSISTANCE OF AN AU-
THORIZED Directed DEALER TO REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED
REMOTE START MODULE. DIRECTED WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR
PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.
Manual Transmission Vehicles
Remote starters on manual transmission vehicles operate differently than
those with automatic transmission because you must leave your car in
neutral. You must read this Owner’s Guide to familiarize yourself with
the proper procedures regarding manual transmission remote starters. If
you have any questions, ask your authorized Directed dealer or contact
Directed at 1-800-753-0600.
Before remote starting a manual transmission vehicle, be sure to:
• Leave the vehicle in neutral and be sure no one is standing in front
or behind the vehicle.
• Only remote start on a flat surface
• Have the parking brake fully engaged
WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure the parking/
emergency brake properly functions. Failure to do so can result in per-
sonal injury, death or property damage. We recommend the owner
have the parking/emergency brake system inspected and adjusted by
a qualified automotive shop biannually.
