If you hear threemore chirps after arming,maybe you need tore-check the doors tosee whether they
are properly closed.This chirp is calleddoor zone bypass notification.This notification isgiven out
when some door isnot closed properly orif your car hasa dome light delay. After thenotification, the
system will delay tomonitor the door zonefor an additional 20seconds or until thedome light turns off.
The system alsocan remind you ofarming the system ifyou forgot todo so. Thesystem will give out
three siren chirps withlight flashes 20 secondsafter you turn off the ignition keyand close all thedoors.
After hearing the audible reminder, you shouldpress button to armand lock.

2.Never start thevehicle if it isnot in eitherPARK orNEUTRAL position andnever forget to
activate the parking brakebefore remote start.
3.In gasoline vehicles, theengine will wait 6seconds to start afterthe parking lights flash.In diesel
vehicles, the engine willstart when theWAIT-TO-STARTindicator on thevehicle's dash goes out.
4.It is unsafe toremote start thevehicle in a garageor other enclosedarea. Breathing theexhaust
from the vehicleis hazardous to yourhealth.
How to DriveYour RemoteStarted Vehicle:
1) Press button 0.5sto unlock and disarmand open the door.
2) Insert the ignitionkey and turn itto the ON (notthe START) position in 30seconds.
3) Press the brakepedal.
Note: If the brakepedal is pressedbefore the keyis in the ONposition, the engine willshut down.
Remote shut down:
While the vehicleis running during remotestart operation, the systemwill monitor the vehicleand will
automatically shut down theengine if the systemreceives any of thefollowing shut-down inputs:
1)The brake pedalis pressed.
2)The hood isopened.
3)The pre-programmed runtime (15 or 25minutes) has elapsed.
4)Press button andbutton again.

6-pin Secondary Harnessfor Outputs(H2)
Pin 1: ORANGEWIRE: Armed Output (-) 500mA.The orange wiresupplies a ground outputwhile armed
to activate a relayfor starter defeat andanti-grind protection.
Pin 2: BLUEWIRE: Second unlock (passenger unlock)output(-) 200mAThis system is equippedwith a
dedicated passenger unlock outputallowing two stage doorlock operation. Whenconnected this wire,
disarming the system willunlock only the drivers door. Pressingthe disarm button againwill unlock all doors..
Pin 3: WHITE/BLACK WIRE:Auxiliary Channel 5Output (-) 200mA. Thiswire provides a (-)200mA
output whenever the transmitterbutton is pressed for2S. This outputcan be programmed toprovide the follo
wing types of outputs:
a.0.8-second timed: Outputthat will send aground pulse of 0.8second.
b.15-second timed: Outputthat will send aground continuous pulse for15 seconds.
c.Latched,reset with ignition:Output that will senda signal when theChannel 5 button (button ) is pressed and
will continue until thesame button (button )is pressed again. Itadditionally stops output wheneverthe ignition
is turned on.
Pin 4: PURPLE/BLACKWIRE: Auxiliary 4 Output (-)500mAfor windows rolling-up option.Connect to
a power window module.
Pin 5: BLACK/WHITEWIRE: Dome Light Output (-)500mA. Connect to thewire that activate thevehicle's
dome light, usually thedoor pin switch wire.Note: the dome lightoutput can usually connectto the same wire
used for the doortrigger input (see purpleand green door inputwire).
Note: This outputis only intended todrive a relay. It can notbe connected directlyto the dome light
circuit, as theoutput cannot support thecurrent draw ofone or morelight bulbs.
Never use thiswire to driveanything but a relay or alow-current input. Thetransistorized output
can only supply 200mAof current. Connectingdirectly to asolenoid, motor,or other high-current
device will cause itto fail.
Pin 6: RED/WHITEWIRE: VehicleTrunk Release Wire (-)500mA. Connect thiswire to the electronic
trunk opener. (Relaymay required).
8-pin 2510 Harnessfor Inputs andOutputs(H3)
Pin 1: GREEN/BLACKWIRE: Factory Disarm Output (-)500mA. This wireprovides a ground outputon
disarming and before remotestarting to disarm afactory security system. Connectto the wire thatrequires a
ground pulse to disarmthe factory security system.
Pin 2: GREEN/WHITEWIRE: Factory Rearm Output (-)500mA. This wiresupplies a ground outputon
remote start shutdown torearm a factory securitysystem. Connect to thewire that requires aground pulse to
rearm the factory securitysystem.
Pin 3: BLACKWIRE: Optional Sensor Input (-).Connectto an optional instantsensor such as trunkpin switch.

Pin 5: GREY/ BLACKWIRE:Diesel wait-to-start bulb input.(-) Connect this wireto the wire inthe vehicle that
sends the signal toturn on theWAIT-TO-STARTbulb in the dashboard.In most diesels, thewire is negative (ground
turns on the bulb)and the GRAY/BLACK wire can bedirectly connected to thewire in the vehicle.If the vehicle
uses a positive wire(12V to turnon the bulb), youmust set the propersignal polarity in theoptions list(Features #12).
Pin 6: BLACK/WHITEWIRE: (-)Neutral Safety Switch Input.Connect this wire tothe PARK/NEUTRALswitch
in the vehicle.This wire will testwith ground with thegear selector either inPARK orNEUTRAL. This willprevent
the vehicle from accidentallybeing started while ina drive gear.This input MUSTrest at ground inorder for the

also connect this wireto the Parking BrakeSwitch.
Pin 7: VIOLET/WHITEWIRE: Oil Sensorsignal(Default), High-VoltageSensing or Tachometer Input (Optional)Input wire.This input providesthe
module with information aboutthe engine's resolution perminute (RPMs). Connect tothe vehicle's tach wire.
Common locations for atachometer wire are theignition coil, instrument cluster, fuel injectors, orengine computers.
The correct wire showsbetween 1V to6V (AC) andfluctuates with the idleof the engine whentesting with a
multi-meter capable of testingAC voltage.
Note: This wirehas the same functionwith the High-Voltage sensing input, soit is a alternativesolution when
voltage sensing input doesnot supply satisfactory operation.If connect to theHigh-Voltage sensinginput,
you must coil this wire five loopsonto the High-Voltage from theengine distributor.

SYSTEM INSTALLATION
1.Due to the complexityof this system, installationmust only be performedby an authorized dealer.
2.Thoroughly read and becomefamiliar with the installationinstructions before beginning theinstallation.
3.Review system contents:
a.Main Control Unit
b.Siren
c.Communication unit withbuilt-in Shock Sensor andValetSwitch
d.Starter Kill Relay
e.Remote Starter Modulewith 5-pin Starter Harness.
f.Harness:
4.Verify vehicleis equipped with electronicfuel injection, and starts/idlesnormally before installation.
5.Determine if vehicle isequipped with a factorytheft deterrent system andobtain proper bypass module
if required.
6.Find a location tomount the hood pinswitch that will notinterfere with the openingof the hood, and
is not in aposition that can accumulatewater. Thehood pin is asafety device that mustbe installed to
avoid remote starting duringengine servicing.
7.Verify withthe owner, themounting locations for allvisible components, including theLED and Receiver.
8.Verify withthe owner, theoptional features of vehiclesecurity system and thefeatures that must be
programmed during installation.
9.Inspect and perform afunction test of allvehicle systems before andafter the installation.
10.Always use aVolt/ohmmeter for testing vehiclecircuits. Never use atest light.
11.Always look before drillingany holes or mountingself-tapping screws. Be surefuel lines and exterior
wiring looms are clearas they are oftenclose to the chassisand difficult tosee.
12.Protect all wires runningfrom the engine compartmentto the interior ofthe vehicle by coveringwith
electrical tape and splitloom tubing. Be sureto use a grommetwhen routing wires throughthe firewall.
13.Properly fuse any additionalaccessories such as startermodule, window module, doorlock actuators,
etc., Making sure topower them separate fromthe alarm Main Unit.This will ensurethe functionality of
the security system inthe event of anaccessory failure.
14.Remove all fuses toavoid running down thebattery during installation.
15.Roll down the driver'sside window to avoidlocking the ignition keysin the vehicle.
