If the units cannot contact each
other, the display shows the symbol
“crossed out car” and shows data
from the last time RC was in contact
with VU.
SMARTSTART ™
FUNCTIONS
SmartStart™ consists of two units – The hand-held remote control (RC) and vehi-
cle unit (VU). All communication between the units is initiated by RC. In addition to
the key pad lock and “Back light”, all of the settings and data are stored in the VU.
This means that the RC only listens for responses from the vehicle when the RC
itself initiates a communication. Such communication is initiated on the following
occasions.
• TheRCwakesfrominactivity,eitherwhentherightbuttonispushdownin
normal Sleep Mode or by the right button being push down twice in the course
of 1 second if the key pad lock is activated (see Power saving)
• AparameterthatappliestotheVUhasbeenchanged(e.g.PickupTime)
Each time the RC and VU communicate, a complete data set is sent to the RC
(based on which user is active). VU
RC
DISPLAY
The display is a grey scale full-graphic LCD, with a resolution of
80x64 (BxH). All text is presented as black and white (maximum

The bottom line in the display shows which functions the buttons
have at the time.
