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 area that does not have adequate ventilation.
The following precautions are the sole responsibility of the user; however, authorized Directed dealers should:
• Never use a test light or logic probe when installing this unit. Always use a multimeter.
• Never operate the system in an enclosed or partially enclosed area without ventilation (such as a ga-
rage).
• 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 prop-
erly handle and keep out of reach from children all remote controls to assure that the system does not
unintentionally remote start the vehicle.
• 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 PAR-
TIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE STORAGE AREA MUST REMAIN CLOSED AT ALL TIMES.
Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of operation may result in property damage,
personal injury, or death. Except when performing the Safety Check outlined in this installation guide, (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 is responsible for having the parking brake/emergency brake 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 this product
installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately and consult with the
user to fix the problem immediately.
After the remote start module has been installed, test the remote start module in accordance with the Safety
Check outlined in this installation guide. If the vehicle starts when performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown
Circuit test, the remote start unit has not been properly installed. The remote start module must be removed
or properly reinstalled 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 IN-
TENDED MODE OF OPERATION. OPERATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE CONDITIONS
MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT
AND REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE START MODULE. DIRECTED WILL NOT BE HELD
RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.
