Government Regulations
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with the Industry Canada Radio Standards Specification RSS 210. Its use is
authorized only on a no-interference, no-protection basis; in other words, this device must not be
used if it is determined that it causes harmful interferences to services authorized by IC. In
addition, the user of this device must accept any radio interface that may be received, even if this
interference could affect the operation of the device.
Warning! Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate this device.

P.4User Guide
Using the Remote Control
Your remote system is equipped with a 5-button multi-channel remote control. The functions of the
transmitter are as follows:
LOCK: Locks the doors.
UNLOCK: Unlocks the
doors.
TRUNK: Opens the
TRUNK. START/STOP: Remote
starts or stops the engine.
PANIC: Triggers the Panic
mode if pressed for more than
3 seconds.
N.B.: Pressing TRUNK and LOCK buttons simultaneously will activate the AUX 1 output.
Pressing TRUNK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously will activate the AUX 2 output.
Vehicle Presets (only with remote starter)
Heater
When leaving the vehicle it is recommended to preset the accessory controls in preparation for the
next remote start. Settings for the blower motor (fan), front and rear, should not be left on HIGH. It
is recommended to leave the settings on LOW or MEDIUM instead.
Windshield Wipers, Radio & Headlights
Certain vehicles require the radio and / or windshield wipers and / or headlights circuits to become
energized while running under remote start. When leaving the vehicle you must ensure that the
windshield wipers and headlights switches are OFF. Leaving the headlights switch ON in certain
types of vehicles could cause them to remain ON even after remote starter shutdown, resulting in a
dead battery.

Remote-Starting your Vehicle (only with
remote starter)
Remote-Starting/Stopping
Press the button for approximately 1 second. The parking lights will turn ON to inform you that
the Remote Car Starter has received your signal. Approximately 5 seconds later, the engine will
start. The parking lights will remain ON during the pre-programmed run time of the engine.
Press the button once more for approximately 1 second to stop the engine.
Driving Off
With the vehicle running under remote control, press the button to disarm and unlock the
doors. Enter the vehicle and do the following:
•Turn the ignition key to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position. (Do not turn the key to the CRANK
position while the engine is running.)
•Press the brake pedal to disengage the remote starter unit.
You are now ready to drive off.
Remote System Features
Remote Door Locks
If your system was installed with the Remote Door Locks option, you will have the convenience of
remote keyless entry.
To LOCK your doors:
1. Press and hold the button for approx. 1 sec.
2. The parking lights will flash to confirm that the doors have been locked
To UNLOCK your doors:
1. Press and hold the button for approx. 1 sec.
2. The parking lights will flash to confirm that the doors have been unlocked.
Remote Trunk Release
If your system was installed with the Remote Trunk Release option, you can open your trunk by
pressing the button for 3 seconds on the remote transmitter.
Idle Mode (only with remote starter)
Convenience feature (compatible bypass module only):Idle Mode allows you to keep the
engine running and the doors locked while you stop, for example, at a convenience store or
for a short delivery.
This feature allows you to let the remote system take over control of the vehicle (i.e. no Key in the
Ignition Switch) while the engine is running.

P.6User Guide
If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, proceed as follows to set the system to Idle
Mode:
1. With the engine running, make sure to release the brake pedal and press
the button on the transmitter until the parking lights come ON.
2. Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch.
The engine will continue running.
3. Exit the vehicle and close all doors, hood and trunk.
4. Press the button to lock the doors and to arm the OEM style alarm.
Panic Mode
In an emergency situation, you can activate panic mode by pressing and holding the button for
more than 3 seconds, until the horn starts honking. If the vehicle is running remotely, the engine
will shutdown automatically before setting off the horn. You can stop the horn by pressing:
(This will unlock your doors and deactivate panic mode).
Note: Panic Mode will automatically shut down after 30 sec.
AUX 1 & AUX 2
Note: These Auxiliary outputs can be used for many different applications. Refer to your
installer for details.
Sliding door(s):
These commands allow you to control most of the vehicle’s accessories depending on what was
connected during the installation (headlights, defroster, sliding door, etc.). For more information,
check with your technician.
Troubleshooting Poor Transmission Range
Many factors may affect the operating range of the transmitter. Some of these are:
•The condition of the battery in the transmitter.
•The operating environment (for example: downtown radio-frequency noise, airports, cellular
phone towers…).
•Metal: any type of metal will affect operating range. This includes the vehicle itself.
•The shape of the vehicle can affect range as well (vans in general have less range).
•The shape of the roof and A-pillars brings about considerable radio-frequency deflection (in
this case, the signal from the remote control). As a result, the direction in which the vehicle is
facing in relation to the remote control can affect the range. Straight on (standing in front of
the vehicle) generally gives you the greatest range; the second best performance is from the
back. Using the remote control from either side of the vehicle will usually give the lowest
range.
•The range will be significantly lower in a crowded parking lot than in open space.
•Always hold the transmitter high, approximately at shoulder height.
•The operating range will be somewhat lower on vehicles equipped with an aftermarket or
factory alarm.
