Other Remote Start Features
This feature will automatically start the engine if the vehicle battery drops below 11 volts or the
interior temperature drop to 15 (or 32) degrees fahrenheit. You must activate these features each time
you park your car to use them. To activate:
• Turntheignitionswitch“on”,then“off”(enginenotrunning),andwithin7secondspressthevalet
switch twice. If there is a 2 second delay without additional valet button presses, the antenna will
beep 2 times activating low voltage start mode.
• Toactivatelowtempstarting,enterlowvoltagestartmodeasdescribedabovebut,aftertheanten-
na beeps twice, press the valet switch 1 time (15 degrees) or 2 times (32 degrees) within 5 seconds.

NOTE: When low temp start mode is activated, low voltage start is also activated. These features will
operate once every two hours until the ignition key is turned “ON”.
PIT-STOP FEATURE
This feature allows you to leave your engine running for making quick errands. To use this feature,
have the engine running normally from the ignition switch and your foot off the brake pedal. Press the

LAST DOOR LOCKING/ARMING
 Thissystemcanbeconguredtoarmautomaticallywhenallthevehicle’sdoorsareclosed(see
programmable feature #2). When all of the doors are closed after driving the vehicle, it will start a
30secondcountdown(indicatedbyafastashingstatuslight).After30seconds,thesystemwill
lock/arm. During the 30 second arming delay, if a point of entry is opened, the countdown will pause
until all entry points are closed again. Turning ON the ignition key will cancel the last door arming
sequence until the key is turned off and the doors are all closed once again.
Security System Features
AUTOMATIC RE-LOCKING
This automatically re-locks the doors if the system is disarmed from the remote. (see programma-
ble feature #3). When unlocked by remote (the included remote OR your factory remote), the system
willstarta90secondcountdown(fastashingredstatuslight)tore-lockthesystem.Thisisusefulif
the controller accidentally disarms the system when it’s kept in a purse or pocket where other items
could potentially press the buttons.
Using The Valet Switch
EMERGENCY OVERRIDE
If you were to lose or break your controller, you’d need to perform an emergency override to disarm
the system. To do so, use the following steps:
STEP 1 - Enter the vehicle (the alarm may sound)
STEP 2 - Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position
STEP 3 - Press the valet switch (located in the window-mount antenna) once
STEP 4 - Turn the ignition “OFF”.
The valet switch is a push button built into the window mount antenna. It is used to perform emer-
gency override and system programming (see inside of back cover for programming).

The Status Light
The status lights, located in the window-mount antenna, provide a visual indication of the system’s
status via GREEN (remote start status) and RED (alarm status) lights.
SECURITY SYSTEM STATUS (RED LIGHT):
OFF: The system is unlocked and not performing any automatic functions.
FLASHING SLOW: The system is locked and monitoring all entry points.

grammed to the system. This protects you from potential thieves (valet, mechanic, installer, etc.) that
might add their own transmitter without your knowledge and accessing your vehicle and it’s contents
at a later time.
ZONE VIOLATION RECALL (RED LIGHT):
 Ifazoneisviolatedwhilethesystemislocked/armed,theREDstatuslightswillashanumberof
times to indicate exactly which zone(s), has been violated. It will store the last 2 violated circuits and
continuallyrepeattheashpatternuntilthesystemisdisarmed&theignitionkeyisturnedON.
