• Flashes if there is a connection with the base unit
• Goes dark when there is no connection with the base unit.
Red indicator:
• Flashes frequently if there is any notification
• Flashes occasionally when there is no connection

Remote and automatic engine start
The system allows for remote engine start using remote engine start command or automatic engine
start using preconfigured automatic engine start function. Remote start can be used to heat engine
and interior, charge battery or to cool the interior with air conditioning.
Remote and automatic start can only be used when the system is armed. If the car has manual
transmission, remote or automatic start will only occur if the program neutral procedure (reservation
mode) was followed when the car was arming. Remote and automatic engine start on automatic
transmission cars will only occur, if transmission selector lever was left in the“P” position.
When using remote and automatic engine start functions, make sure that the car is secured with
handbrake or some other means of fixaing the car on a parking position.
While system is in remote and automatic start mode, it keeps performing all security functions
of all of the security zones excluding shock sensor. To compensate, motion sensor sensitivity and

14 Security-service system Pandora Light
responsiveness will be increased. If any security zone will be triggered, the engine will be immediately
stopped and alarm mode will be entered. Herewith all engine blocking functions will be activated.
Program neutral procedure (reservation mode)
(for cars with manual transmission)
If you are planning to use remote and automatic engine start on cars with manual transmission,
before arming you will need to perform following actions:
1. While ignition is on and engine is running, fixate the car with the handbrake and put the gear
lever to the neutral position. Program neutral procedure will be switched on automatically (it depends
on the system settings) or press and hold button for 3 seconds to forced switch on this program.
2. Turn the key in the ignition lock to the OFF position (the engine should still be running) and
take it out of the lock.
3. Leave the car, close the doors.
4. Press button to arm the car and lock the doors. The engine operation icon will be
spinning on LCD remote and security mode status icon will be shown.
