CONTINUOUS MODE
The Continuous Mode function lets you remove the key from ignition while leaving the engine running. This
convenient feature allows you to leave vehicle for short periods of time while climate controls remain on.
To access Continuous Mode, send Start command while engine is idling. See "STARTING THE ENGINE"
on page 5.
Parking lights, engine and preset accessories will remain on for the duration of the programmed runtime
(see " Setting the runtime " on page 7).
Remove key, exit vehicle and lock doors. All safety devices will remain active.
If you return to your vehicle before runtime has elapsed, just turn the key to the "ON" position and depress
brake pedal.

HAT STOPS THE ENGINE
For your safety, engine will not start or it will stop if:
Ignition key is in "RUN" position (prevents start);
Remote control sends a stop command.
Hood is open.
Brakes are applied.
Alarm is in infraction condition.
Engine is over-revving (if engine over-revving monitoring is active).
Main switch is OFF.

AIN SWITCH
Main switch is usually mounted under dashboard.
When it is placed in the OFF position, it cancels all start
related functions but does not disable other commands,
which remain active (alarm, door locking, etc).
STOP
When engine is kept running by Remote Starter, you can stop it with this command (lights: 1).
The stop command also ends panic mode and alarm condition.
