Installation Points To Remember - Clifford RSX3.5 Installation Manual

■ 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 Electronics dealer. O O P P E E R R A A T T I I O O N N O O F F T T H H E E R R E E M M O O T T E E S S T T A A R R T T M M O O D D U U L L E E I I F F T T H H E E V V E E H H I I C C L L E E S S T T A A R R T T S S I I N N

Installing it in a standard transmission vehicle is dangerous and is contrary to its intended use.

■ Please read this entire installation guide before beginning the installation. The installation of this remote start
system requires interfacing with many of the vehicle's systems. Many new vehicles use low-voltage or multi-
plexed systems that can be damaged by low resistance testing devices, such as test lights and logic probes
(computer safe test lights). Test all circuits with a high quality digital multi-meter before making connections.
■ Do not disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft-coded radio. If equipped with an air bag, avoid
disconnecting the battery if possible. Many airbag systems will display a diagnostic code through their
warning lights after they lose power. Disconnecting the battery requires this code to be erased, which can
require a trip to the dealer.
■ Check with the customer on status LED location.
■ Remove the domelight fuse. This prevents accidentally draining the battery.
■ Roll down a window to avoid being locked out of the car.

■ Test all functions. The "Using Your System" section of the Owner's Guide is very helpful when testing.
■ When testing, don't forget that this system is equipped with Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry (NPC). NPC can
bypass trigger zones, making them appear to stop working. See the Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry section.
■ Review and complete the Safety Check section of this guide prior to the vehicle reassembly.
