To return the system to its normal operating mode, turn the ignition key to
the ON or RUN position and press the
transmitter 3-times again. The horn will honk one (1) time to indicate that the remote
start system is out of Service/Valet mode. The ignition key may now be turned OFF.
Important Note: When taking your vehicle in for service, it is recommended that
you inform the service personell that your vehicle is equipped with a remote start
system.

Safety Features

Power Window / Moonroof Disable (if equipped)
On certain model vehicles, each time the remote control start feature is activated, all
power windows and the moonroof will be disabled while the vehicle is running via
remote start. The windows and moonroof will resume normal operation after the
remote start is shut down, or the vehicle is being used with the key.

Automatic Door Locking

Each time the remote control start feature is activated, the power door locks will be
activated prior to the vehicle starting. The doors can be unlocked at any time via the
PowerCode remote control.

Starting with Doors Open

For safety reasons, all vehicles doors must be shut when attempting a remote start.
If any door is left open, the system will alert you by honking the horn 3-times when
attempting a remote start, then abort the process. Once the door is shut, the system
can be remote started normally.

Trouble Shooting

Failed Attempt to Remote Start

When attempting a remote start of your vehicle, the system has several safety
checks that it performs. If any of these inputs are present that should not be, the
system will respond back to you with several horn "honks" to help you identify
which input is present. These "honks" will occur after initiating a start sequence
with the transmitter, the system will turn on the ignition, but then respond back with
several horn "honks" and abort the starting process.
When this occurs, count the number of "honks" and refer to the information below to
correct the situation preventing a remote start.
