SAFETY SEQUENCE FOR MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLES Your remote starter was designed to force you to perform a series of actions that will ensure that the gearshift lever is in neutral position when you exit the vehicle. This series of actions is called a "safety sequence" and is aimed at preventing any remote start in situations where remote starting the engine would not be safe. -

AIN SWITCH Main switch is usually mounted under dashboard. It is a toggle ON/OFF switch that is used to cancel start functions. It does not disable other commands which remain active (alarm, lock/unlock commands, etc.). STOP Refer to the table of command on page 5 to know which button to press. This command only applies when engine is kept running by Remote Starter. -
Page 11: Security System (Optional)
SECURITY SYSTEM (OPTIONAL) The current section only applies to an AstroStart security system (added as an option) which must not be confused with the vehicle’s OEM system. PROTECTION ZONES Your security system can use up to six different monitoring devices simultaneously to protect your vehicle. - Page 12 If you disarm the system and do not open the door before the rearming delay expires, it rearms itself automatically. If vehicle is equipped with a factory security system and runtime expires during rearming cycle, factory security system is reactivated but not AstroStart security system because opening a door is simulated for factory system rearming.
- Page 13 The following table shows the effect that each zone has on the rearming cycle. Protection zone Hood Doors Additional sensor (trunk) Shock sensor Ignition Warning Applying brakes or ignition key in RUN position cancels rearming (until a door is opened, which causes rearming cycle to restart from the beginning).
