Remote Start - Directed Electronics Automate 552 Owner's Manual

Remote Start

This feature allows you to remotely start and run your vehicle for
a programmable period of time. This makes it possible to warm up
the engine, as well as adjust the interior temperature of the vehi-
cle with the climate control system. If interior heating or cooling
is desired, the climate controls must be preset, and the fan blower
must be set to the desired level prior to remote starting the
vehicle.
IMPORTANT! (1) Never remote start your vehicle when the keys are in
the ignition, except when performing Valet
start the vehicle if it is not in either PARK or NEUTRAL.
To remote start the vehicle:
1. Simultaneously press
one second.
2. The parking lights will flash to confirm that the vehicle will
attempt to start.
3. Release the
lights flash. (In gasoline vehicles, the engine will start 4 sec-
onds after the parking lights flash. In diesel vehicles, the
engine will start when the WAIT-TO-START indicator on the
vehicle's dash goes out.)
3. Once the vehicle has started, it will run for the pre-program-
med period of time (either 12, 24, or 60 minutes - see
Programming Options section of this guide) or until a shut-
down input is triggered.
