➤ Before beginning the installation
•
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 multiplexed
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 display a diagnostic code through the warning lights
after the lights lose power. Disconnecting the battery causes the anti-theft
code to be erased, which can then require a trip to the dealer.
•
If using an external LED or Valet Switch, check with the customer about
where to locate the switch.
•
To avoid accidental battery drainage; turn off the interior lights or remove
the dome light fuse.
•
Roll down a window to avoid being locked out of the car.
➤ After the installation
•
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 of the Owner's Guide.
•
Review and complete the Safety Check section of this guide prior to the
vehicle reassembly.
