Vehicle Presets
Heater
When leaving the vehicle it is recommended to preset the accessory controls in preparation for the
next remote start. Settings for the blower motor (fan), front and rear, should not be left on HIGH. It
is recommended to leave the settings on LOW or MEDIUM instead.
Windshield Wipers, Radio & Headlights
Certain vehicles require the radio and / or windshield wipers and / or headlights circuits to become
energized while running under remote start. When leaving the vehicle you must ensure that the
windshield wipers and headlights switches are OFF. Leaving the headlights switch ON in certain
types of vehicles could cause them to remain ON even after remote starter shutdown, resulting in a
dead battery.
Remote­Starting Your Vehicle
Setting Your Vehicle into Ready Mode
If your vehicle has a manual transmission you must read the following indications. The unit must
first be set to Ready Mode in order to start the vehicle by remote. If the unit is not set to Ready
Mode, it cannot remote start the vehicle.
Please note that Ready Mode can be enabled by the remote or the handbrake, depending on the
option that was selected by your installer. Therefore, you must follow the appropriate procedure
between the two described below in order to set your vehicle into Ready Mode.
Once the system is set to Ready Mode, the vehicle can be remote started and stopped at any time.
The system will exit Ready Mode if a door, the hood or the trunk is opened, if the brake pedal is
pressed, if the parking brake is disengaged or if the ignition key is turned to the IGNITION ON
(RUN) position.
