Using Your System ➢ Unlocking Only after the vehicle is remotely started via the remote control, press and release the remote control button for 1 second to unlock the vehicle’s doors. The parking lights will flash and the horn will honk twice to confirm unlock. Note: Horn honk is an optional feature. ➢ Car Finder Press and hold the remote control button for 3 seconds to activate the car finder function (parking lights flash 5 times slowly). The remote start must not be activated for Car Finder to work.
➢ Ignition Controlled Door Locks If power door locks have been connected to your system, the vehicle's doors will lock three seconds after the ignition has been turned On and unlock when the ignition is turned Off. Important: In order for the ignition controlled door locks to work the feature must be programmed On. If the ignition is turned on when the vehicle is remote started the doors will not lock until the remote start shuts off.
➢ 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 vehicle 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.
While the vehicle is running during remote start operation, the system will monitor the vehicle and will automatically shut down the engine if the system receives any of the following shut-down inputs: • • • • • Brake pedal is pressed. Hood is opened. Shutdown toggle switch is put into the ON position. Pre-programmed run time has elapsed. Remote control button is pressed and held for 3 seconds.
➢ Starter Anti-Grind Circuitry Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind circuitry prevents the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned to the start position. This prevents damage to the starter motor if the key is turned to the start position during remote start operation. Note: Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote start system is operating the motor and the optional relay is installed.
Rapid Resume Logic This Directed Electronics system will store its current state to non-volatile memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will recall the stored state from memory. This means if the unit is in Locked Mode and the battery is disconnected for any reason, such as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will still be in Locked Mode. This applies to all states of the system. © 2009 Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.
