REMOTE ENGINE CONTROL
REMOTE ENGINE STARTING - UNSUCCESSFUL START
In the event that the engine does not start on the first attempt, the system shuts down for a few seconds, then
attempts to restart the engine a 2
nd
and 3
rd
time. For hard starting engines, the unit will allow a starter crank time of
up to 4 seconds maximum. This should provide ample cranking time for difficult starts, but is limited to 4 seconds to
help prevent damage to the starter from over cranking.
1) If engine starts on 2
nd
or 3
rd
attempt, see steps 3 & 4 of "Successful Start" on page 4.
2) If Third attempt fails to start engine, the system will turn off and doors will remain locked. NO FURTHER
ATTEMPTS WILL BE MADE AUTOMATICALLY

REMOTE START RUN TIME RESET:
The Remote Start Run Time is adjustable from 3 to 30 minutes (option # 20). Some local cities have a run time
limit for unattended vehicle. You can now reset the engine-run timer to allow for more running time after remote
start has already occurred using the remote control. After a successful remote start, press both the Lock &
Unlock buttons together for at least 2 seconds (requires 3 or 4 button remote). The parking lights will flash 3
times and internal engine timer will reset back to zero minutes.
