This indicates that something is drawing excess power, your vehicle was parked for an extended period, or your battery health is degrading.
Other Remote Start Features (cont’d) MANUAL TRANSMISSION STARTING Remote starting with a manual transmission requires that you ensure the gear selector is in NEUTRAL. There are 2 available methods. METHOD #1 - 3D MOTION SENSOR: This system is equipped with a 3D motion sensor built into the antenna. Whenever remote start is activated, this sensor is monitored for vehicle movement. If the vehicle moves just a few inches when the engine is cranking, it will instantly turn the engine off.
Security System Features (cont’d) WHEN THE SYSTEM TRIGGERS It will sound the siren/horn and flash the parking lights for 30 seconds (programmable). At this point you will also be notified on the controller as to which zone is violated (while in range). When disarming after a trigger event, the siren/horn will chirp 4 times and the parking lights will flash 4 times instead of the standard 2 times.
Using The Valet Button (cont’d) VALET MODE Valet mode completely disables all security & remote start functions. Keyless entry is still operable. To enter valet mode, perform the following steps: STEP 1 - Disarm the system by remote or by performing an emergency override. STEP 2 - Press and hold the valet switch for 2 seconds. The system will chirp once and the status light will turn on. EXITING VALET MODE - Press and release the valet switch once.

Anti-Carjacking Protection The system is equipped with two separate Anti-Carjacking protection features (ignition, open door, or both). All are programmable, and must be turned on to operate. Once activated, the user has 60 seconds to cancel the Anti-Carjacking protection process (described below). If Anti-Carjacking is not cancelled, 53 seconds after being activated the siren will begin to chirp for 7 seconds to alert the user that the system is about to enter into an alarm condition.
Programming Controllers/Transmitters Standard Programming: Using this method to program additional or replacement transmitters does not turn on or otherwise affect the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert (UTA) feature. Before you begin, have all transmitters which are to operate the system at hand and make sure the correct vehicle profile (see page 12) is selected on the controller(s). Step 1 Then, turn the ignition “on”. Step 2 Within 5 seconds of Step 1, press the Valet Switch 5 times.
