CONVENIENCE AND SAFETY FEATURES
REMOTE TRUNK RELEASE OR DOMELIGHT ILLUMINATION (Option 9)
This system includes an output that can be programmed to remotely release a factory electronic trunk or illuminate
the interior light when you unlock your vehicle for lighted entry at night. If you have the optional trunk pop installed,
simply press and release the Trunk Button #3 on the transmitter to remotely open trunk. If your system is
programmed for Dome Light illumination, then it will work automatically lighting the dome light for 30 seconds when
you unlock your vehicle via the remote. The dome light will turn off after 30 seconds, or turning the key on
(whichever comes first). To eliminate the possibility of accidentally opening the trunk, there are (3) options for
button press selection. This option will allow you to change whether the Trunk release activates by a:
1. Double press (2 x ½ second presses).
2. Single ½ second press. *Default*
3. Press and Hold 2 seconds. This output stays on until trunk button is released.
VALET MODE
Before servicing your vehicle or handing the keys over to a Valet we recommend putting the unit into Valet Mode.
The Remote Start function WILL NOT operate when in Valet Mode.
1. To Activate Valet Mode Manually: Turn the ignition on and press the Valet button [about 5-6 seconds] until
the LED turns on solid. Repeat the process to exit VALET mode.
2. To Activate Valet Mode with the Remote (Selectable Option 27): Default = Press & Hold
Press both the Lock and Unlock Buttons and hold together for about 3-4 (or double press)
seconds until 3 chirps are heard (horn must be connected for chirps). Repeat this step to exit via the remote
transmitter. Lock / Unlock and AUX features will still operate in VALET Mode however Remote Start is
inhibited.
HOOD OPEN SAFETY (Requires hood pin switch)
This prevents remote starting engine when hood is open. It eliminates risk of injury to someone working under the
hood of the vehicle with a properly working hood pin installed. If Remote Start button is pressed with the hood open,
the parking lights will flash twice and the unit will not attempt a start. The system will abort Remote Start any time
the hood is opened. See Remote Start Diagnostics on page 19.
BRAKE PEDAL RESET:
Prevents remote starting or turns off a remote started vehicle when the brake pedal is pressed. This prevents
Unauthorized Driving of Vehicle. This circuit shuts the system down immediately when brake pedal is pressed. Turn
the ignition key to the ON position before the brake pedal is pressed.
