Setting Your Vehicle Into Ready Mode
If your vehicle has a manual transmission you must read the following indications. In order to start the
vehicle by remote, the unit must first be set to Ready Mode. If the unit is not set to Ready Mode, it

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

the parking brake is disengaged or if the ignition key is turned to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position.
