AstroStart 4204U - Manual (Page 3)

1
THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING AN ASTROSTART REMOTE CAR STARTER!
Like you, Astroflex is concerned with the environment.
This is why we suggest using the two-minute runtime
when you remote start your vehicle to warm up engine fluids.
We take this opportunity to remind you to properly defrost your windows
and remove all the snow from your vehicle before driving on public roads.
Rolling igloos are extremely dangerous!
We wish you an excellent journey with your remote engine starter!
U SER GUIDE FOR 2205U, 4204U AND 5204U REMOTE ENGINE STARTER .
These models are Bi-directional remote engine start systems. This means that they can communicate both ways and
therefore return an acknowledgment to the transmitter and/or communicate the status of the vehicle.
Model 5204U includes an integrated safety system. Not only does it allow to start the vehicle from a distance, it can indicate
the status of accesses to the vehicle and/or intrusion attempts. A second remote (unidirectional) is also supplied with this
model.
An optional alarm kit (PN 310-120-503) can be added to model 2205U. If this is the case, functions inherent to the alarm
system described in this manual will be attributed to it.
The functions relative to the safety system described in this manual apply only to models 5204U and 2205U to which an
alarm kit has been added.
Both models offer a keyless entry feature allowing the user to operate the door locks as well as access to the trunk of the
vehicle. These features are optional and may require additional material and/or wiring during installation.
