Active or Passive Arming
The Starter Kill can be configured either to Passive Mode (so as to arm automatically) or Active
Mode (so as to require user intervention for arming). By default, your Remote Car Starter is
configured to Passive Mode. In Passive Mode, the Starter Kill will automatically arm 60 seconds
after the last door is closed. The Remote Car Starter will not arm if a door is left open, or if you re-
open a door within the 60-second delay.

Important note: When the Remote Car Starter re-arms automatically, you can disarm the
When the Remote Car Starter by simply pressing the

UNLOCK

button.

The Starter Kill and the Anti-grind Feature
With this added security feature, the system will prevent your vehicle from starting with the ignition
key when the Starter Kill is armed. If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Starter Kill
option, one will not be able to start your vehicle with the key unless the system has been unlocked
and disarmed first, or put into Valet Mode.

Note: If the Starter Kill is installed, your vehicle will benefit from a protection against starter
motor damage that could occur after remote-starting the engine should the user, by force of
habit, turn the ignition key to the

CRANK

position.

Flashing LED
The user may decide to turn on or off LED flashing at any moment. To do so, simultaneously press
the

TRUNK

and

LOCK

buttons on the transmitter:

x Flashing LED

: the L.E.D. will flash at all times (either under active arming or under passive

arming) to indicate that the Starter Kill is active.

x Active Arming: the LED will flash normally.
x Passive Arming: the LED will flash at a faster rate during the countdown preceding the

activation of the Starter Kill. Once the Remote Car Starter is armed, the LED will flash at a
slower rate.

x In Valet Mode: the LED will remain lit without flashing.

x Flashing LED

OFF

: the LED will not flash even when the Remote Car Starter is armed (either

under active or passive arming). Nevertheless, if the Remote Car Starter enters Valet Mode, the
LED will still remain lit without flashing as long as the ignition is off.

Safe Start
If this feature is enabled, the user must press the

START

button 2 times within 3 seconds to remote-

start the vehicle. This will eliminate accidental remote starts, e.g. when children are playing with the
transmitter.
If Swap Start Mode is selected, to remote-start your vehicle press

LOCK

and

UNLOCK

simultaneously. The

AUX 2

output can be activated by pressing the

START

button.

Home Valet

If this feature is installed, the user will have the possibility to remotely set the vehicle to a no-
remote-start mode. See Home Valet section, earlier in this Guide, for full instructions.

Ignition-controlled Door Locks
This is an added security feature. If your Remote Car Starter was installed with the Ignition-
Controlled Door Locks option, the doors will automatically be locked as soon as the ignition key is
turned to the

IGNITION ON (RUN)

position while the brakes are pressed. When the key is turned to the

OFF

position, the doors will automatically be unlocked.
