Warning! Safety First
The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:
Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only
be performed by an authorized Directed dealer.
When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a com-
mand signal from the remote control/transmitter. Therefore, never oper-
ate the system in an enclosed area or partially enclosed area without
ventilation (such as a garage). When parking in an enclosed or par-
tially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced, the remote
start system must be disabled using the installed toggle switch. It is the
user’s sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from
children all remote control/transmitters to assure that the system does
not unintentionally remote start the vehicle. THE USER MUST INSTALL A
CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA
ADJACENT TO THE VEHICLE. ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJA-
CENT LIVING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY ENCLOSED
VEHICLE STORAGE AREA MUST AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED.
These precautions are the sole responsibility of the user.
Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of op-
eration may result in property damage, personal injury, or death. (1)
Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never
remotely start the vehicle with the keys in the ignition. The user must
also have the neutral safety feature of the vehicle periodically checked,
wherein the vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear. This
testing should be performed by an authorized Directed dealer in accor-
dance with the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide.
If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately
and consult with the authorized Directed dealer to fix the problem.
