Safety features

This system has several important safety features to ensure proper operation of

the motor and prevent accidental damage to the engine or its components.

Optional starter anti-grind circuitry

Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind circuitry prevents

the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned to the start position. This

prevents damage to the starter motor if the key is turned to the start position

during remote start operation.

Note: Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote start system is operating

the motor and the optional Failsafe® Starter Kill relay is installed.

Disabling the remote start system

This feature allows the remote start unit to be temporarily disabled to prevent

the vehicle from being remote started accidentally. This feature is useful when

the vehicle is being serviced or stored in an enclosed area.

To disable the remote start, move the shutdown toggle switch to the Off posi-

tion. Check with your installer for the location of the shutdown switch.

Remote Start Safe-lock

Remote start safe-lock makes sure the doors are locked when Remote Start is

activated and after it is deactivated, even if they are unlocked when remote

start is activated.

Door locks may require additional parts and labor.
