REMOTE STARTING THE VEHICLE
This unit will not start the vehicle if any one of the following situations exist:
The vehicle's hood lid is opened.
The gear shift selector is not in Park.
The brake pedal is depressed.
 The safety control switch is in the Off position.
1. To start the vehicle, press and release the Key/Trunk button two times within
2 seconds. The vehicle will start and remain running for the pre-programmed 5, 10, 15,
20 minute run cycle. As a visual indication, the parking lights will flash or remain on
depending on the setting by your installation center.
2. When you arrive at the vehicle, turn the ignition key to the ON position (not the spring
loaded start position), then step on the brake pedal to disengage the remote starter. The
vehicle will continue to run, but now on its own power.
NOTE: The engine will stop running before the pre-programmed run cycle has expired if
you perform any one of the following functions:
- Press and release Key/Trunk button on the keychain transmitter two times within
2 seconds.
- Depress the brake pedal.
- Open the vehicle's hood.
- Place the unit in the safety control disabled mode.
PUSH-BUTTON LED RECEIVER VALET/OVERRIDE/SAFETY CONTROL SWITCH
The Push-Button LED switch located in the receiver allows you to temporarily disable the
remote starting function of the system. This is recommended whenever the vehicle is
being serviced.
To place the system in the service mode:
1. With the system disarmed/unlocked, and the ignition switch off, Press and Hold the
Push-Button, found on the windsheild receiver, in.
2. Turn the ignition switch on, off, on, off, on, off.
3. The LED begins to flash two short flashes followed by one long flashes and
continues this pattern until returned to normal mode of operation.
This puts the unit into the R/S Override mode indicating that the remote start is in the
service mode and will not start from RF or any other input Posse or otherwise.
To Exit R/S Override Mode:
1. With the system disarmed, Press and Hold the Push-Button, found on the windsheild
receiver, in.
2. Turn the ignition switch on, off, on, off, on, off.
3. The LED turns off, indicating that the R/S unit is fully functional one again.
PROGRAMMED TRANSMITTER NOTIFICATION (PTN)
Every time after Disarm, when the ignition key is turned on, the unit's LED will report the
number of transmitters programmed into the system. This safety feature will alert you if
an unauthorized transmitter has been programmed into your vehicle's security system
without your knowledge. Typically from the factory, there will be 2 flashes and a pause,
repeated 3 times, indicating that two transmitters are programmed into the system. If
you note additional flashes, an additional transmitter may have been added without your
knowledge or authorization. If you notice a change in the transmitter LED report pattern,
you can correct this by looking up how to erase and reprogram your transmitters found
in the transmitter programming guide. This reprogram operation will erase all unautho-
rized or unwanted transmitters.
