POST-INSTALLATION AND SECURITY TESTS

When installation is complete, check all safety devices.

Make sure that the engine does not start or that it stops when:

 disabling switch is in "OFF" position;

 hood is opened;

 engine speed exceeds 3000 RPM; (if programmed in Stage 1 - level 12)

 brakes are applied.

Also check that all functions/devices operate normally during a remote start.

Pay attention to the following points:

 vehicle charging system;

 heating and air-conditioning system;

 door-lock functions (remote control);

 run time (programming);

 starter does not grind when engine starts;

 all options (defogger, trunk release, etc.);

 remote control range;

 LED on main unit.

For manual transmission vehicles, in addition to the standard safety checks, make sure that

opening ANY door breaks the safety sequence.

Proceed as follows:

1. Execute the safety sequence as described in the User Manual.

2. Remote start and stop the engine to confirm that the sequence is valid.

3. Open and close one door only.

4. Try to remote start engine again to confirm that opening that door broke the sequence.

5. Engine MUST NOT START. If it does, it means the manual interface cannot detect the opening of the door.

Check the door circuit connections then repeat test at step 1.

6. Repeat steps 1 through 5, making sure you open A DIFFERENT DOOR in step 3, until ALL THE DOORS

have been checked, INCLUDING THE HATCHBACK.

7. Repeat steps 1 through 5, but this time by releasing the parking brake in step 3.

Note: If the rear seats fold down, the trunk should be considered as a door. You will have to add a trunk detection

switch. See "Connecting the Door Switches and Motion Detector" in the Manual Interface instruction.

Part no. RS-MI.

THE INSTALLATION IS NOT SAFE IF

OPENING ANY DOOR DOES NOT BREAK THE

SAFETY SEQUENCE THAT NEUTRALIZES THE START.

THERE IS A RISK THAT THE GEARSHIFT LEVER CAN BE LEFT OR

PLACED IN GEAR WITHOUT THE SYSTEM BEING ABLE TO DETECT IT.

THIS MEANS THAT THE SYSTEM COULD EXECUTE A REMOTE START WHILE IN GEAR.
