Testing
Before putting back the vehicle together, it is recommended to check that the system operates properly. The
following testing procedures should be used to verify proper installation and operation of the system. Before
testing, make sure that all connections are soldered and that the unit is plugged in.
Remote-Starting Your Vehicle
Setting Your Vehicle Into Ready Mode
If the vehicle has a manual transmission
you must read the following indications. The unit must first be set to
Ready Mode in order to start the vehicle by remote. If the unit is not set to Ready Mode, it cannot remote start
the vehicle.
Please note that Ready Mode can be enabled by the remote or the handbrake, depending on the option that
was selected. Therefore, you must follow the appropriate procedure between the two described below in order
to set the vehicle into Ready Mode.
Once the system is set to Ready Mode, the vehicle can be remote started and stopped at any time. The system
will exit Ready Mode if a door, the hood or the trunk is opened, if the brake pedal is pressed, if the parking
brake is disengaged or if the ignition key is turned to the IGNITION ON (RUN) position.
To set the system to Ready Mode:
If Ready Mode is enabled by remote If Ready Mode is enabled by handbrake
1. Ensure that all the doors, hood and trunk are closed. Make sure that the gear selector is in the neutral position.
