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
command signal from
the remote control
transmitter.
Therefore, never
operate the system
in an enclosed area
or partially
enclosed area
without ventilation
(such as a garage).
When parking in an
enclosed or
partially 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
ADJACENT 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.
Remote starters
on manual
transmission
vehicles operate
differently than
those with automatic
transmission because
you must leave your
car in neutral. You
must read this
Owner’s Guide to
familiarize yourself
with the proper
procedures regarding
manual transmission
remote starters. If
you have any
questions, ask your
installer or contact
Directed at
1-800-753-0600.
Before remote
starting a manual
transmission
vehicle, be sure to:
• Leave the
vehicle in
neutral and be
sure no one is
standing in
front or
behind the
vehicle.
• Only remote
start on a flat
surface
• Have the parking
brake fully engaged
Warning! It is the
responsibility of
the owner to ensure
the
parking/emergency
brake properly
functions. Failure
to do so can result
in personal injury
or property damage.
We recommend the
owner have the
parking/emergency
brake system
inspected and
adjusted by a
qualified automotive
shop biannually.
Use of this product
in a manner contrary
to its intended mode
of operation 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 accordance
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.
After the remote
start module has
been installed,
contact your
authorized dealer to
have him or her test
the remote start
module by performing
the Safety Check
outlined in the
product installation
guide. If the
vehicle starts when
performing the
Neutral Safety
Shutdown Circuit
test, the remote
start unit has not
been properly
installed. The
remote start module
must be removed or
the installer must
properly reinstall
the remote start
system so that the
vehicle does not
start in gear. All
installations must
be performed by an
authorized Directed
dealer.
OPERATION OF THE
REMOTE START MODULE
IF THE VEHICLE
STARTS IN GEAR IS
CONTRARY TO ITS
INTENDED MODE OF
OPERATION. OPERATING
THE REMOTE START
SYSTEM UNDER THESE
CONDITIONS MAY
RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE OR PERSONAL
INJURY. YOU MUST
IMMEDIATELY CEASE
THE USE OF THE UNIT
AND SEEK THE
ASSISTANCE OF AN
AUTHORIZED Directed
DEALER TO REPAIR OR
DISCONNECT THE

Out of range notification
If a command is
issued from the remote, but the
remote is beyond the range of the
vehicle to receive the command, the
remote will respond with an out-of
range notification. If this occurs,
the transmit indicator on the remote
flashes rapidly, the
key
LED turns on, and the remote emits
the error tone sounds.
Since conditions
will vary in different areas (i.e.:
Weather, RF interference, etc) range
may be affected and require you to
be closer to the vehicle for
successful transmission.
Back to top
➤
System maintenance
The system
requires no specific maintenance.
Your remotes are powered by small
coin cell lightweight 3-volt lithium
batteries that last approximately
one year under normal use. The 2-way
remote uses two CR2016 cell
batteries and the 1-way remote uses
one CR2032 cell battery. When the
battery begins to weaken, the
operating range is reduced.
Back to top
➤
Low battery indicator
When the
batteries are low on the 2-way
remote it emits two groups of beeps,
the
LED flashes, and the system
emits an additional honk when
unlocking to let you know its time
to change the battery. When the
battery is low on the 1-way remote,
the remote responds the same, but
without the LED flash.
Note:
The Lock/Unlock confirmations should
be programmed On, and the optional
horn honk installed, for the system
to emit any additional honks during
unlocking. Ask your authorized
dealer if you have any questions.
