Always turn off the main switch when not using your remote starter for extended periods.

• 
Have your engine tuned regularly to ensure optimum performance of your remote starter. 
• 
Make sure that the windshield wipers and the headlights are turned off before leaving vehicle. 
• 
Regularly check safety features that stop engine (see SAFETY CHECKS on page 18.) 
• 
Make sure you comply with all local regulations, which may prohibit leaving your engine running when vehicle is 
unattended in a public place. 
• 
To ensure continued safe operation of your remote starter, ask your AstroStart dealer to periodically check 
and/or tune the remote starting system. 
• 
Always advise service personnel that your vehicle is equipped with a remote starter. 
• 
We strongly recommend that you have your remote starter checked annually. Contact a dealer in your area. 
• 
All users of the vehicle should be aware of the safety precautions and operation procedures. 
• 
Make sure that the warning sticker is present on the driver's window. 
SPECIFIC RULES FOR MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLES 
• 
Make sure that the parking brake is operational, i.e. it can prevents the vehicle from moving
• 
If the shift lever is accessible without having to open a door of the vehicle (for example, by entering via the 
liftgate or rear hatch) or in the case of a convertible vehicle, it is strongly recommended to have a motion 
detector (microwave) installed with the system. This device prevents the engine from starting should any activity 
be detected near the gearshift. 
SAFETY SEQUENCE FOR MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLES 
Your remote starter was designed to force you to perform a series of actions that will ensure that the gearshift lever is in 
neutral position when you exit the vehicle. 
This series of actions is called a "Safety sequence" and is aimed at preventing any remote start in situations where remote 
starting the engine would not be safe. 
Should the hatchback or any door be opened at any time, the intrusion will be detected and the safety sequence will be 
cancelled by the system, thus preventing a remote start. In such cases, the sequence must be repeated to allow for an 
eventual remote start. 
The system offers two execution modes for the sequence. These options must be set at time of installation. The first mode is 
initiated by the parking brake and the other by the remote control. 
The safety sequence must be performed as follows.
