Safety features
This system has several important safety features to ensure proper operation of
the motor and prevent accidental damage to the engine or its components.
➢
Starter anti-grind circuitry
Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind circuitry prevents
the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned to the start position. This
prevents damage to the starter motor if the key is turned to the start position during
remote start operation.
➢
Disabling the remote start system
This feature allows your system’s remote start unit to be temporarily disabled to
prevent the vehicle from being remote started accidentally. This feature is useful
if the vehicle is being serviced or stored in an enclosed area. To disable the
remote start, move the shutdown toggle switch to the OFF position. The switch
can be installed in a location of your choice. Check with your installer for recom-
mended locations.

Shut down inputs
This security system uses several inputs to shut down the remote start operation
of the motor or prevent remote start if certain inputs are active. The two most
important are hood and brake inputs. The hood input will prevent the motor from
starting, as well as shut it down, any time the hood is opened. The brake pedal
will shut down the motor at any time during remote start operation, as well as
preventing the remote start from activating while it is being pressed.
