                            THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING AN ASTROSTART REMOTE CAR STARTER!    Like you, Astroflex is concerned with the environment.    This is why we suggest using the two-minute runtime   when you remote start your vehicle to warm up engine fluids.  We take this opportunity to remind you to properly defrost your windows   and remove all the snow from your vehicle before driving on public roads.    Rolling igloos are extremely dangerous!  We wish you an excellent journey with your remote engine starter!

                          SECURITY SYSTEM  This section applies to an AstroStart safety system (optional) and should not be mistaken for the vehicle’s original system.  On such a system, the remote can only warn of an alarm status (Alarm Link) (optional connections).  The bi-directional remote control is in constant communication with your vehicle.   Even if you do not ask for status, it will inform you by means of icons on your remote that a door has been opened, that the  engine has stopped, etc.  PROTECTION ZONES  Y

                          OPERATION  Your alarm system has three different operating modes: active, semi-passive rearming and passive rearming depending  on initial programming. See the relevant paragraph for the mode your system was configured in during installation.  Following a rearming, the last remote that transmitted a command to the system will receive confirmation of the rearming.  ACTIVE  In active mode, the alarm must be armed and disarmed using the remote (see Table of Commands on page 6).   Alarm is armed a

                          GLOSSARY  SIREN  Siren has six different sounds, i.e., it chirps repeatedly and has six different melodies (only supplied with optional alarm kit).  It chirps intermittently (short repeated chirps) during a pre-alarm and continuously during an alarm condition.  It can confirm ARM and DISARM commands with short chirps; see table in CONFIRMATION section.   This function is programmable as ACTIVE or INACTIVE during installation.
