AviStart 6500 Congratulations! You have just purchased the AviStart 6500, a remote engine starter and security system manufactured by Avital Technologies, Inc. You are about to experience the convenience and luxury of being able to start your vehicle engine from the comfort of your home, office, department store or other remote location. To fullly benefit from the capabilities of your AviStart system, we encourage you to read the Owner’s Manual thoroughly before using the system.
Stealth Coding Technology Stealth Coding technology offers the most advanced protection available against "code-grabbing" devices which thieves may use to record the digital code transmitted by your remote control. When you leave the area, thieves can then play back the code to unlock the doors and deactivate your system. Avital's remote controls with Stealth Coding randomly change the code every time you use them, and your system will not respond if any code is retransmitted.
Operating Your AviStart To Arm The System The alarm can be programmed for active or passive arming. Active arming means the alarm can only be armed by the remote control. Passive arming means the alarm will automatically arm itself. See the "Programming Table for System Features" on page 15. Active Arming Press the remote ARM/DISARM button for 1-2 seconds. The siren will chirp twice, the parking lights will flash twice, the doors will lock, the LED will flash slowly and the starter will be disabled.
Two-Stage Unlock Capability If the optional Two-Stage Unlock feature was installed, press the ARM/DISARM or SILENT button for 1-2 seconds and only the driver door will unlock. Within 3 seconds, press the ARM/DISARM or SILENT button again and the passenger doors will unlock (may require an optional relay). Remote Panic with Safety Locks In a threatening situation, you can activate Remote Panic with Safety Locks. When activated, the siren will sound and the parking lights will flash.
User-Programmable RPM Door Lock The system can be programmed to automatically lock the doors when the engine reaches the factory preset RPM level. (See the "Programming Table for System Features" on page 15). When you begin driving, your vehicle doors will automatically lock. When you turn the ignition key off, the doors will automatically unlock. NOTE: Ignition-Controlled Door Lock feature must be programmed OFF.
To Activate Remote-Controlled Valet 1. Press the remote control ARM/DISARM and START buttons at the same time for 1-2 seconds. 2. The parking lights will flash 4 times, and the LED will turn on solid red. To Deactivate Remote-Controlled Valet 1.

Zone2 ™ Impact Sensor The Zone2 Impact Sensor has two individual vibration/impact sensing zones. Zone #1: If a less threatening vibration or impact is detected, the siren will issue 2 warn-away chirps. A second violation will also issue 2 warn-away chirps. If within 45 seconds a third violation is detected, the sensor will automatically trigger the alarm. The siren will sound and the lights will flash.
User-Programmable Door Ajar Indication When you remotely arm the alarm system and a door is ajar (not closed), the siren will chirp 2 times, then chirp 3 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times. This feature provides audible and visual indication to prevent battery drain. (See "Programming Table for System Features" on page 15.) NOTE: If your vehicle has factory delayed lighting, this feature will be turned OFF.
Number of chirps and flashes Explanation 3 chirps, 3 flashes Disarmed and there was an intrusion attempt. 4 chirps, 4 flashes Armed and there is a trigger malfunction (automatically bypassed). 0 chirps, 1 flash Remote start attempt and a fault was detected. 0 chirps, 2 flashes Remote start attempt and all zones are OK. The vehicle will start. 2 three-second flashes or 1 three-second flash Remote automatic temperature-controlled starting. 2 = activation, 1 = deactivation.
Visual Fault Indication The AviStart has a built-in fault detection system that automatically scans all of the safety zones, prevents the system from remote starting and provides a visual indication if a fault is detected. The parking lights will flash 1 time if the hood is opened or if the brake pedal is depressed and will not allow the engine to start. If this occurs, bring your vehicle to your authorized Avital dealer for service.
To Operate the Vehicle While Remote Started: 1. If the alarm system is armed, press the remote ARM/DISARM button for 1-2 seconds. The alarm will disarm and the doors will unlock. 2. Enter the vehicle (do not touch the brake pedal), turn the ignition key to the "ON" position and then press the brake pedal. Pressing the brake pedal will shut off the remote start and parking lights but the engine will remain running. 3. You can now drive the vehicle.
To Deactivate: Press the remote control TRUNK and START buttons at the same time for 1-2 seconds. The parking lights will turn on for 3 seconds and then turn off. This will be your visual indication that you have deactivated the Temperature-Controlled Starting feature. NOTE: At any time, if the ignition key is turned on or the vehicle is remote started, the Temperature-Controlled Starting feature will deactivate.
User-Programmable Features All AviStart system and remote control programmable features are accomplished by turning the ignition key "ON" (or starting the engine) and flicking the valet switch on and off a preset number of times.
