Introduction Thank you for purchasing a Firstech system for your vehicle. Please take a minute to review this entire manual. Note that this manual applies to the 2 Way 4 Button G15 LED FMX Remotes whether you purchased the ALARM IT, START IT, or MAX IT system. This manual also supports the 1 Way Remote that is included with your RF Kit. There are certain features listed in this manual that may not be available for your system.
Quick Reference Valet Mode When servicing or loaning your vehicle to others, the system should be placed in Valet Mode. Valet Mode prevents the system from remote starting and disables all alarm functions. IMPORTANT: While in Valet mode the remote will still control power lock and unlock systems. The parking lights will not flash. The system can be put into valet one of three ways: 1.
Half second Unlocks doors and/or disarms alarm. Twice 2.5 seconds Resets the run time or turbo timer Three Half second Aux 1. Triggers the auxiliary 1 output (most commonly used for rear defrost or window roll-down). Once 2.5 seconds Trunk release. Triggers the trunk release output and opens the vehicle’s trunk. Twice Half second Aux 2. Triggers the auxiliary 2 output (most commonly used for rear defrost or window roll-down). Once 2.5 seconds Activates the remote start.
Remote LED Functions Your remote will communicate to and from your vehicle while in range. The unique icon LED design will display LED’s indicating lock/unlock status, remote start confirmation, remaining run time and much more.
2.5 seconds no Option programming menu 2 - Installers Only. Half second no Activates passive arming (vehicle will arm/lock 30 seconds after the vehicle is disarmed) Half second yes Activates timer start mode. Timer start mode has multiple programmable settings: duration settings, temperature settings and self start settings. Half second yes Activates the built in Turbo Timer function. Additional installation is required when using this feature on automatic transmission vehicles. 2.
The system can be configured to passively lock and arm the vehicle. Put the system in passive by tapping buttons simultaneously for a half second. The remote will beep once and the LED’s will illuminate to indicate the system is in passive lock and arming mode. Repeat this procedure to turn Passive Mode off. While in passive mode, the system will lock and arm the alarm 30 seconds after the last door is closed.
STEP 3: Exit the vehicle and close the door. The vehicle’s doors will lock/arm and then engine will shut down. If the vehicle’s engine does not shut off, your door trigger may not be functioning properly. Discontinue use of the remote start feature and take your vehicle to a local authorized Firstech dealer for service. When the vehicle shuts off, your system is in reservation mode and is ready to safely remote start. IMPORTANT: By default, the system will lock/arm the vehicle upon setting reservation mode.
Upon lock/arm and unlock/disarm, you can eliminate vehicle’s audible confirmation by muting the siren. Normally, the siren will chirp once to indicate the system is locked/armed and twice to indicate the system is unlocked/disarmed. To mute the siren, tap the Lock and Unlock buttons simultaneously for a half second. IMPORTANT: Your system must be programmed by your installer before this is available. Even when the siren is muted, it will still sound if the alarm is triggered.
STEP 1: Unlock/disarm your system using the remote. STEP 2: Press and hold the button on your antenna for 10 seconds. The front LED will stay solid red for 3 seconds then turn off. STEP 3: Release the button after 10 seconds and the LED turns on either green or red. Tap the button once. The LED will change to green or red. Red means that the flashing LED is off. If you tap the antenna button once and it turns green, the flashing LED is on.
RPS Touch and RPS (Remote Paging Sensor) The RPS is an optional feature. The car call/RPS feature uses a small sensor that is mounted on the inside of your windshield. RPS Touch (Remote Paging Sensor) The new RPS touch has multiple features including: remote paging, 4 digit pin unlock/disarm, and arm/lock. All features are operated with a simple touch of the sensor. Please have your installer program the RPS Touch controller settings.
STEP 1: Disarm/unlock the alarm (remote must be programmed first) and choose a 4 digit code. You can not have zeros. STEP 2: Turn ignition key to the “on” position and leave the driver’s door open. STEP 3: Knock on the windshield in front of the RPS a total of 5 times (each time you knock the LED on the RPS will flash RED). The LED will begin to flash rapidly in BLUE with successful completion of this step.
Cold/Hot Start Mode Cold/hot start mode works in conjunction with timer start mode (see above) and the temperature sensor. It allows you to configure your timer start feature to check the vehicle’s temperature prior to starting. All of these options require programming from your local dealer. Anti Jacking Mode Your system has a mode that requires you to keep your remote separate from your key chain. This feature also requires additional labor. Please consult your installer for more details.
Programming Remotes on Push to Start (PTS) Vehicles Most Push to Start vehicles do not have a key that you can turn between the On and Acc positions. This makes programming remotes difficult. We have a different set of steps for programming remotes. STEP 1: Press the PTS button to turn the vehicle to the ‘On’ position. Do not start the car. STEP 2: Within 5 seconds, push the PTS button again to turn the vehicle ‘Off.’ STEP 3: Within 5 seconds, push the PTS button to turn the ignition ‘On.
Remote Start Shutdown Error Codes If the remote start sequence has been completed and the vehicle shuts down, the vehicle’s parking lights will flash 4 times, pause then flash again with the error code. Tap the Start on 2 Way remotes to initiate the shutdown error codes. On 1 Way remotes, hold the Trunk and Start buttons together for 2.5 seconds.
