PLEASE READ ENTIRE MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING

Congratulations on your purchase of the Ready Remote Car Starter. The Ready Remote Car Starter allows you to start your car by remote control from

the comfort of your home or office in order to cool it down in the summer or heat it up in the winter.

Ready Remote is for automatic transmission/fuel injected gasoline vehicles only. Please see pages 6 and 7 for important information on factory anti-theft

systems. Ready Remote is an extremely sophisticated system with multiple built-in safety and security features.

Features:

• Will not let the car be driven without the key in the ignition.

• Shuts itself off automatically after 10 or 15 minutes

(programmable) if you forget to come out to your car.

• Will shut off if the brake pedal is pushed, the hood is opened, or

the transmission is shifted out of park - unless the key is in the

ignition and in the “run” position.

• Is quality engineered and microprocessor controlled to

provide many years of reliable use.

• Allows you to control up to 4 vehicles with Ready Remote

Remote

Car Starters

• Comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

• Will start your car by remote control from up to 1,000 feet

away, and run the heater, defroster, or air conditioner to

warm up or cool down the car.

• Is designed to start the car if it is in park, and only if the hood is

closed.

• Lets you lock and unlock doors and pop the trunk by remote.

• Will attempt to start the car for up to six seconds, but no longer (to

avoid damage to the starter motor). Should the car not start, or if

it stalls after starting, the remote starter will make two further

attempts to start it.

• Protects your vehicle with a basic alarm system.

• Requires the user to “enable” the unit to prevent accidental starts.

On cars with airbags, you may notice bright yellow tubes or harnesses marked SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) underneath the steering column area. DO NOT tamper with these wires in any way, to prevent personal injury and/or damage to the air bag system. together by soldering them. Tape with electrical tape to leave no exposed wires. Alternatively, you may wish to use the yellow butt connector, but we recommend soldering. Wait to insert the 30 amp green fuse into the holder until step 11.

Note: If you already have a hood pin switch which is being used by a car alarm system, you may share the wiring – but be sure to diode isolate each wire going to the hood pin switch with the bands of diodes pointing towards the pin switch as shown at right. To Alarm Tachometer sensing If the vehicle is generally hard to start (i.e. requiring a cranking time of more than 1 second) you will get more accurate starting with the tachometer sensing starting method.

“last door arming” and “Negative going trigger”. You should diode isolate the inputs of two or more sensors on the same input wire. For POSITIVE locks (the lock wire sees a +12 volt signal briefly as the electric locks are locked but does not see ground when they are inactive) connect the Red/Black wire to the Lock wire and the Red/ White wire to the Unlock wire. If you choose not to use this alarm feature then permanently ground this wire. If the tach input is needed, proceed to step 12B.

While holding the transmitter at least three feet from the brain module, hold down the Start button on a 5 button transmitter or the lock/unlock button on a 3 button transmitter until the red LED light and the dash lights come on again for a second. The module has now learned the transmitter code. Release the transmitter button. D.

USER TIPS AND NOTES v5.3 The Remote Car Starter must be “enabled” each time the driver has finished driving and taken out the key in order for the unit to start the vehicle remotely. After the key has been removed, you must turn OFF the control switch and then turn it back ON again while no key is in the ignition. This “control switch” or “set switch” prevents unauthorized starting of the car by someone unfamiliar with the system who may be using the vehicle.
PAGE 10
The Quick Stop Option™: You can leave the car running and take the key with you for a quick visit to a store. With the car running, just turn the Control switch Off and On “Twice” just before pulling out the key. The car will run for 10 minutes or until you tap the brake or put the car in gear. Safety Notices: 1. When taking your car in for any service or repairs, disable the remote starter by switching the Control switch to the OFF position. Inform the mechanic. 2.

Initialization - What is it? Initialization - What if the unit will not initialize? Initialization is a process which proves to the unit that you have connected the required safety features and that the unit has been installed in an automatic vehicle. See “Initializing the Remote Starter” in the manual.

The vehicle runs – but without the heater or airconditioner. I have poor range. You are missing the 2nd (or 3rd) ignition wire or the accessory wire is not hooked up. Make sure the heater or airconditioner is left on when you leave the vehicle. On diesel vehicles – they may not come on for a few minutes until after the vehicle is up and running. My vehicle has Passlock I or II and I cannot get a resistance reading. Many meters have a known issue with measuring passlock.
PAGE 14
Vehicle only remote starts if I flip the toggle switch off and back on This condition is perfectly normal. This is a safety feature designed to prevent unauthorized starting. If you have forgotten to flip the switch off and back on, you can still remote start the vehicle. Just hold the start button down for 6 to 10 seconds instead of the usual 1 second.
