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 fully benefit from the capabilities of your AviStart system, we encourage you to read the Owner’s Manual thoroughly before using the system. If you have any problems or questions regarding your AviStart system, consult the dealer from whom you purchased this product. To locate an authorized Avital dealer, contact Customer Service directly at 1-800-824-3208 (toll-free within the U.S.) or 1-818-709-7551. Lifetime Warranty Avital guarantees the operation of your AviStart control unit and remote controls for as long as you own your car. (Please refer to back of this manual for complete information.) Remote Controls Included with your AviStart system are two AviGlo™ 4-button/9-channel remote controls. Once exposed to light, the AviGlo remote control buttons will glow, making the buttons visible in the dark. The remote control (remote) is a miniature transmitter powered by a small +12 volt battery. The RangeMaster™ super-heterodyne receiver (installed in your vehicle) allows your remote to command your system from up to ¼ mile away. Obstructions, electrical or radio interference, weather conditions, window tint or a weak battery can reduce this range. Your remote is the key to your AviStart system and can be used to arm and disarm your alarm, lock and unlock your doors, "pop" your trunk, start your engine and control optional accessories. The AviStart system can accept up to four Avital remote controls. Additional remote controls and remote control batteries can be purchased from any authorized Avital dealer, or by calling Customer Service at 1-800-824-3208 (toll-free within the U.S.) or 1-818-709-7551. 2 AviStart 6501 Owner's Manual - 0999

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. This technology makes code-grabbing devices useless. Electronic Scan Prevention (ESP) Your AviStart system also includes ESP, which blocks electronic scanner codes preventing unauthorized operation of your system. Instant Remote Control Code Deletion In the event of a lost or stolen remote control, all remote controls can be erased from the system's memory preventing unauthorized system operation. (See the "Programming Table for Remote Controls" on page 16). One-Step Remote Control Code Learning The AviStart system allows you to add new remote controls in one step. (See the "Programming Table for Remote Controls" on page 16). Valet Switch The valet switch is a small hidden toggle switch which allows you to control all of the system's programmable features. (See "User-Programmable Features" on page 14). This switch can only be controlled with the use of your ignition key. NOTE: Be sure to have your dealer show you where the valet switch is located. 3 AviStart 6501 Owner's Manual - 0999
