Installation Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized Directed dealer. If you have any questions, ask your retailer or contact Directed directly at 1-800-753-0600. Remote Start Capable When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal from the remote control transmitter. Therefore, never operate the system in an enclosed area or partially enclosed area without ventilation (such as a garage). When parking in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced, the remote start system must be disabled using the installed menu wheel. It is the user’s sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from children all remote control transmitters to assure that the system does not unintentionally remote start the vehicle. THE USER MUST IN- STALL A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA ADJACENT TO THE VEHICLE. ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJACENT LIV- ING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE STOR- AGE AREA MUST AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED. These precautions are the sole responsibility of the user. Manual Transmission Vehicles Remote starters on manual transmission vehicles operate differently than those with automatic transmission because you must leave your car in neutral. You must read this Owner’s Guide to familiarize yourself with the proper proce- dures regarding manual transmission remote starters. If you have any questions, ask your authorized Directed dealer or contact Directed at 1-800-753-0600.

Before remote starting a manual transmission vehicle, be sure to: • Leave the vehicle in neutral and be sure no one is standing in front or behind the vehicle. • Only remote start on a flat surface • Have the parking brake fully engaged WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure the parking/emer- gency brake properly functions. Failure to do so can result in personal injury or property damage. We recommend the owner have the parking / emergency brake system inspected and adjusted by a qualified automotive shop biannu- ally. Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of operation may result in property damage, personal injury, or death. (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the keys in the ignition. The user must also have the neutral safety feature of the vehicle periodically checked, wherein the vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear. This testing should be performed by an authorized Directed dealer in accordance with the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation im- mediately and consult with the authorized Directed dealer to fix the problem. After the remote start module has been installed, contact your authorized dealer to have him or her test the remote start module by performing the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts when performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit test, the remote start unit has not been properly installed. The remote start module must be removed or the installer must properly reinstall the remote start system so that the vehicle does not start in gear. All installations must be performed by an authorized Directed dealer. OPERATION OF THE REMOTE START MODULE IF THE VEHICLE STARTS IN

GEAR IS CONTRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF OPERATION. OPER- ATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. YOU MUST IMME- DIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND SEEK THE ASSISTANCE OF AN AUTHORIZED Directed DEALER TO REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE IN- STALLED REMOTE START MODULE.
