Viper 5500 Owner Manual - Page 25

Remote Start This feature allows you to remotely start and run your vehicle for a programmable period of time. This makes it possible to warm up the engine, as well as adjust the interior temperature of the vehicle with the climate control system. If interior heating or cooling is desired, the climate controls must be preset, and the fan blower must be set to the desired level prior to remote starting the vehicle. IMPORTANT! (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the key in the ignition. To remote start the vehicle: 1. Press on the transmitter 2 times. 2. The parking lights will flash to confirm that the vehicle will attempt to start. 3. Release the buttons as soon as the parking lights flash. (In gasoline vehicles, the engine will start 4 seconds after the parking lights flash. In diesel vehicles, the engine will start when the WAIT-TO-START indicator on the vehicle's dash goes out.) 4. Once the vehicle has started, it will run for the pre-programmed period of time (either 12, 24, or 60 minutes - see Programming Options section of this guide) or until a shutdown input is triggered. 22 © 2006 Directed Electronics-all rights reserved
