ShortStop When you stop for a brief errand, rather than shut down and then restart the engine moments later, you may remove your car keys and remotely arm without shutting down the engine: 1. Park, place the transmission in park or neutral and engage the handbrake. 2. Without touching the brake, press button 4 (master) or button D (companion). Two parking light flashes will confirm this action. 3. Turn the ignition off and remove your keys. The engine will continue to idle. 4. Exit and arm with the remote control. The engine will continue to idle under the control of your system for up to 30 minutes. 5. When you return, use the To drive the vehicle after remote starting procedure noted above. LowTemp/LowBattery AutoStart Your system can be set to automatically start the engine if: • The temperature drops below a certain level and/or • The vehicle battery voltage drops below a certain level If the LowTemp AutoStart feature has been programmed on and remotely activated by pressing the master remote control LevelShift button twice, then button 3 or by pressing button DD on the companion remote, the system will automatically start and idle the engine when the interior temperature drops to -15°C or lower. If the LowBattery AutoStart feature has been programmed on and remotely activated as noted in the system's complete owner's manual, the system will automatically start and idle the engine if the voltage drops below 12.2 volts to recharge the battery. With the optional CliffNet Wizard software and DataPort Replicator Cable, you may set the temperature and/or voltage thresholds you prefer. Manual transmission SafeStart PLEASE NOTE: This section is only for vehicles with a manual transmission. If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, skip this section. For safety reasons, the transmission must be left in neutral if the engine will be remotely started. To assure safe remote starting, you must perform these steps before exiting: 1. Park and, while the engine is running, place the transmission in neutral and set the handbrake. 2. Without touching the brake, transmit channel 11 (LevelShift button twice, then button 3) on the master remote or press button DD on the companion remote. Two parking light flashes will confirm this action. 3. Turn the ignition off and remove your keys. The engine will continue to idle. 4. Exit and arm. The engine will shut down. This prepares the system to later accept your remote starting command. NOTE: For safety reasons, the system ignores the remote start command if the alarm sounded while you were away. Extended Accessory Power The system will continue to power your car stereo, power windows and other accessories even after you shut off the engine (may require optional parts/wiring). So if you turn off the key and realize you forgot to roll up a window, you don't need to turn the ignition back on. Extended Accessory Power lasts 5 minutes or until a door is opened. On a limited number of vehicles, this feature can cause operational problem. If this is the case, this feature can be programmed off via the User-selectable features programming. 10
