Warning! Safety First
The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:
I
I
Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this
product must only be performed by an authorized DEI dealer.
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 toggle switch. 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 INSTALL A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR
IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA ADJACENT TO THE VEHICLE.
ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJACENT LIVING AREAS TO THE
ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE STORAGE
AREA MUST AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED. These precau-
tions are the sole responsibility of the user.
I
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 vehi-
cle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the
keys in the ignition. The user must also have the neutral safe-
ty 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 DEI dealer in
accordance with the Safety Check outlined in the product
installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote
start operation immediately and consult with the authorized
DEI dealer to fix the problem.
I
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 prod-
uct 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 DEI dealer.

STARTS IN GEAR IS CONTRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF
OPERATION. OPERATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER
THESE CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR
PERSONAL INJURY. YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE
OF THE UNIT AND SEEK THE ASSISTANCE OF AN AUTHORIZED
DEI DEALER TO REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED
REMOTE START MODULE. DEI WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSI-
BLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.
Locking/Arming
Pressing
for one second arms the system by activating the
starter kill and locking the doors (if the door locks are connected).
The horn will honk (if connected) and the parking lights will flash
once to confirm arming of the system. While the system is armed,
the status LED will flash once per second. The Failsafe® Starter Kill
(if installed) will also prevent the vehicle’s starter from cranking.
The system can also be programmed to arm the optional Failsafe®
Starter Kill automatically (called Passive Mode). If the system has
been programmed for Passive Mode, the Failsafe® Starter Kill will
automatically activate 30 seconds after the ignition has been
turned off. After the ignition has been turned off, the status LED
will flash rapidly to indicate that the system is in Passive Mode.
If Passive Mode has been programmed on, then it is also possible
to program the system for Passive Locking. With Passive Locking,
the vehicle doors lock automatically at the same time that the Failsafe®
Starter Kill is activated. If Passive Locking is programmed on, care
must be taken to prevent the keys from being locked in the vehicle.

NOTE: For Passive Mode to be effective, the Failsafe® Starter Kill relay
must be installed.
Unlocking/Disarming
Pressing
for one second disarms the system and unlocks the
doors (if connected). The horn will honk twice (if connected) and
the parking lights will flash twice to confirm disarming of the sys-
tem. The optional Failsafe® Starter Kill will be deactivated. The sta-
tus LED will turn off, unless the system is programmed for Passive
Mode. In Passive Mode, the status LED will flash rapidly when the
system is disarmed. This indicates that the system will re-engage
the starter kill and re-lock the doors (if Passive Locking has been
programmed) in 30 seconds unless the ignition is turned on.
Disabling the Starter Kill Without a Transmitter
If your remote transmitter is lost or damaged, you can manually
override the starter kill. To do this, you must have the vehicle's
ignition key and know where the Valet® switch is located. Be sure
to check with the installer for the location of the Valet® switch.
To override the starter kill, turn
the ignition on and press the
Valet® switch within 10 seconds.

Starter Anti-Grind Circuitry
Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind cir-
cuitry prevents the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned
to the start position. This prevents damage to the starter motor if
the key is turned to the start position during remote start operation.
NOTE: Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote start system is
operating the motor and the Failsafe® Starter Kill relay is installed.

Disabling the Remote Start System
This feature allows your system's remote start unit to be tem-
porarily disabled to prevent the vehicle from being remote started
accidentally. This feature is useful if the vehicle is being serviced
or stored in an enclosed area. To disable the remote start, move
the shutdown toggle switch to the OFF position. The switch can
be installed in a location of your choice. Check with your installer
for recommended locations.
LOCATION OF SHUTDOWN SWITCH_________________________
Rapid Resume Logic
This DEI® system will store its current state to non-volatile
memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will
recall the stored state from memory. This means if the unit is in
Valet® Mode and the battery is disconnected for any reason, such
as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will
still be in Valet Mode. This applies to all states of the system
including arm, disarm, VRS®, and Valet Mode.

Glossary of Terms
Control Unit: The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under-
neath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor
which monitors your vehicle and controls all system functions.
®
Failsafe Starter Kill: An automatic switch controlled by your sys-
tem which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever
the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from cranking
when the system is disarmed, in Valet® Mode, or if the starter kill
switch itself fails. Your system has feature-ready circuitry for the
starter kill, however installation may require additional labor.
LED: A red light mounted at a discretionary location inside the
vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system.
Transmitter: A hand-held, remote control which operates the var-
ious functions of your system.
®
Valet Switch: A small push button mounted at a discretionary
location inside the vehicle. It is used to override the Failsafe®
Starter Kill when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or
exit Valet® Mode.

Convenience Expansions
Listed below are some of the many expansion options available for
use with your system. Some options may require additional parts
and/or labor. Please consult with your dealer for a complete list of
options available for use with this system.
Domelight Supervision: The domelight will illuminate for 30
seconds each time the system is disarmed using the transmitter.
This is useful for seeing inside the vehicle at night prior to
entering it.
Power Door Lock Control: Your system is capable of controlling
many types of power door lock systems; however, some door lock
systems may require extra parts. Consult with your dealer to deter-
mine which type of locks your vehicle uses. If power locks are
connected, the system can be programmed to lock the doors auto-
matically 30 seconds after the ignition has been turned off. The
system can also be programmed to lock the doors when the ignition
is turned on and to unlock them when the ignition is turned off.
Power Trunk Release: The system’s auxiliary output can be pro-
grammed to operate a factory power release for the vehicle's trunk
or hatch. If the factory release is not power-activated, DEI®'s 522T
