Government regulations
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesirable operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential instal-
lation. This equipment generates and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television, which can be determined by
turning the equipment OFF and ON, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.
Remote Controls
To satisfy FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, this device should be used
in hand-held, hand operated configurations only. The device and its antenna
must maintain a separation distance of 20 cm or more from the person’s body,
except for the hand and wrists, to satisfy RF exposure compliance. This device
is designed to be used in a person’s hands and its operating configurations do
not support normal transmissions while it is carried in pockets or holsters next to
a person’s body.

Control Center
To satisfy FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the device and its antenna
must maintain a separation distance of 20 cm or more from the person’s body,
except for the hand and wrists, to satisfy RF exposure compliance.
This device complies with the Industry Canada Radio Standards Specification
RSS 210. Its use is authorized only on a no-interference, no-protection basis; in
other words, this device must not be used if it is determined that it causes harm-
ful interference to services authorized by IC. In addition, the user of this device
must accept any radio interference that may be received, even if this interference
could affect the operation of the device.

Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party re-
sponsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this device.

Warning! Safety first
The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:
Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be
performed by an authorized Directed 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 ADJA-
CENT 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 precautions are the sole
responsibility of the user.
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 procedures
regarding manual transmission remote starters. If you have any questions, ask
your installer 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/emergen-
cy brake properly functions. Failure to do so can result in personal injury or prop-
erty damage. We recommend the owner have the parking / emergency brake
system inspected and adjusted by a qualified automotive shop biannually.
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 immediately and
consult with the authorized Directed dealer to x 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. OPERAT-
ING 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 AU-
THORIZED Directed DEALER TO REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED
REMOTE START MODULE. DIRECTED WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR
PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.
