Engine Idle Protection System (EIPS)

Vehicles equipped with a push button start or push-to-start

keyless ignition and start system work by using various antennas

throughout the vehicle to detect the presence of the vehicle’s

electronic Smart Key. If the Smart Key has been removed from the

interior cabin of these vehicles while the engine is running, the

engine will still continue to run indeﬁnitely unless action is taken

by the user to shut the ignition system off, becoming a potential

hazard if the vehicle has been left unattended in a garage or

other conﬁned space.

The Engine Idle Protection System (EIPS) available on this product

has been designed as a convenience feature that can detect

the presence of the vehicle’s Smart Key within the cabin using

the vehicle’s OEM antennas and communications network. If the

key has been removed from the vehicle, EIPS will engage and

monitor the vehicle for a pre-deﬁned amount of time conﬁgured

at the time of installation (i.e. 1 to 5 minutes). Once engaged,

if the EIPS timer expires and the key has still not been detected

inside the vehicle, the EIPS feature will assume the vehicle has

been unintentionally left idling and will shut the engine off.

EIPS (Engine Idle Protection System) will:

• Notify the user about the idling engine by sounding the

horn with a series of short beeps.

• Shut down the engine after a pre-deﬁned period of time

(i.e. 1 to 5 minutes).

• If the engine fails to shut down due to some malfunction,

EIPS will go into alarm mode and will notify the user by all

means possible (e.g. horn or siren).

Note

:

• EIPS is conﬁgured using the conﬁguration wizard.

• The EIPS feature is disabled if the vehicle is in motion so

there is no risk that the vehicle will shut off while driving,

regardless of the fob being present in the vehicle or not.

Government regulations

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is

subject to the following 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 installation. 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.

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 harmful 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.

WARNING!

Changes or modiﬁcations not expressly approved

by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s

authority to operate this device.

Warning! Safety ﬁrst

Please read the safety warnings below before proceeding.

Improper use of the product may be dangerous or illegal.

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 ques-

tions, 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 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 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 procedures 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/

emergency brake properly functions. Failure to do so can result in per-

sonal injury or property 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 opera-

tion 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 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.

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 Directed DEALER TO REPAIR OR

DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE START MODULE. DIRECTED

WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR

REINSTALLATION COSTS.

This product is designed for fuel-injected vehicles only. Use of this product

in a standard transmission vehicle must be in strict accordance with this

guide. This product should not be installed in any convertible vehicles,

soft or hard top with a manual transmission. Installation in such vehicles

may pose certain risk.

Interference

All radio devices are subject to interference, which could affect proper

performance.

Upgrades

Any upgrades to this product must be performed by an authorized

Directed dealer. Do not attempt to perform any unauthorized modifica-

tions to this product.

Water/Heat Resistance

This product is not designed to be water and/or heat-resistant. Please

take care to keep this product dry and away from heat sources. Any

damage from water or heat will void the warranty.
