Getting Started

Your Responder LCD remote is powered by an internal rechargeable battery that can only be serviced by an authorized Directed dealer.

Due to transit and storage time prior to your purchase, the battery charge may have depleted. To ensure proper operation, check the battery level and connect the battery charger if not fully charged. “Battery Information (Responder LCD)” on page 44 and “Status Screen

Icons” on page 8 for more information about the battery.

Charging the remote control:

1. Plug the AC adapter into a 110V AC outlet. Insert the mini-USB connector into the mini-USB port located on the side of the remote control (“Responder LCD 2-Way” on page 4). The text field will display

CHARGE

to indicate the remote control is charging (The remote remains operational while charging and can command the system).

2. Once fully charged the text field will display

FULL

.

3. The remote control is then ready for use. Disconnect the mini-

USB end from the remote control first and then the AC adapter from the AC outlet.

Note If the battery is excessively depleted when the charger is connected, functionality may be delayed while it charges to the minimum voltage required to operate the display, after which normal charging resumes.

Remote and System Operations

Passive Locking*

Park and exit the vehicle, after the doors are closed the Passive Locking countdown begins. The led flashes quickly and upon reaching 20 seconds the horn honks once. At 30 seconds the system Locks itself.

Anytime before the system Locks you can re-enter the vehicle to load or unload items and, after closing passive Locking resumes.

To stay secure in case of accidental Unlocking the system, if a door is not opened within 30 seconds the system re-Locks itself and re-locks the doors.

Auto Re-Locking*

Auto re-Lock ensures the vehicle stays protected if it is not entered after

Unlocking by remote control. After Unlocking by remote, the system automatically re-Locks itself (and locks the doors if programmed on) in

30 seconds. Open any point of entry to stop the Lock until the next

Unlock by remote.

Onetime Bypass*

Turn the ignition On for one to three seconds and then Off. The horn honks once to confirm one-time bypass is enabled.

One-time bypass can be used to temporarily bypass the Passive Locking operation for one cycle. It also bypasses the comfort closure and auxiliary channel outputs programmed to activate when Locking. After the next Unlock all operations return to normal.

* These features must be turned on by an authorized Directed dealer.

Valet Mode

Valet mode can be entered and exited by performing the Remote Valet command or manually using the vehicle key and the control button.

When entered, the optional Failsafe Starter Kill is defeated while the convenience features still operate normally.

Lock and Unlock commands still lock and unlock the doors while the

VALET text and beeps play to confirm.

Use the following steps to manually enter and exit Valet Mode:

1. Turn the ignition switch On and then Off

3. The control center LED turns On when entering and Off when exiting.

Power Save

To reduce power consumption the control center status led modifies its output if the vehicle is parked for an extended period. If Locked the flashing is reduced after 24 hours. When Valet mode is On the LED will turn off 1 hour and will reset each time the ignition is turned off.

Rapid Resume

If power is ever disconnected by a mechanic, the system will resume the state it was in at the time of disconnection, when power is reconnected.

Automatic Remote Updates

The system sends a silent message to all remote controls after any major action has occurred. When the remote receives this message it updates the status screen icons. This way all users are able to quickly review the system status just by accessing the status screen.


Out of Range

Each time a command is performed the remote will expect a command confirmation from the system. If a command confirmation is not received the out-of-range icon ( ) and a fault tone will play as an alert.

No Remote Output

Occasionally when a command is performed the remote may not generate a command confirmation output or Out of Range output.

This indicates that the system received the command but it was an incomplete command (e.g. Aux button pressed too short to activate the trunk release) or it was an illegal message (e.g. the command was corrupted due to local RF interference). These are temporary normal functions of the system and remote, perform the command again within 10 seconds to return to normal operation.

Feature not Available

The NOT AVAILABLE message is a generic one which varies in cause and solution depending upon the command used:
