Operating the EVOONE442 Fortin EVO-ONE 2-way car remote starter is fairly straightforward, and it offers enhanced feedback compared to standard one-way systems. Here’s how you can use it:
1. Understanding the 2-Way Remote- 2-Way Communication: The key feature of a 2-way remote is its ability to both send commands to your vehicle and receive confirmations back from the vehicle. For example, if you start your car remotely, the remote will notify you whether the start was successful.
- LED/Screen Display: The remote may have an LED indicator or a small screen that displays the status of the vehicle (e.g., engine running, doors locked/unlocked).
-
Starting the Engine:
- Press the Start Button: Typically, you’ll press and hold the start button on your remote for a few seconds.
- Confirmation:
- The remote will send a signal to the vehicle to start the engine.
- The remote’s LED or screen should confirm that the signal was received and that the vehicle’s engine has started.
- The vehicle’s parking lights may also flash or remain on to indicate that the engine is running.
- Feedback:
- The 2-way remote will usually give an audible beep or visual confirmation on the screen that the engine has started successfully.
-
Stopping the Engine:
- Press the Stop Button: Press and hold the stop button on the remote (this may be the same button as the start button).
- Confirmation:
- The remote will send a signal to the vehicle to turn off the engine.
- The remote’s LED or screen should confirm that the engine has been turned off.
- The parking lights will typically turn off as well.
-
Locking the Vehicle:
- Press the Lock Button: Press the lock button on your remote.
- Confirmation:
- The remote will confirm that the vehicle is locked by displaying a lock icon, flashing the LED, or providing an audible confirmation.
- The vehicle’s lights may flash or the horn may chirp to indicate the doors are locked.
-
Unlocking the Vehicle:
- Press the Unlock Button: Press the unlock button on your remote.
- Confirmation:
- The remote will confirm that the vehicle is unlocked by displaying an unlock icon, flashing the LED, or providing an audible confirmation.
- The vehicle’s lights may flash, or you may hear a sound indicating the doors are unlocked.
- Trunk Release:
- Press and hold the trunk release button (if available) to open the trunk remotely. The remote should confirm the command was successful.
- Panic Mode:
- If your remote has a panic button, pressing and holding it will trigger the vehicle’s alarm or horn, which can be useful in emergencies.
- Runtime Extension:
- If the default runtime for the remote start is not sufficient, you can press the start button again while the vehicle is running to extend the runtime. The remote should confirm the extension.
- Battery Level:
- The remote may display a low battery indicator if the battery is running low, ensuring you can replace it before losing functionality.
- Error Alerts:
- If there’s an issue (e.g., the vehicle didn’t start due to a door being open), the remote will typically provide a specific error notification, such as a flashing LED, an icon, or a specific sequence of beeps.
- Entering the Vehicle:
- Unlock and Enter: Use the unlock button to access the vehicle.
- Insert and Turn the Key: Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the "On" position.
- Press the Brake Pedal: Press the brake pedal to take over the vehicle. The engine will continue running, and you can drive away.
- App Control: If your system is paired with a smartphone app, you can perform all of these operations from your phone. The app will provide similar feedback and confirmations directly on your device.
- No Response:
- If the vehicle does not respond to the remote, ensure you are within range, the remote’s battery is charged, and the vehicle’s systems are functioning correctly.
- Interference:
- Be aware of potential interference from other wireless devices or strong radio frequencies that might affect the remote's performance.
- Replacing the Remote’s Battery:
- Follow the instructions in your user manual to replace the remote’s battery when needed. Typically, this involves removing a small xxxx or snapping open the remote’s case.
By following these steps, you should be able to effectively operate your EVOONE442 Fortin EVO-ONE 2-way car remote starter, making your vehicle more convenient and secure to use.
