Operating the EVOONE442 Fortin EVO-ONE 2-way remote starter involves using a remote control that not only sends commands to the vehicle but also receives feedback from the vehicle, confirming that the commands have been executed. Here’s how to operate the system:
1. Understanding the Remote Buttons- Lock Button: Locks the vehicle doors.
- Unlock Button: Unlocks the vehicle doors.
- Start/Stop Button: Starts or stops the engine.
- Trunk Release Button: Opens the trunk (if your vehicle supports this feature).
- Function Buttons: May be used for additional features depending on your vehicle and installation.
- Locking the Vehicle:
- Press the Lock button on the remote. The vehicle’s doors will lock, and the parking lights may flash to confirm the action.
- The remote will display a confirmation (usually an icon or light) to indicate that the doors are locked.
- Unlocking the Vehicle:
- Press the Unlock button. The vehicle’s doors will unlock, and the parking lights may flash to confirm.
- The remote will display a confirmation that the doors are unlocked.
-
Starting the Car Remotely:
- Press and hold the Start/Stop button on the remote for about 3-4 seconds.
- The parking lights on your vehicle will flash to indicate the remote start command has been received.
- The engine will start, and the parking lights will stay on while the engine is running.
- The remote will provide feedback (such as a light or icon) to confirm that the engine has started successfully.
-
Entering the Vehicle:
- Unlock the doors using the Unlock button.
- Enter the vehicle and insert the key into the ignition (if required) and turn it to the “ON” position.
- For push-to-start vehicles, press the brake pedal and the start button.
-
Stopping the Engine Remotely:
- To turn off the engine remotely, press and hold the Start/Stop button again for 3-4 seconds.
- The parking lights will turn off, and the engine will stop.
- The remote will confirm that the engine has been turned off.
- Trunk Release:
- If your vehicle supports it, press and hold the Trunk Release button to open the trunk. The remote will confirm when the trunk is open.
- Panic Mode:
- Press and hold the Lock button for 3 seconds to activate panic mode. This will sound the vehicle’s horn and flash the lights. Press the Unlock button to deactivate it.
- The 2-way remote will provide visual or audible feedback confirming the success of the command (e.g., engine start, door lock/unlock). This is a key feature that distinguishes a 2-way remote from a 1-way remote.
- Battery Life: The remote is powered by a battery that will need periodic replacement. Keep an eye on the battery level indicator on the remote, if available.
- Range: The effective range of the remote can vary depending on obstacles, interference, and the battery strength. Try to operate the remote within the recommended range.
- No Feedback: If the remote doesn’t provide feedback after sending a command, you might be out of range, or the remote’s battery could be low.
- Engine Doesn’t Start: Ensure that all conditions for remote start are met (e.g., vehicle in park, parking brake engaged, doors and hood closed).
- Poor Range: Replace the remote battery if you notice a decrease in range or responsiveness.
By understanding these controls and feedback, you can effectively operate your EVOONE442 Fortin EVO-ONE 2-way remote starter.
