INSTALLER TERMS OF USE

Prior to beginning installation of an Omegalink system in a vehicle, it is the Certified Technician’s responsibility to review the most current Product Guide, Install Guide and vehicle-specific notes available in Weblink®. Omegalink is not responsible for any damages whatsoever, including but not limited to any consequential damages, incidental damages, damages for loss of time, loss of earnings, loss of profit, commercial loss, loss of economic opportunity and the like that may or may not have resulted from the use, misuse, improper installation or operation of its systems. Purchasers sole contractual remedy is refund of the purchase price of the Omegalink system. Omegalink reserves itself the right to suspend any Weblink® account without notice and decline to offer technical support to non-Certified Technicians, non-compliant Certified Technicians or end users.
END USER TERMS OF USE
Omegalink systems are designed to remote start vehicles from a distance. In order to ensure your Omegalink system meets all safety regulations and operates as intended by the manufacturer, please follow the usage recommendations below:
• DO NOT use this system for any purpose other than its intended usage.
• DO NOT remote start a vehicle in an indoor or enclosed area (i.e. garage). Exhaust fumes are extremely dangerous and can cause personal injury or death. Install carbon monoxide detectors in every living area that can be exposed to vehicle exhaust fumes.
• DO NOT remote start a vehicle while it is being serviced. Follow the Valet Mode procedure as outlined in your Owner’s Manual.
• DO NOT remote start a vehicle in gear.
• DO NOT remote start a vehicle with the key in the ignition.
• DO NOT remote start a vehicle left unattended with open windows, unlocked doors or open convertible top.
• DO NOT allow children handle or operate long range remotes.
• ALWAYS engage your emergency brake prior to exiting your vehicle. This may limit motion if the vehicle is accidentally started in gear.
• AVOID remote starting your vehicle while passengers or pets are on board. This may increase the risk of shifter being put in gear after vehicle has been remote started.
• AVOID parking your vehicle on an inclined surface or an area surrounded by obstacles. For manual vehicles, ALWAYS ensure the Reservation Mode sequence, as outlined in your Owner’s Manual, is correctly engaged prior to the next remote start.
• AVOID delaying the inspection of your Omegalink system in the event of malfunction. Immediately contact a Certified Technician to ensure that installation or defective equipment is properly addressed.
Your Omegalink system may enable remote engine start by performing one of the following button sequences on your factory key fob:
| BUTTON | FUNCTION |
|---|---|
Press on   |
Start engine |
| Press on |
Stop engine |
OR
| BUTTON | FUNCTION |
|---|---|
Press on  |
Start engine |
| Press on |
Stop engine |
NOTE: This feature may not be supported on some vehicles. If supported, the chosen button sequence will be communicated to you by your Omegalink Authorized Dealer at the time of installation. The remote start range will be equal to your factory key fob’s door lock range.
Once remote started from your factory key fob or long-range remote, your vehicle will run for the programmed ‘runtime’ setting. The default runtime is 15 minutes but it can also be programmed for 3, 5, 10, 25, 30 or 35 minutes. If you wish to change your remote start runtime setting, contact your Omegalink Authorized Dealer.
The ‘key takeover’ procedure ensures that your engine does not shut down upon entering the vehicle, during the programmed remote start runtime. To prevent your vehicle from shutting down, complete the steps below within the programmed delay time (45 seconds, 90 seconds, 3 minutes or 4 minutes):
| FOR STANDARD KEY VEHICLES |
|---|
| 1. Unlock and enter vehicle |
| 2. Close doors |
| 3. Insert key into ignition and turn ignition to ON position |
| 4. Press foot brake |
| FOR PUSH-TO-START VEHICLES |
|---|
| 1. Unlock and enter vehicle with valid smartkey |
| 2. Close doors |
| 3. Press foot brake |
NOTE: This feature may not be supported on some vehicles. If available, the programmed ‘key takeover’ delay time will be communicated to you by your Omegalink Authorized Dealer at the time of installation.
To ensure safety during vehicle servicing, the remote starter must be placed in ‘Valet Mode’. The ‘Valet Mode’ will disable remote start functionality. To activate or deactivate the ‘Valet Mode’, follow the instructions below:
| USING THE VEHICLE KEY |
|---|
| 1. Cycle ignition OFF/ON twice (2x) rapidly |
| 2. Press the brake pedal three times (3x) |
| 3. If the parking lights flash once (1x), the valet mode is ON. If the parking lights flash twice (2x), the valet mode is OFF. |
If your Omegalink remote fails to start the vehicle, the parking lights will flash three times immediately, then flash a number of times according to the errors below:
