Introduction
Safety Considerations
The MARS is a very flexible system. It has capabilities and features which may or may not
be utilized in your installation. It also has programmable features which can affect its
operation. While these are explained as thoroughly as possible in this guide, your Omega
dealer or installer is the best source for information about your system.
✓ This unit is for vehicles with an automatic transmission only. Installation in a vehicle
equipped with a manual transmission can result in property damage or personal injury.
✓ This unit is for fuel injected gasoline or diesel engines.
✓ Children should not be left unattended in, or be allowed to play with the activating trans-
mitter device of any remote starter equipped vehicle.
✓ Do not use the remote starter feature in an enclosed garage or other structure.
Both MARS-10 and MARS-11 systems utilize a Status Light for visual indicators, and a
Valet Switch to turn the system off and to program it. The MARS-11 has a small window-
mountable receiver unit, in addition to its single-button transmitter.
MARS is a complete series of convenience and security systems; this version is “remote
starting only”, although the flexibility of its design allows its use in two distinct forms:

• The MARS-10 is operated by use of an existing keyless entry or alarm system.
• The MARS-11 is operated by its own dedicated transmitter device.
