What is a bump starter?
Push starting, also known as bump starting, clutch starting, popping the clutch or crash starting, is a method of starting a motor vehicle with an internal combustion engine and with a manual transmission and with a mechanical fuel pump and a mechanically driven generator or alternator.
How do you manually start a remote car starter?
When you want to remote start your vehicle, simply press the button on the remote. As long as no-one has opened the door since you exited, the car will start. If the door was opened, the car will not start. This is a safety feature to ensure that no one has gotten in the vehicle and put it back in gear.
Do you have to put the key in after remote start?
Yes, even after the car remote starts, you will need to put the key to drive the car off (and also to unlock the ignition lock on the steering column, as well as to put the gear into drive for an automatic transmission car).
