WELCOME TO AKX!
Congratulations on the purchase of your AKX remote start system. You are now moments away
from enjoying the added comfort of remote start along with the factory features you love. Please
take a moment to review the following important operating instructions.
remote start runtime
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 Authorized Dealer.
