Remote Vehicle Start
Your vehicle may have a remote
starting feature. This feature allows
you to start the engine from outside
of the vehicle. It may also start
up the vehicle's heating or air
conditioning systems and rear
window defogger. Normal operation
of the system will return after the
key is turned to the ON/RUN
position.
If your vehicle has an automatic
climate control system, the climate
control system will default to a
heating or cooling mode depending
on the outside temperatures. If your
vehicle does not have an automatic
climate control system, the system
will turn on at the setting the vehicle
was set to when the vehicle was
last turned off.
