Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or
confined area. Exhaust gas contains carbon mon-
oxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon
monoxide is poisonous and can cause serious
injury or death when inhaled.

Keep key fobs away from children. Operation of the
Remote Start system, windows, door locks or other

REMOTE START FRONT DEFROST
ACTIVATION — IF EQUIPPED
When Remote Start is active, and the outside ambient
temperature is 40°F (4.5°C) or below, the system will
automatically activate front defrost for 15 minutes or
less. The time is dependent on the ambient tempera-
ture. Once the timer expires, the system will automati-
cally adjust the settings depending on ambient condi-
tions. See “Remote Start Comfort Systems —
If Equipped” in the next section for detailed operation.
REMOTE START COMFORT

When Remote Start is activated, the front and rear
defrost will automatically turn on in cold weather. The

Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) — If Equipped
The climate controls automatically adjust to an optimal
temperature and mode, dependent upon the outside
ambient temperature. When the ignition is placed in the

previous settings.

In ambient temperatures of 40°F (4.5°C) or below,
the climate settings will default to maximum heat,

In ambient temperatures from 40°F (4.5°C) to
78°F (26°C), the climate settings will be based on
the last settings selected by the driver.
