Although the remote start transmitter only has one button, it actually performs five functions. When the
vehicle is sitting parked and not running, the transmitter can be used to activate the car find feature or
the remote start feature. When the vehicle is running on the remote start system, the transmitter can be
used to shut down the engine. When the vehicle is running using the vehicle key, the transmitter can be
used to active the quick-stop feature or activate/deactivate the system service/valet mode (reference
page 4 for details).
Starting Your Vehicle
The remote control start function is activated by pressing the START button twice within 3 seconds on your
remote control transmitter. The system will check certain pre-conditions before starting, and if all safety
parameters are correct, the engine will start within 5 seconds. Also, the system has a timer and will shut
down after 15 minutes if you do not operate the vehicle. Press and hold the START button again to turn the
vehicle off.
Remote Start Safety Features
For safety and security reasons, the system will fail to start and beep the horn twice or shut down the engine
during remote start operation if any of the following occur:
•
The brake pedal is pressed before the vehicle ignition key is turned on
•
The ignition key was already in the ignition
•
The vehicle hood is opened
As a safety precaution, the vehicle will shut off if left unattended for 15 minutes.
