This feature allows you to remotely start and run your vehicle for

a programmable period of time. This makes it possible to warm up

the engine, as well as adjust the interior temperature of the vehi-

cle with the climate control system. If interior heating or cooling

is desired, the climate controls must be preset, and the fan blower

must be set to the desired level prior to remote starting the

vehicle.

IMPORTANT!

(1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle 

in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the key in the 
ignition. 

To remote start the vehicle: 

1.

Press 

on the transmitter 2 times. 

2.

The parking lights will flash to confirm that the vehicle will

attempt to start.

3.

Release the 

buttons as soon as the parking lights flash.

(In gasoline vehicles, the engine will start 4 seconds after

the parking lights flash. In diesel vehicles, the engine will

start when the WAIT-TO-START indicator on the vehicle's dash

goes out or the timer has expired.)

4.

Once the vehicle has started, it will run for the pre-program-

med period of time (12, 24, or 60 minutes) or until a shut-

down input is triggered.
