•
Additional features, such as windshield wipers, will
also not be available while the vehicle is in the
Remote Start mode.
•
The engine can be started two consecutive times
(two 15 minute cycles) with the key fob. However,
the ignition switch must be placed in the ON/RUN
position before you can repeat the start sequence
for a third cycle.
TO EXIT REMOTE START MODE
WITHOUT DRIVING THE VEHICLE
Push and release the Remote Start button one time or
allow the engine to run for the entire 15 minute cycle.
NOTE:
To avoid unintentional shut downs, the system will dis-
able for two seconds after receiving a valid Remote
Start request.
TO EXIT REMOTE START MODE AND
DRIVE THE VEHICLE
To exit Remote Start Mode and drive the vehicle before
the end of the 15 minute cycle, push and release the
unlock button on the key fob to unlock the door and
disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm system (if equipped).
Then, prior to the end of the 15 minute cycle, place the
ignition in the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
The ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position in
order to drive the vehicle.
REMOTE START COMFORT
SYSTEMS — IF EQUIPPED
When Remote Start Is activated, the heated steering
wheel, and driver heated seat features will automati-
cally turn on in cold weather. In warm weather, the
driver vented seat feature will automatically turn on
when the Remote Start is activated. These features will
stay on through the duration of Remote Start or until
the ignition switch is placed in the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
The Remote Start Comfort system can be activated and
deactivated through the Uconnect system under
“Auto-On Comfort And Remote Start”. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further infor-
mation on Remote Start Comfort system operation.
SENTRY KEY
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system prevents unauthor-
ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The sys-
tem does not need to be armed or activated. Operation
is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses a key fob, keyless push button ignition
and a Radio Frequency (RF) receiver to prevent unau-
thorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only key fobs that
are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and
operate the vehicle. The system cannot reprogram a
key fob obtained from another vehicle.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position,
the Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three seconds
for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb
check, it indicates that there is a problem with the elec-
tronics. In addition, if the light begins to flash after the
bulb check, it indicates that someone attempted to
start the engine with an invalid key fob. In the event
that a valid key fob is used to start the engine but there
is an issue with the vehicle electronics, the engine will
start and shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal
vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than
10 seconds), it indicates that there is a fault in the elec-
tronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as
soon as possible by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key Immobilizer system is not compatible
with some aftermarket remote starting systems. Use
of these systems may result in vehicle starting prob-
lems and loss of security protection.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
KEY PROGRAMMING
Programming key fobs may be performed at an autho-
rized dealer.
REPLACEMENT KEYS
NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the vehicle elec-
tronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle.
Once a key fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be
programmed to any other vehicle.
