Remote Vehicle Start
✦
During a remote start, the automatic climate control system will
default to a heating or cooling mode, depending on the outside
temperature, until the ignition is turned on. Once the ignition is in
the On position, the automatic climate control system will operate
at the same setting as when the vehicle was last turned off.
Starting the Vehicle

range depends on operating conditions.)

Lock
button on the transmitter.

button for at

will light and remain on while the engine is running. The
engine will continue running for 10 minutes.

start can be extended only once.
