Remote Vehicle Start
Your vehicle may have a remote starting feature. This
feature allows you to start the engine from outside of the
vehicle. It also starts up the vehicle’s heating or air
conditioning systems and rear window defogger. When
the remote start system is active and the vehicle
has an automatic climate control system, it will
automatically regulate the inside temperature. Normal
operation of the system will return after the key is turned
to the on position. A remote start occurs when buttons
on the remote keyless entry transmitter are pressed.
Laws in some local communities require that a person
using remote start have the vehicle in view when
doing so and may prohibit the execution of remote start
if not in view of the vehicle. Check local regulations
for any requirements on remote starting of vehicles.
Do not use the remote start feature if your vehicle is low
on fuel. Your vehicle may run out of fuel.
The remote start feature provides two separate starts,
each with 10 minutes of engine running. Or it provides
one start with 10 minutes of engine running, which can be
extended by 10 more minutes, for 20 minutes of total
running time. Once two starts or 20 minutes running time
has been provided, the vehicle must be started normally
with the ignition key to get more remote starts.
The remote start feature will not operate if the key is in
the ignition or the hood is not closed.
Your remote keyless entry transmitter, with the remote
start button, provides an increased range of operation.
However, the range may be less while the vehicle
is running. As a result, you may need to be closer to
your vehicle to turn it off, than you were to turn it on.
There are other conditions which can affect the
performance of the transmitter, see “Remote Keyless
Entry System Operation” previously in this section.
