Remote Vehicle Start
Your vehicle may have a remote start feature. This
feature allows you to start the engine from outside
the vehicle. It may also start 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 may
automatically regulate the inside temperature. Normal
operation of the system will return after the key is
turned to ON. See Automatic Climate Control System
on page 3-27 for additional information.
Laws in some communities may restrict the use of
remote starters. For example, some laws may require
a person using remote start to have the vehicle in
view when doing so. 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 time.
The remote vehicle start feature needs to be reset
after your vehicle’s engine is started two times using
the transmitter’s remote start button. The remote
start system is reset by inserting the vehicle’s key into
the ignition switch and turning it to ON. See Ignition
Positions on page 2-23 for information regarding
the ignition positions on your vehicle.
You can start your vehicle’s engine from approximately
197 feet (60 m) away. However, the range may be
less while the vehicle is running, and 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 may affect the
performance of the transmitter, see Remote Keyless
Entry System on page 2-5.
/
(Remote Start): If your vehicle has the remote
start feature, the keyless entry transmitter will have a
button with this symbol on it.
To start the vehicle using the remote start feature,
do the following:
1. Aim the transmitter at the vehicle.
2. Press and release the transmitter’s lock button,
then immediately press and hold the transmitter’s
remote start button until the vehicle’s turn signal
lights flash.
3. When the vehicle starts, the parking lamps will
turn on and remain on while the engine is running.
The engine will shut off automatically after
10 minutes, unless a time extension has been
done, or the vehicle’s key is inserted into the
ignition switch and turned to ON.
If you enter the vehicle after a remote start, and
the engine is still running, insert the key into the
ignition switch and turn it to ON to drive the vehicle.
