Remote Vehicle Start

(if equipped)
This feature allows you to start the
engine from outside the vehicle by using
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) trans-
mitter. The remote start capability must
be turned on using the Driver
Information Center.
The vehicle's automatic climate control
system (if equipped) will default to a
heating or cooling mode based on
outside temperature, and the manual
climate control system will turn on at
the same setting as when the vehicle
was last turned off.
Starting the Vehicle
To remote start the vehicle:
1. Aim the RKE transmitter at the vehicle.
(Transmitter range is within approxi-
mately 200 feet of the vehicle.)
2. Press and release the
button on the transmitter.
3. Immediately press and hold the
(Remote Start) button for about four
seconds. When the parking lamps
flash, release the button. The engine
will start and the parking lamps will
remain on. The engine will continue
running for 10 minutes.
4. Repeat these steps for a 10-minute
time extension. Only two consecutive
remote starts are allowed.
When you enter the vehicle after a
remote start, the key must be inserted
in the ignition and turned to the Run
position before driving.
