In the event of emergency starting, the battery dummy poles for
remote starting are available on the left side of the engine
compartment.
1. Positive dummy pole (+) for remote starting (covered with
protective cap)
2. Negative dummy pole (-) for remote starting.

(Park), or engage a gear on manual gearbox and ignition switch
to OFF.

devices.

(+) of the remote starting battery.
