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 vehi-
cle was last turned off.
Starting the Vehicle
To remote start the vehicle:
1. Aim the RKE transmitter at the
vehicle. (Transmitter range is within
approximately 200 feet of the
vehicle.)
2. Press and release the
button on the transmitter.
3. Immediately press and hold the
(Remote Vehicle Start) button for
about four seconds. When the park-
ing 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 posi-
tion before driving.
