REMOTE STARTING
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
This system uses the key fob to start the engine
conveniently from outside the vehicle while still
maintaining security. The system has a range of
328 ft (100 m).
The Remote Starting System also activates the Cli-
mate Control, vented seats (if equipped) in tem-
peratures above 80° F (26.7° C), and the optional
heated seats, and optional heated steering wheel in
temperatures below 40° F (4.4° C).
NOTE:
• The vehicle must be equipped with an automatic
transmission to be equipped with Remote Start.
• Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob
may reduce this range.

How To Use Remote Start

• Push Remote Start button on the key fob twice
within five seconds. Pushing the Remote Start but-
ton a third time shuts the engine off.
• To drive the vehicle, push unlock button, and place
the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
• With remote start, the engine will only run for
15 minutes (timeout) unless the ignition key is
placed in the ON/RUN position.

consecutive timeouts.

WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a closed

when inhaled.
• Keep key fobs away from children. Opera-
tion of the Remote Start System, windows,
door locks or other controls could cause se-
rious injury or death.
