The Remote Start system will turn the engine off if
the Remote Start button on the key fob is pushed
again, or if the engine is allowed to run for the
entire 15 minute cycle. Once the ignition is placed
in the ON/RUN position, the climate controls will
resume the previously set operations
(temperature, blower control, etc.).

To avoid unintentional shutdowns, the system will
disable for two seconds after receiving a valid
Remote Start request.
For vehicles equipped with the Keyless
Enter 'n Go™ — Passive Entry feature, the message
"Remote Start Active — Push Start Button" will
display in the instrument cluster display until you
push the START/STOP ignition button.
