Your vehicle may be equipped with a passive electronic
steering wheel lock. This lock prevents steering the vehicle
with the ignition OFF. The steering wheel lock releases
with the ignition ON. If the lock does not disengage and the
vehicle does not start, turn the wheel to the left and right
to disengage the lock.
REMOTE START — 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).
Remote Start is used to defrost windows in cold weather,
and to reach a comfortable climate in all ambient
conditions before the driver enters the vehicle.
NOTE:
 The vehicle must be equipped with an automatic trans-
mission to be equipped with Remote Start.
 Obstructions between the vehicle and key fob may
reduce this range.

Carbon monoxide is poisonous and can cause
serious injury or death when inhaled.
 Keep key fobs away from children. Operation of the
Remote Start system, windows, door locks or other
controls could cause serious injury or death.
