must be installed).
Remote Starter Features
Idle Mode

locked while you stop, for example, at a convenience store or for a short delivery.

Ignition Switch) while the engine is running. For example, if you stop for a delivery or at a conveni-
ence store, lock your vehicle and leave it running for the length of a run cycle while you are away.

1. With the engine running, press the or button (to unlock the doors) or the
button on the remote control until the parking lights come on.
