Remote Vehicle Start
Your vehicle may have a remote starting feature.
This feature allows you to start the engine from
outside the vehicle. It may also start the vehicle’s
heating or air conditioning systems, rear window
defogger, and heated seats. See Heated Seats on
page 11 and Heated and Cooled Seats on page 12
for additional information. When the remote start
system is active, the climate control system will
heat or cool the inside of the vehicle at the setting
the vehicle was set to when the vehicle was last
turned off. The rear window defogger will be turned
on by the climate control system when it is cold
outside. If the vehicle has heated seats, they may
also turn on. Cooled seats are not activated during
a remote start. Normal operation of the system will
return after the key is turned to the RUN position.
Laws in some communities may restrict the use of
remote starters. For example, some laws may
require a person using the remote start to have
the vehicle in view when doing so. Check local
regulations for any requirements on remote starting
of vehicles.
Do not use the remote start feature if your vehicle
is low on fuel. Your vehicle may run out of fuel.
If your vehicle has remote start, the RKE transmitter
provides, an increased range of operation.
However, the range may be less while the vehicle is
running. As a result, you may need to be closer to
your vehicle to turn it off, than you were to turn it on.
There are other conditions which can affect the
performance of the transmitter, see Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) System on page 94 for
additional information.
/(Remote Start): If your vehicle has the remote
start feature, the RKE transmitter will have a
button with this symbol on it.
