3. Slide the new battery into the transmitter with the
positive side of the battery facing down. Use a
type CR2032 battery, or equivalent type.
4. Snap the front and the back of the transmitter

water will not get in.
5. Test the operation of the transmitter with the
vehicle.
Remote Vehicle Start
The remote vehicle starting feature allows you to start
the engine from outside of the vehicle. It also starts
up the vehicle’s automatic climate control system.
If moderate or warmer outside temperatures exist, the
climate control system will default to automatic
temperature control and fan speed to regulate and
maintain a moderate inside temperature. When
the outside temperature is cold, the climate control
system will start up the rear window defogger and
default to the front windshield defrost mode with the
heat on and the fan blower set to high. If the vehicle
has heated seats, they will also turn on.
Cooled seats are not activated during a remote start.
Normal operation of the climate control system will
return after the key is turned to RUN. See Dual Climate
Control System on page 3-44.
Laws in some communities may restrict the use of
remote starters. For example, some laws may require a
person using 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.
Your remote keyless entry transmitter, with the remote
start button, 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 System Operation” listed previously for additional
information.
