the circuitry on the transmitter.
Static from your body could
damage the transmitter.

a flat, thin object inserted into
the notch, located above the
metal base.
2. Remove the old battery. Do not
use a metal object.
3. Insert the new battery, positive

CR2032 or equivalent battery.

Remote Vehicle Start
This feature allows you to start the
engine from outside of the vehicle.
It may also start up the vehicle's
heating or air conditioning systems
and rear window defogger. Normal
operation of the system will return
after the key is turned to the
ON/RUN position.
During a remote start, the climate
control system will default to a
heating or cooling mode depending
on the outside temperatures.
During a remote start, if the vehicle
has an automatic climate control
system and heated seats, the
heated seats will turn on during
colder outside temperatures and
will shut off when the key is turned
to ON/RUN. If the vehicle does not
have an automatic climate control
system, during remote start, you will
need to manually turn the heated
seats on and off. See Heated and
Ventilated Front Seats on page 38
for additional information.
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 the vehicle is low on fuel.
The vehicle may run out of fuel.
If the vehicle has the remote start
feature, the RKE transmitter
functions will have an increased
range of operation. However,
the range may be less while the
vehicle is running.
There are other conditions which
can affect the performance of the
transmitter, see Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) System on page 22
for additional information.
