Remote Vehicle Start
Your vehicle may have a remote start 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. See Climate Control System on
page 3-23 for additional information.
Laws in some local 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.
/ (Remote Vehicle Start): This button will be on the
RKE transmitter if you have remote start.
An increased range of operation is provided with the RKE
transmitter that has the remote vehicle start button. The
vehicle can be started from approximately 197 feet (60 m)
away. However, the operating range may be less while
the engine is running and you will need to be closer to
your vehicle to turn it off than you were to turn it on.
Do not use the remote start feature if your vehicle is low
on fuel. Your vehicle may run out of fuel.
