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.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, do not
use the remote start feature. The
vehicle may run out of fuel.
The RKE transmitter range may be
less while the vehicle is running.
Other conditions can affect the
performance of the transmitter; see
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System on page 2-4 for additional
information.
Starting the Vehicle Using Remote
Start
To start the engine using the remote
start feature:
1. Aim the transmitter at the vehicle
and press and release
Q on the
transmitter.
2. Press and hold
/ for at least
four seconds or until the
vehicle's turn signal lamps flash.
The parking lamps will turn on
and remain on as long as the
engine is running. The vehicle's
doors will be locked.
3. After entering the vehicle during
a remote start, press the brake
pedal and turn the ignition to
ON/RUN to drive the vehicle.
After a remote start, the engine
will automatically shut off after
10 minutes unless a time
extension has been done or the
ignition has been turned to
ON/RUN.
Extending Engine Run Time
To extend the engine run time by
10 minutes, repeat Steps 1 and 2
while the engine is still running.
The engine run time can only be
extended if it is the first remote start
since the vehicle has been driven.
Remote start can be extended
one time.
If the remote start procedure is used
again before the first 10-minute
time frame has ended, the first
10 minutes will immediately expire
and the second 10-minute time
frame will start.
For example, if
Q and then / are
pressed again after the vehicle has
been running for five minutes,
10 minutes are added, allowing
the engine to run for a total of
15 minutes.
A maximum of two remote starts are
allowed between ignition cycles.
After the vehicle's engine has been
started two times using the remote
start button, the ignition must be
turned on and then back off before
the remote start procedure can be
used again.
