Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your keyless
access transmitter should last about three years.
The battery is weak if the transmitter will not
work at the normal range in any location. If you
have to get close to your vehicle before the
transmitter works, it is probably time to change the
battery. The DIC may display KEY FOB
BATTERY LOW.
A weak battery may also cause the DIC to display
NO FOBS DETECTED when you try to start
the vehicle. If this happens, place the transmitter
in the center console storage area transmitter
pocket with the buttons facing to the front of the
vehicle. Then, with the vehicle in PARK (P)
or NEUTRAL (N), press the brake pedal and the
start button. SeeStarting the Engine on page 113,
for additional information about your vehicle’s
electronic keyless ignition with push button start.
Although this will start the vehicle, it is
recommended that you replace the transmitter
battery as soon as possible.Notice:When replacing the battery, use care
not to touch any of the circuitry. Static
from your body transferred to these surfaces
may damage the transmitter.
94

To replace the battery, do the following:
1. Depending on which keyless access
transmitter you have, Insert a at object with a
thin edge into the slot on the side or back
of the transmitter and separate the bottom half
from the top half.
2. Carefully pull the battery out of the transmitter.
3. Put the new battery in the transmitter,
positive (+) side down. Use a battery
type CR2032 or equivalent.4. Reassemble the transmitter. Make sure to put
it together so water will not get inside the
transmitter.
5. Test the transmitter.
Remote Vehicle Start
This feature allows you to start the engine from
outside the vehicle.
Before the remote vehicle start system can be
operated with the keyless access transmitter
it must be activated. The remote start system is
turned on through the vehicle personalization
system.
You can also program the remote vehicle start
system to start up the vehicle’s automatic climate
control system. If this feature is turned on, the
system monitors the outside temperature and turns
on the rear window defogger, front window
defogger, and heated or ventilated seats, if your
vehicle has them. See “Personal Settings
Menu” underVehicle Personalization on page 148.

2. Press the transmitter’s lock button, release it,
and then immediately press and hold the
transmitter’s remote start button for at least
three seconds or until the vehicle’s turn signal
lamps ash. The vehicle’s doors will be
locked.
When the vehicle starts, the parking lamps will
turn on and remain on while the vehicle is
running.
3. If it is the rst remote start since the vehicle
has been driven, repeat these steps, while
the engine is still running, to extend the engine
running time by 10 minutes. Remote start
can be extended one time.If the vehicle is left running it will automatically
shut off after 10 minutes unless a time extension
has been done. To manually shut off a remote
start, do any of the following:
Aim the keyless access transmitter at the
vehicle and press the remote start button until
the parking lamps turn off.
Turn on the hazard warning ashers.
Press the Acc. button (ignition switch). See

When you enter the vehicle during a remote start,
press the brake pedal and press the start
button on the keyless ignition switch to transition
from remote start operation to normal vehicle
operation.
Laws in some local communities may restrict the
use of remote starters. For example, 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.
96

Do not use the remote start feature if your vehicle
is low on fuel. Your vehicle may run out of fuel.
The remote start feature provides two separate
starts, each with 10 minutes of engine running. If
you press the lock button and then hold the
remote start button on the keyless access
transmitter again for at least three seconds before
the rst 10 minutes of engine running time has
expired, 10 minutes is added to the remaining
minutes. For example, if the remote start is
initiated again after ve minutes of the engine run
time, 10 minutes is added and you now have
15 minutes with the engine running. Once
two remote starts or 20 minutes of the engine
running have been provided, the vehicle must be
started using the keyless access with pushbutton
start feature, if the engine needs to be restarted.
SeeStarting the Engine on page 113for more
information regarding the keyless ignition.The remote start feature will not operate if any of
the following occur:
The check engine light is displayed. See
“Check Engine Light” underMalfunction
Indicator Lamp on page 252.
The valet lockout switch is on.
The keyless access transmitter is in the
vehicle.
The vehicle’s hood is open.
The vehicle personalization feature is not
enabled.
An unauthorized vehicle entry or a vehicle
theft was attempted.
Your keyless access 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, seeKeyless
Access System on page 87.
