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 170for
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):If your vehicle has
the remote vehicle start feature, the remote
keyless entry transmitter will have a button with
this symbol on it.
An increased range of operation is provided with
the remote keyless entry 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.
To start the engine using the remote start feature,
do the following:
1. Aim the remote keyless entry transmitter at
the vehicle.
2. Press and release the transmitter’s lock button,
then immediately press and hold the remote
vehicle start button for four seconds or until the
vehicle’s turn signal lamps ash. The vehicle’s
doors will be locked.
3. When the vehicle’s engine starts, the parking
lamps will turn on and remain on while the
engine is running.
After a remote start, the engine will automatically
shut off after 10 minutes unless a time extension
has been done or the vehicle’s key is inserted into
the ignition switch and turned to RUN.
The maximum number of remote starts between
ignition cycles with the key is two.
If the remote start procedure is used again before
the rst 10 minute time frame has ended, the
rst 10 minutes will immediately expire and
the second 10 minute time frame will start.

Power Door Locks
The power door lock
switches are located on
the driver’s and front
passenger’s door
next to the door handle.
Press the top of the switch to unlock the doors.
Press the bottom of the switch to lock the doors.
Delayed Locking
This feature will delay the actual locking of the
doors and liftgate when the power door lock switch
or remote keyless entry transmitter is used to
lock the vehicle.
If any door is open when locking the vehicle,
three chimes will sound signaling that the delayed
locking feature is active. Five seconds after the
last door is closed, all of the doors and liftgate will
lock. The turn signal lamps will ash to indicate
that the doors have been locked. To cancel
the delay and lock the doors immediately, press
the lock button a second time.
If the key is in the ignition this feature will not lock
the doors.
If your vehicle has a Driver Information
Center (DIC), you can disable this function. See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 200.

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
The turn signal has two upward (for right) and
two downward (for left) positions. These positions
allow you to signal a turn or a lane change.
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or

until the arrow starts to ash. Hold it there until you
complete your lane change. The lever will return
by itself when you release it.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrows
ash rapidly, a signal bulb may be burned out and
other drivers will not see your turn signal. If a bulb is
burned out, replace it to help avoid an accident.
If the arrows do not go on at all when you signal a
turn, check the fuse. SeeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 381.
