10 minutes, repeat Steps 1 though 3
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.

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.

then the remote start buttons 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 or
remote start attempts are allowed
between ignition cycles.
After the vehicle's engine has been
started two times using the remote

vehicle start system enabled. The
system may be enabled or disabled
through the DIC if the vehicle has
DIC buttons. See “REMOTE
START” underVehicle
Personalization (With DIC Buttons)
