Remote Starting the Engine
Note:Each button press must be done within three seconds of each
other. The vehicle will not remote start if this sequence is not followed
and the horn will not chirp.
The label on your transmitter details
the starting procedure. To remote

2. Press the remote start button twice. The exterior lamps will flash
twice.
The horn will chirp if the system fails to start (unless quiet start is on).

can be switched on or off. Refer to theInformation Displayschapter.
Note:If the vehicle has been remote started you must press the
START/STOP button on the instrument panel once while applying the
brake pedal before driving the vehicle.
The power windows will be inhibited during the remote start and the

The parking lamps will remain on and the engine will run for 5, 10, or
15 minutes, depending on the setting. Refer to theInformation Displays
chapter to select the duration of the remote start system.
