Vehicles with automatic climate control can
be configured to operate when the vehicle
is remote started. See Automatic Climate
Control (page 136). A manual climate control
system will run at the setting it was set to
when you switched the vehicle off.
Many states and provinces have restrictions
for the use of remote start. Check your local
and state or provincial laws for specific
requirements regarding remote start
systems.
The remote start system will not work if:
• The ignition is on.
• The alarm system is triggered.
• You disable the feature.
• The hood is open.
• The transmission is not in
P.
• The vehicle battery voltage is too low.
• The service engine soon light is on. Remote Starting the Vehicle
Note:
You must press each button within
three seconds of each other. Your vehicle
will not remote start if you do not follow this
sequence. The tag with your transmitter details the
starting procedure.
To remote start your vehicle:
1. Press the lock button.
2.
Press the remote start button twice. The
exterior lamps will flash twice.
The horn will sound if the system fails to start.
See
General Information (page 112).
The power windows will not work during the
remote start and the radio will not turn on
automatically. The parking lamps will remain on and the
vehicle will run for 5, 10, or 15 minutes,
depending on the setting.
Extending the Vehicle Run Time
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 with the vehicle still
running to extend the run time for another
remote start duration. If you programmed the
duration to last 10 minutes, the second 10
minutes will begin after what is left of the first
activation time. For example, if the vehicle
had been running from the first remote start
for five minutes, the vehicle will continue to
run now for a total of 15 minutes. You can
extend the remote start up to a maximum of
35 minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before remote
starting after a vehicle shutdown.
Turning the Vehicle Off After Remote
Starting
Press the button once. The parking
lamps will turn off.

Driver temperature controls: Press the control to increase or decrease the air temperature for the d\
river side of the vehicle. This
control also adjusts the passenger side temperature when dual zone opera\
tion is off.
A
Fan speed control:
Press the control to increase or decrease the volume of air circulated \
in your vehicle.
B
Passenger temperature controls:
Press the control to increase or decrease the air temperature for the p\
assenger side of the
vehicle.
C
MAX A/C: Press the control to maximize cooling. The driver and passenger tempera\
tures are set to LO, recirculated air flows through
the instrument panel air vents, the air conditioning automatically turns\
on and the fan automatically adjusts to the highest speed.
D
A/C:
Press the control to operate the air conditioning compressor. Use A/C with recirculated air to improve cooling performance
and efficiency. Note: In certain conditions, such as when using MAX defrost, the air conditio\
ning compressor may continue to
operate even though the A/C control is off.
E
Recirculated air:
Press the control to switch between outside air and recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the air
currently in the passenger compartment recirculates. This may reduce the\
time needed to cool the interior (when used with A/C)
and may reduce unwanted odors from entering your vehicle. To reduce the possibility of fogging, recirculated air may turn off
automatically or the system may prevent you from switching the feature o\
n in all airflow modes except
MAX A/C.
F
Heated passenger seat control:
Press the control to operate the heated seat. See Heated Seats (page 147).
G
Ventilated passenger seat control:
Press the control to operate the ventilated seat. See Climate Controlled Seats (page 148).
H
DUAL:
Press the control once to switch on the feature. When engaged, the feature allows the passenger to set a temperature th\
at
is independent from the driver setting. Press the control a second time \
to switch off the feature. The passenger setting automatically
links with the driver setting.
Note: The DUAL indicator automatically illuminates when adjusting the passenger's temperature.
I
AUTO:
Press the control to switch on the fully automatic operation. Select th\
e desired temperature using the temperature control.
The system automatically determines fan speed, air distribution, air con\
ditioning operation, and outside or recirculated air to heat
or cool the vehicle to reach and maintain your desired temperature.
Note: You can also use the AUTO control to link the passenger's
temperature to the driver's temperature by pressing and holding the AUTO control for more than two seconds.

Press the control to switch on to distribute air through the windshield\
defroster vents and de-mister vents. You can also
use this setting to defog and clear the windshield of a thin covering of\
ice.
N

Switches the heated rear window on and off. See Heated Windows and Mirrors (page 139).
O
HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: You may feel a small amount of air
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on. Note:
Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield.
Note: To improve the time to reach comfort
in hot weather, drive with the windows
slightly open for 2-3 minutes after start-up
or until your vehicle airs out. Automatic Climate Control
Note:
Adjusting the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold is not
necessary. The system automatically adjusts
to heat or cool the cabin to your selected
temperature as quickly as possible. For the
system to function efficiently, the instrument
panel and side air vents should be fully
open.
Note: If you select
AUTO during cold outside
temperatures, the system directs airflow to
the windshield and side window vents. In
addition, the fan may run at a slower speed
until the engine warms up.
