IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Caution
Do not start the engine in an enclosed area (such
as a garage or indoor parking lot) where too much
exhaust may accumulate and create a hazardous
environment with potential for CO poisoning.
Caution
Do not start the engine if a person or pet is present
in or near the vehicle. The windows and power seats
can accidentally be switched on, leading to injury.
Caution
Do not start the engine near dry foliage, paper, or
other flammable substances. The exhaust pipe and
exhaust emissions can create a fire hazard at high
temperatures.
Caution
Do not use Smart Engine Start from a distance where
the vehicle cannot be seen. Children or small animals
should not be near the vehicle.
Caution
The general operating temperature of Smart Engine
Start under ideal conditions is above -22°F (-30°C).
Due to multiple vehicle variables, this operating
temperature may fluctuate.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Caution
Always shut off the windshield wipers and radio after
parking. If left on, such components may be damaged
by Smart Engine Start in extremely cold weather.
Check that all vehicle windows are closed and all
doors locked after parking.
Caution
Do not start the engine with a car cover still on the
vehicle. The exhaust pipe and exhaust emissions are
capable of starting a fire at high temperatures.
Caution
Avoid using Smart Engine Start when the fuel level is
low. You may run out of fuel and be unable to restart
the engine.
Caution
To help reduce the risk of injury during engine service,
Smart Engine Start will not function while the hood is
open.
