GENERAL INFORMATION ON
RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules and with Industry Canada
license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept
any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Note:
Changes or modifications not
expressively approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user's authority
to operate the equipment. The term IC before
the radio certification number only signifies
that Industry Canada technical specifications
were met.
The typical operating range for your
transmitter is approximately 33 feet (10
meters). Vehicles with the remote start
feature will have a greater range. One of the
following could cause a decrease in operating
range:
• weather conditions
• nearby radio towers
• structures around the vehicle
• other vehicles parked next to your vehicle Other short-distance radio transmitters, such
as amateur radios, medical equipment,
wireless headphones, remote controls and
alarm systems may operate on the same
frequency as your remote control. If other
transmitters are operating on those
frequencies, you may not be able to use your
remote control. Using your remote control
near some types of electronic equipment,
such as USB devices, computers or cell
phones can interfere with remote operation.
Operating your remote control near metal or
metallic-finished purses, bags or clothing can
interfere with remote operation. You can lock
and unlock the doors with the key.
Note:
Make sure to lock your vehicle before
leaving it unattended.
Note: If you are in range, the remote control
will operate if you press any button
unintentionally. Intelligent Access
The system uses a radio frequency signal to
communicate with your vehicle and authorize
your vehicle to unlock when one of the
following conditions are met:
•
You touch the inside of any exterior door
handle within 3 ft (1 m) proximity of an
intelligent access key.
• You press the luggage compartment
button.
• You press a button on the transmitter.
If excessive radio frequency interference is
present in the area or if the transmitter
battery is low, you may need to mechanically
unlock your door. You can use the mechanical
key blade in your intelligent access key to
open the driver door in this situation. See
Remote Control
(page 47).

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 to lock all the doors.
2. Press the remote start button twice. The exterior lamps will flash twice.
The horn will sound if the system fails to
start, unless quiet start is on. Quiet start will
run the blower fan at a slower speed to
reduce noise. It can be switched on or off in
the information display. See General
Information (page 89). Note:
If the vehicle has been remote started
with an integrated keyhead transmitter, you
must switch the ignition on before driving your
vehicle. With an intelligent access transmitter,
you must press the
START/STOP button on
the instrument panel once while applying the
brake pedal before driving your vehicle.
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.
You may have to be closer to the
vehicle than when starting due to ground
reflection and the added noise of the running
vehicle.
You can disable or enable the remote start
system through the information display. See
General Information
(page 89).
Memory Feature
You can recall the positions of the memory
seat, outside mirrors, steering column and
power pedal positions (if equipped) with your
intelligent access key if it is linked to a pre-set
position.
See Memory Function (page 114).
REPLACING A LOST KEY OR
REMOTE CONTROL
Replacement keys or remote controls can be
purchased from an authorized dealer.
Authorized dealers can program remote
controls for your vehicle. See
Passive
Anti-Theft System (page 63).

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNINGS
Extended idling at high engine speeds
can produce very high temperatures in
the engine and exhaust system,
creating the risk of fire or other damage. Do not park, idle or drive your vehicle
on dry grass or other dry ground cover.
The emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust system,
creating the risk of fire. Do not start the engine in a closed
garage or in other enclosed areas.
Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always
open the garage door before you start the
engine. If you smell exhaust fumes inside your
vehicle, have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer immediately. Do
not drive your vehicle if you smell exhaust
fumes. If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle
may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics for approximately 5 miles (8
kilometers) after you reconnect it. This is
because the engine management system
must realign itself with the engine. You can
disregard any unusual driving characteristics
during this period.
The powertrain control system meets all
Canadian interference-causing equipment
standard requirements regulating the impulse
electrical field or radio noise.
When you start the engine, avoid pressing
the accelerator pedal before and during
operation. Only use the accelerator pedal
when you have difficulty starting the engine.
KEYLESS STARTING
Note:
The keyless starting system may not
function if the key is close to metal objects or
electronic devices such as cellular phones.
Note: A valid key must be located inside your
vehicle to switch the ignition on and start the
engine. Note:
When locking your vehicle, any remote
controls left inside the vehicle may become
disabled. A message may appear in the
information display indicating that there is no
key detected if you try to start the engine.
Press the unlock button on the remote control
to enable it, and then start the engine.
Ignition Modes Off: Turns the ignition off.

MP3 and WMA Track and Folder
Structure
Audio systems capable of recognizing and
playing MP3 and WMA individual tracks and
folder structures work as follows:
•
There are two different modes for MP3
and WMA disc playback: MP3 and WMA
track mode (system default) and MP3
and WMA folder mode.
• MP3 and WMA track mode ignores any
folder structure on the MP3 and WMA
disc. The player numbers each MP3 and
WMA track on the disc (noted by the MP3
or WMA file extension) from T001 to a
maximum of T255. The maximum
number of playable MP3 and WMA files
may be less depending on the structure
of the CD and exact model of radio
present. •
MP3 and WMA folder mode represents a
folder structure consisting of one level of
folders. The CD player numbers all MP3
and WMA tracks on the disc (noted by
the MP3 or WMA file extension) and all
folders containing MP3 and WMA files,
from F001 (folder) T001 (track) to F253
T255.
• Creating discs with only one level of
folders helps with navigation through the
disc files.
If you are burning your own MP3 and WMA
discs, it is important to understand how the
system reads the structures you create. While
various files may be present (files with
extensions other than MP3 and WMA), only
files with the MP3 and WMA extension are
played; other files are ignored by the system.
This enables you to use the same MP3 and
WMA disc for a variety of tasks on your work
computer, home computer and your
in-vehicle system. In track mode, the system displays and plays
the structure as if it were only one level deep
(all MP3 and WMA files play, regardless of
being in a specific folder). In folder mode, the
system only plays the MP3 and WMA files in
the current folder.
AUDIO UNIT - VEHICLES WITH:
