The horn sounds if the system fails to start,
unless quiet start is on. Quiet start runs the
blower fan at a slower speed to reduce
noise. You can switch it on or off in the
information display. See General
Information (page 89).
Note: If you remote start your vehicle with
an intelligent access transmitter, you must
press the push button ignition switch on the
instrument panel once while applying the
brake pedal before driving your vehicle.
The power windows do not work during
remote start and the radio does not turn
on automatically.
The parking lamps remain on and your
vehicle runs for 5, 10 or 15 minutes,
depending on the setting.
Extending the Engine Running Time
To extend the engine running time duration
of your vehicle during remote start, repeat
steps 1 and 2 while the engine is running. If
the duration is set to 10 minutes, the
duration extends by another 10 minutes.
For example, if your vehicle had been
running from the first remote start for 5
minutes, your vehicle continues to run now
for a total of 20 minutes. You can only
extend the remote start once. You may be
able to extend the engine running time up
to a maximum of 30 minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before remote
starting after the engine stops running.
Turning Your Vehicle Off After Remote
Starting Press the button once. The
parking lamps turn off.
You may have to be closer to
your vehicle than when starting due to
ground reflection and the added noise of
your running vehicle.
You can turn the remote start system on
or off using the information display. See
General Information
(page 89). Memory Feature
(If Equipped)
You can use the remote control to recall
memory positions.
Press the unlock button on a linked remote
control to recall memory positions. If you
turn on easy entry and exit, the seat moves
to the easy entry position. The seat moves
to the driver memory position when you
switch the ignition on.

Remote Control

Memory Function (page 117).
REPLACING A LOST KEY OR
