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 does not work if:
•
The ignition is on.
• The alarm system is triggered.
• You switch off the feature in the
information display. See Information

follow this sequence, your vehicle does not
start remotely, the direction indicators do
not flash twice and the horn does not sound. To remote start your vehicle:
1. Press the lock button.
2. Press the remote start button twice.
The exterior lamps flash twice.
The horn sounds if the system fails to start.
The power windows do not work during

depending on the setting. See
Information Displays
(page 105).
Extending the Vehicle Run 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 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 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 extend
the remote start up to a maximum of 35
minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before remote
starting after a vehicle shutdown.
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 to remotely switch off your
vehicle after remote starting. This is due
to the added noise of your running vehicle.
You can disable or enable the remote start
system through the information display.
