when the Remote Engine Start feature is
used:
• Vehicles with an automatic climate control system may default to either a heating or
cooling mode depending on outside and
cabin temperatures. For additional infor-
mation, see “Remote Engine Start with In-
telligent Climate Control” in the (P. 4-30). Laws in some local communities may restrict
or prohibit the use of Remote Engine Start, or
the amount of time a parked vehicle engine
may idle. For example, some laws require a
person using Remote Engine Start to have
the vehicle in view or may restrict idling time
except in freezing temperatures. Check local
regulations for any requirements.
Other conditions may affect the function of
the Remote Engine Start feature. For addi-
tional information, see “Conditions the Re-
mote Engine Start will not work” (P. 3-20).

hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows or inadvertent
door lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the assistance
of others or pets unattended in your ve-
hicle. Additionally, the temperature in-
side a closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to cause a
significant risk of injury or death to
people and pets.
