When you enter the vehicle during a remote start, and
the engine is still running, turn the key to the RUN
position to drive the vehicle. If the vehicle is left running
it will automatically shut off after 10 minutes unless a
time extension has been done.
To manually shut off a remote start, do any of the
following:
•
Aim the remote keyless entry transmitter at the
vehicle and press the remote start button until
the parking lamps turn off.
•
Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
•
Turn the ignition switch on and then off.
The vehicle can be started remotely two separate times
between driving sequences. The engine will run for
10 minutes after each remote start.
Or, you can extend the engine run time by another
10 minutes within the first 10 minute remote start time
frame, and before the engine stops.
For example, if the lock button and then the remote
start buttons are pressed again after the vehicle
has been running for five minutes, 10 minutes are
added, allowing the engine to run for 15 minutes.
The additional 10 minutes are considered a second
remote vehicle start.
Once two remote starts, or a single remote start with
one time extension have been done, the vehicle must be
started with the key.
After the key is removed from the ignition, another
remote start can be performed.
The vehicle cannot be started remotely if the key is in
the ignition, the hood is not closed, or if there is an
emission control system malfunction.
Remote Start Ready
If your vehicle does not have the remote vehicle start
feature, it may have the remote start ready feature. This
feature allows your dealer to add the manufacturer’s
remote vehicle start feature.
If your vehicle has the remote start ready feature, your
remote keyless entry transmitter will have extended
range that will allow you to lock or unlock your vehicle
from approximately 195 feet (60 m) away.
See your dealer if you would like to add the
manufacturer’s remote vehicle start feature to your
vehicle.
