use the same words, CAUTION or NOTICE.

To start the vehicle using the remote start feature,
do the following:
1. Aim the transmitter at the vehicle.
2. Press and release the transmitter’s lock
button, then immediately press and hold
the transmitter’s remote start button until the
turn signal lights ash or if the vehicle’s

The vehicle’s doors will lock. Pressing the
remote start button again after the vehicle has
started will turn off the ignition.
When the vehicle starts, the parking lamps will
turn on and remain on while the vehicle is
running.
3. If it is the rst remote start since the vehicle
has been driven, repeat these steps, while

running time by 10 minutes. Remote start
can be extended one time.
After entering the vehicle during a remote start,
insert and turn the key to RUN to drive the vehicle.
If the vehicle is left running it will automatically

Turn the ignition switch on and then off.
The remote vehicle start feature provides two
separate starts, each with 10 minutes of engine
running, or it provides one start with 10 minutes of
engine running that may be extended 10 more
minutes. If you press and release the transmitter
lock button and then press and hold the remote
start button on the RKE transmitter again before the
rst 10 minutes of engine running time has expired,
10 minutes are added to the remaining minutes. For
example, if the lock button and then the remote
start buttons are pressed again after ve minutes of
the engine run time, 10 minutes are added and you
now have 15 minutes of engine running. The added
ten minutes are considered a second remote
vehicle start.
Once two remote starts or a single start with a
time extension have been used, the vehicle must
be started with the ignition key before you can
use the remote start feature again.

The theft-deterrent system will not arm if you lock
the doors with a key or use the manual door
lock. It activates only if you use a power door lock
with the door open or the RKE transmitter.
To avoid activating the alarm by accident:
Lock the vehicle with the door key or the
manual door lock after the doors are closed.
Always unlock a door with a key or use the
RKE transmitter system. Pressing the unlock
button on the RKE transmitter disables
the theft-deterrent system. Unlocking a door
any other way will activate the alarm when
a door or the trunk is opened.
If you activate the alarm by accident, unlock the
driver’s door with your key. You can also turn
off the alarm by using the unlock button on
the RKE transmitter system, or by starting the car
with a valid key.
Changes or modications made to this system by
other than an authorized service facility could
void authorization to use the theft system.
Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the
window, then get out of the vehicle, keeping
the door open.
2. From outside of the vehicle, with the door
open, lock the vehicle using the power door
lock or the RKE system and close the
door. Wait 30 seconds until the security lamp
goes off.
3. Reach in and unlock the door using the
manual lock and open the door. The horn
will sound and the hazard lights will ash.
You can turn off the alarm by unlocking the driver’s
door with your key, using the unlock button on
the RKE transmitter or by starting the car with a
valid key.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, check
to see if the horn works. The horn fuse may be
blown. To replace the fuse, seeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 452. If the fuse does not
need to be replaced, you may need to have your
vehicle serviced.
To reduce the possibility of theft, always arm the
theft-deterrent system when leaving your vehicle.

Ignition Positions
With the ignition key in the ignition, the key can be
turned to four different positions:
Notice:Using a tool to force the key from the
ignition switch could cause damage or
break the key. Use the correct key and turn the
key only with your hand. Make sure the key
is in all the way. If none of this works,
then your vehicle needs service.A (OFF):This is the only position in which the
ignition key can be inserted or removed. This
position locks the ignition and transaxle. It is a
theft-deterrent feature.
B (ACCESSORY):This position lets the radio and
windshield wipers operate while the engine is
off. To use ACCESSORY, turn the key clockwise.
C (RUN):This position is where the key returns
to after the vehicle is started. This position displays
some of the warning and indicator lights.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key
in the ACCESSORY or RUN position with the
engine off. You may not be able to start your
vehicle if the battery is allowed to drain for
an extended period of time.
D (START):This position starts the engine.
A warning chime will sound and the Driver
Information Center (DIC) will display DRIVER

the ignition is in OFF, ACCESSORY and the
key is in the ignition. SeeDIC Warnings
and Messages on page 246for more information.
