Remote Vehicle Start
(if equipped)
This feature allows you to start the
engine from outside the vehicle by using
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) trans-
mitter. The remote start capability must
be turned on using the Driver Information
Center.
The vehicle’s automatic climate control
system (if equipped) will default to a
heating or cooling mode based on
outside temperature, and the manual
climate control system will turn on at the
same setting as when the vehicle was
last turned off.
Starting the Vehicle
To remote-start the vehicle:
1. Aim the RKE transmitter at the
vehicle. (Transmitter range is within
approximately 195 feet of the vehicle.)
2. Press and release the (Lock)
button on the transmitter.
3. Immediately press and hold the
(Remote Start) button for about four
seconds. When the vehicle starts, the
parking lamps will light and remain on
while the engine is running. The enginewill continue running for 10 minutes.
4. Repeat these steps for a 10-minute
time extension. Only two consecutive
remote starts are allowed.
When you enter the vehicle after a
remote start, the key must be inserted in
the ignition and turned to the On position
before driving.
Note:The Remote Vehicle Start feature
will not operate if the key is in the igni-
tion, the hood or liftgate is open, or the
Check Engine light is illuminated on the
instrument panel cluster.
Rear View Camera (if equipped)
The rear view camera displays a view
of the area behind the vehicle on the
navigation system screen when the
vehicle is shifted into Reverse. The rear
park assist indicators will appear on the
screen, indicating the distance and posi-
tion of an object behind the vehicle.
