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

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.

(Transmitter range is within approxi-
mately 200 feet of the vehicle.)

(Remote Start) button for about four
seconds.When the parking lamps
flash, release the button. The engine

time extension. Only two consecutive
remote starts are allowed.
When you enter the vehicle after a
remote start, the key must be inserted
