RUN position.
To Enter Remote Start
Push and release the remote start button on
the key fob twice within five seconds. The
vehicle doors will lock, the parking lights will
flash and the horn will chirp twice (if pro-
grammed). Then, the engine will start and the
vehicle will remain in the remote start mode
for a 15-minute cycle.NOTE:
• The park lamps will turn on and remain on
during remote start mode.
• For security, power window operation is
disabled when the vehicle is in the remote
start mode.
• The engine can be started two consecutive
times (two 15-minute cycles) with the key
fob. However, the ignition switch must be
cycled to the ON/RUN position before you
can repeat the start sequence for a third
cycle.
Remote start will also cancel if any of the
following occur:
• The engine stalls or RPM exceeds 2500.
• Any engine warning lamps come on.
• The hood is opened.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
— IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle security alarm monitors the ve-
hicle doors, swing gate, and ignition for un-
authorized operation. While the vehicle secu-
rity alarm is armed, interior switches for door
locks are disabled. The vehicle security alarm
provides both audible and visible signals
when alarming. The horn will sound, the
headlights will turn on, the park lamps and/or
turn signals will flash repeatedly for three
minutes. If the disturbance is still present
(driver's door, passenger door, other doors,
ignition) after three minutes, the headlights,
park lamps and/or turn signals will flash for
an additional 15 minutes.
Rearming The System
If something triggers the alarm, and no action
is taken to disarm it, the vehicle security
alarm will turn off the horn after three min-
utes, turn off all of the visual signals after
15 minutes, and then the vehicle security
alarm will rearm itself.
To Arm The System
The vehicle security alarm will set when you
use the Remote Keyless Entry key fob to lock
the doors and swing gate, or when you use the
power door lock switch while the door is
open. After all the doors are locked and
closed, the vehicle security light (located on
the instrument cluster) will flash rapidly for
about 16 seconds to signal that the vehicle
security alarm is arming. During this 16-
second arming period, opening any door or
the swing gate will cancel the arming. If the
vehicle security alarm is successfully set, the
vehicle security light will flash at a slower
rate to indicate the vehicle security alarm is
armed.
To Disarm The System
To disarm the vehicle security alarm, you will
need to push the unlock button on the key
fob, or turn the ignition switch to the ON/
RUN position. If something has triggered the
vehicle security alarm in your absence, the
horn will sound three times, and the exterior
lights blink three times when you unlock the
doors. Check the vehicle for tampering.The vehicle security alarm is designed to
protect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the vehicle security alarm
will arm unexpectedly. If you remain in the
vehicle and lock the doors with the key fob,
once the vehicle security alarm is armed
(after 16 seconds), when you pull the door
handle to exit, the alarm will sound. If this
occurs, push the unlock button on the key fob
to disarm the vehicle security alarm. You may
also accidentally disarm the vehicle security
alarm by unlocking the driver's door with the
key and then locking it. The door will be
locked but the vehicle security alarm will not
arm.
NOTE:
• Unlocking the doors with the manual door
lock plungers or the driver's door lock cyl-
inder will not disarm the vehicle security
alarm.
• When the vehicle security alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.

ther information)
• Oil Change Required (with a single chime)
• ECO (Fuel Saver Indicator) — if equipped
Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) — If Equipped
The Gear Shift Indicator (GSI) system is en-
abled on vehicles with a manual transmis-
sion, or when a vehicle with an automatic
transmission is in manual shift mode. The
GSI provides the driver with a visual indica-
tion when the recommended gear shift point
has been reached. This indication notifies
the driver that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption. When the up
shift indicator is shown on the display, the
GSI is advising the driver to engage a higher
gear. When the down shift indicator is shown
on the display, the GSI is advising the driver
to engage a lower gear.
The GSI indicator remains illuminated until
the driver changes gear, or the driving condi-
tions return to a situation where changing gear
is not required to improve fuel consumption.
Oil Change Required
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
change indicator system. The “Oil Change
Required” message will display in the instru-
ment cluster display for approximately
10 seconds after a single chime has sounded
to indicate the next scheduled oil change
interval. The engine oil change indicator sys-
tem is duty cycle based, which means the
engine oil change interval may fluctuate de-
pendent upon your personal driving style.
Unless reset, this message will continue to
display each time you turn the ignition switch
to the ON position. To turn off the message
temporarily, push and release theMENUbut-
ton. To reset the oil change indicator system
(after performing the scheduled mainte-
nance), perform the following procedure:
