WARNING
To avoid risk of injury or death, do not
use the remote engine start function
when the vehicle is in an enclosed area
such as a garage.
JVP0446X
The remote engine startbutton is on the
Intelligent Key if the vehicle has remote engine
start function. This function allows the engine to
start from outside the vehicle.
Some systems, such as the air conditioner
system, will turn on during a remote start, if the
system was on the last time the ignition switch
was turned off.
Laws in some local communities may restrict the
use of remote starters. For example, some laws
require a person using remote start to have the
vehicle in view. Check local regulations for any
requirements.
Other conditions may affect the remote engine
start function. See “Conditions the remoteengine start will not work” (P.3-23) .

operating range becomes narrower, and the
Intelligent Key may not function properly.
The remote engine start operating range is
approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the vehicle.

been running for 5 minutes, and 10 minutes
are added, the engine will run for a total of
15 minutes..Extending engine run time will count to-
wards the two remote start limit.
