Intelligent Key button operation
light
The light blinks only when you push any
button on the Intelligent Key. The light
illumination only signifies that the Intelli-
gent Key has transmitted a signal. You
may look and/or listen to verify that the
vehicle has performed the intended op-
eration. If the light does not blink, your
battery may be too weak to communi-
cate to the vehicle. If this occurs, the
battery may need to be replaced.
For additional information regarding the
replacement of a battery, see “Intelligent
Key battery replacement” (P.8-20).

enclosed area such as a garage.
JVP0446XExample
The remote engine startbutton is on
the Intelligent Key if the vehicle has
remote engine start function. This func-
tion allows the engine to start from
outside the vehicle.
Some systems, such as the air conditioner
system, will turn on during a remote
engine 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 engine starters.
For example, some laws require a person
using remote engine start to have the
vehicle in view. Check local regulations for
any requirements.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-19
REMOTE ENGINE START (if so equipped)

3-20Pre-driving checks and adjustments
Other conditions may affect the remote
engine start function. See “Conditions the
remote engine start will not work” (P.3-21).
Other conditions can affect the perfor-
mance of the Intelligent Key transmitter.
See “Intelligent Key system” (P.3-7) for
additional information.
REMOTE ENGINE START OPERATING
RANGE
The remote engine start function can
only be used when the Intelligent Key is
within the specified operating range from
the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave
sources are present near the operating
location, the Intelligent Key operating
range becomes narrower, and the Intelli-
gent Key may not function properly.
The remote engine start operating range
is approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the
vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE ENGINE
To use the remote start function to start
the engine, perform the following:
1. If the doors are unlocked, push theLOCK
button to lock all doors.
2. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle. 3. Push the LOCK
button again.
4. Within 5 seconds push and hold the remote engine start
button until
the turn signal lights flash and the tail
lights illuminate. If the vehicle is not
within view, push and hold the remote
engine start
button for at least 2
seconds.
The following events will occur when the
engine starts:
. The front parking lights will turn on
and remain on as long as the engine is
running.
. The doors will be locked and the air
conditioner system may turn on.
. The engine will continue to run for
about 10 minutes. Repeat the steps to
extend the time for an additional 10
minutes. See “Extending engine run
time” (P.3-20).
Depress and hold the brake pedal, then
place the ignition switch in the ON posi-
tion before driving. For further instruc-
tions, see “Driving the vehicle” (P.5-19).
EXTENDING ENGINE RUN TIME
The remote engine start function can be
extended one time by performing the
steps listed in “Remote starting the en-
gine” (P.3-20). Run time will be calculated
as follows:
. The first 10 minute run time will start
when the remote engine start func-
tion is performed.
. The second 10 minutes will start im-
mediately when the remote engine
start function is performed. For exam-
ple, if the engine has 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
towards the two remote engine start
limit.
A maximum of two remote engine starts,
or a single start with an extension can be
used.
The vehicle needs to be driven at speeds
of 4 MPH (7 km/h) before the remote
engine start procedure can be used
again.

Close the fuel-filler door after refueling.
If you need to refuel from a portable fuel
container, use the funnel supplied with
your vehicle. (See “When refueling from a
portable fuel container” (P.3-30).)
CAUTION
.Do not attempt to open the flaps
on the fuel-filler opening using
any tool other than the fuel pump
nozzle.
. This fuel-filler opening is only
conformable to normal fuel pump
nozzles at gas stations. Using a
nozzle with a small diameter may
damage the opening and the fuel
system.
. If fuel is spilled on the vehicle
body, flush it away with water to
avoid paint damage.
WARNING
.Gasoline is extremely flammable
and highly explosive under cer-
tain conditions. You could be
burned or seriously injured if it is
misused or mishandled. Always stop engine and do not smoke or
allow open flames or sparks near
the vehicle when refueling.
. Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically. Contin-
ued refueling may cause fuel
overflow, resulting in fuel spray
and possibly a fire.
. Never pour fuel into the throttle
body to attempt to start your
vehicle.
. Do not fill a portable fuel contain-
er in the vehicle or trailer. Static
electricity can cause an explosion
of flammable liquid, vapor or gas
in any vehicle or trailer. To reduce
the risk of serious injury or death
when filling portable fuel contain-
ers:
— Always place the container on
the ground when filling.
— Do not use electronic devices when filling.
— Keep the pump nozzle in con- tact with the container while
you are filling it.
— Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable
liquid.
