This feature allows you to start the
engine from outside the vehicle by using
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) trans-
mitter. (Remote Vehicle Start transmitter
range is within approximately 200 feet of
the vehicle.)
After a remote start, the engine will run
for about 10 minutes before turning itself
off, but can be extended 10 minutes by
performing another remote start
sequence at any time. After two consec-
utive remote starts, no additional remote
starts are allowed until the vehicle has
been started with the ignition key.
The vehicle’s climate control system may
automatically heat or cool the vehicle
interior, depending on equipment, or will
turn on at the same setting as when the
vehicle was last turned off.
Starting the Vehicle
1. Aim the RKE transmitter at the
vehicle.
2. Press and release the (Lock)

When you enter the vehicle after a
