NOTE:
•
With Remote Start, the vehicle will only run for
15 minutes.
•
Remote Start can only be used twice.
•
If an engine fault is present or fuel level is low, the
vehicle will start and then shut down in 10 seconds.
•
The parking lights will turn on and remain on during
Remote Start mode.
•
For security, power window and power sunroof
(if equipped) operations are disabled when the
vehicle is in Remote Start mode.
•
The ignition must be placed in the ON/RUN position
before the Remote Start sequence can be repeated
for a third cycle.
All of the following conditions must be met before the
vehicle will remote start:
•
Gear selector in PARK
•
Doors closed
•
Hood closed
•
Liftgate closed
•
Hazard switch off
•
Brake switch inactive (brake pedal not pressed)
•
12 Volt battery at an acceptable charge level
•
Key fob Panic button not pushed
•
System not disabled from previous Remote Start
event
•
Vehicle Security system indicator flashing
•
Ignition in the OFF position
•
Fuel level meets minimum requirement
•
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is off while vehicle
is in propulsion system active
•
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning Light is not
illuminated
•
Electric Vehicle Service Light is not illuminated
WARNING!
•
Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or
confined area. Exhaust gas contains carbon mon-
oxide which is odorless and colorless. Carbon mon-
oxide is poisonous and can cause serious injury or
death when inhaled.
•
Keep key fobs away from children. Operation of the
Remote Start system, windows, door locks or other
controls could cause serious injury or death.
TO EXIT REMOTE START MODE
Push and release the Remote Start button one time or
allow the Remote Start cycle to complete the entire
15 minute cycle.
In addition, the ignition can be cycled to the RUN (Pre-
Propulsion System Active) position by pressing the igni-
tion button with the key fob in the vehicle, and then
pushing the ignition button one more time to place the
ignition in the OFF position.
NOTE:
To avoid unintentional shutdowns, the system will tem-
porarily disable for two seconds after receiving a valid
Remote Start request.
SCHEDULED CABIN CONDITIONING
(SCC)
This feature allows the driver to pre-condition (warm up
or cool down) the passenger cabin based on a planned
departure time. The target temperature is preset to the
same values used by the Remote Start feature. Unlike
Remote Start, the driver does not need to initiate the
cabin conditioning by pushing the Remote Start button,
instead, a programmed departure time will be used.
Also, all scheduled cabin conditioning will be powered
by the vehicle’s high voltage battery working in conjunc-
tion with any EVSE connected to the vehicle. Unlike
Remote Start, in SCC the vehicle’s gas engine will not
start to provide power or heat for cabin conditioning.
In order to conserve the vehicle’s high voltage battery
power, the driver can choose between allowing the bat-
tery to be drained of power down to <1%, or to stop the
SCC when the high voltage battery has been depleted
to 25% State Of Charge (SOC). The battery percentages
are displayed in the instrument cluster display.
A maximum of three independent schedule event tim-
ers are available for use by the SCC feature and Sched-
uled Charging feature for charging the high voltage bat-
tery. The timers may be used in any combination for
SCC and Scheduled Charging, but only three total tim-
ers are available.
The SCC event times are used to wake up the vehicle so
that the Climate Control system can condition the pas-
senger cabin prior to the scheduled departure time.
Based on vehicle operating conditions, ambient tem-
perature, and the next programmed departure time, the
vehicle will determine when to begin cabin conditioning.
Cabin conditioning can begin up to 30 minutes prior to
the scheduled departure time, provided the stated high
voltage battery conditions are met.
