GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 23
TO EXIT REMOTE START MODE
To drive the vehicle after a Remote Start, unlock
the doors using the key fob or Passive Entry and
disarm the Vehicle Security system (if equipped).
Then, prior to the end of the 15
minute cycle, press
the
brake pedal and push and release the START/
STOP ignition button.
The Remote Start system will turn the engine off
with
another push and release of the Remote Start
button on the key fob, or if the engine is allowed to
run for the entire 15
minute cycle. Once the
igni
tion is placed in the ON/RUN position, the
climate controls will resume the previously set
operations (temperature, blower control, etc.).
NOTE:
To avoid unintentional shutdowns, the system
will disable for two seconds after receiving a
valid Remote Start request.
For vehicles equipped with the Keyless Enter ‘n
Go™ — Passive Entry feature, the message
“Remote Start Active — Push Start Button” will
display in the instrument cluster display until
you push the START/STOP ignition button.

colorless. Carbon Monoxide 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
