The provided document is an Owner's Guide for the Toyota Remote Engine Start (RES) system, identified as TVIP V4 and applicable to 2008- Sequoia models.
The Toyota Remote Engine Start (RES) system allows users to start their vehicle's engine from outside using the existing keyless entry remote, eliminating the need for an additional remote. This system is designed to enhance comfort and convenience by allowing the vehicle's cabin to be pre-conditioned to a desired temperature before entry. It can activate the heater or air conditioner based on preset temperature controls and, in cold weather, can also activate the defroster to clear the windshield.
A key safety feature of the RES system is its automatic engine shutdown mechanism. The engine will shut off if it detects any attempt to enter or move the vehicle after a remote start. This ensures the safety of occupants and those near the vehicle. The system is designed for vehicles with automatic transmissions only and cannot be used with manual transmission models.
