Remote Starting the Vehicle

Note:

Each button press must be done within three seconds of each

other. The vehicle will not remote start if this sequence is not followed
and the horn will not chirp.

The label on your transmitter
details the starting procedure. To
remote start the vehicle:

1. Press the lock button to lock all the doors.

2. Press the remote start button twice. The exterior lamps will flash
twice.

The horn will chirp if the system fails to start (unless quiet start is on).
Quiet start will run the blower fan at a slower speed to reduce noise. It
can be switched on or off. Refer to the

chapter.

If the vehicle has been remote started and is equipped with an

button on the instrument panel once while

The parking lamps will remain on and the vehicle will run for 5, 10, or
15 minutes, depending on the setting. Refer to the
