If your RKE transmitter fails to operate from a normal

distance, check for these two conditions:
1. A weak battery in the transmitter. The expected life of

the battery is a minimum of three years.

2. Closeness to a radio transmitter such as a radio station

tower, airport transmitter, and some mobile or CB

radios.

REMOTE STARTING SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED

This system uses the Remote Keyless Entry

(RKE) transmitter to start the engine conve-

niently from outside the vehicle while still

maintaining security. The system has a range of

approximately 300 ft (91 m).

NOTE:

• The vehicle must be equipped with an automatic

transmission to be equipped with Remote Start.

• Obstructions between the vehicle and the RKE trans-

mitter may reduce this range.

How To Use Remote Start

All of the following conditions must be met before the

engine will remote start:

• Shift lever in PARK
• Doors closed
• Hood closed
• HAZARD switch off
• BRAKE switch inactive (brake pedal not pressed)
• Battery at an acceptable charge level
