Extending Engine Run Time

To extend the engine run time by
10 minutes, repeat Steps 1 though 3
while the engine is still running.
The engine run time can only be
extended if it is the first remote start
since the vehicle has been driven.
Remote start can be extended
one time.

If the remote start procedure is used
again before the first 10 minute
time frame has ended, the first
10 minutes will immediately expire
and the second 10 minute time
frame will start.

For example, if the lock button and
then the remote start buttons are
pressed again after the vehicle
has been running for five minutes,
10 minutes are added, allowing
the engine to run for a total of
15 minutes.

A maximum of two remote starts or
remote start attempts are allowed
between ignition cycles.

After the vehicle's engine has been
started two times using the remote
start button, the ignition must be
turned on and then back off before
the remote start procedure can be
used again.

then off.

Conditions in Which the
Remote Start Will Not Work

The vehicle cannot be started using
the remote start feature if the key is
in the ignition, the hood is open, or if
there is an emission control system
malfunction.

The engine turns off during a remote
start if the coolant temperature gets
too high or if the oil pressure
gets low.
