To Enter Remote Start Mode

Push and release the REMOTE START button on

the RKE transmitter twice, within five seconds.

The parking lights will flash and the horn will

chirp twice (if programmed). In cold ambient

temperature conditions, the diesel vehicle may delay crank

up to 30 seconds for the fuel and grid heater. Once the

vehicle has started, the engine will run for 15 minutes or

75 seconds in extreme cold and high elevation.
NOTE:

• The park lamps will turn on and remain on during

Remote Start mode.

• For security, power window and power sunroof op-

eration (if equipped) are disabled when the vehicle is

in the Remote Start mode.

• The engine can be started two consecutive times (two

15-minute cycles) with the RKE transmitter. However,

the ignition switch must be cycled to the ON position

before you can repeat the start sequence for a third

cycle.

To Exit Remote Start Mode Without Driving The

Push and release the REMOTE START button one time or

allow the engine to run for the entire fifteen minute cycle.
NOTE:

To avoid unintentional shut downs, the system

will disable the one time push of the REMOTE START

button for two seconds after receiving a valid Remote
