Pontiac 2006 Grand Prix - Manual (Page 83)

The remote vehicle start feature will not operate if any
of the following occur:
• The remote start system is disabled through
the DIC.
• The vehicle’s key is in the ignition.
• A door on the vehicle is open.
• The vehicle’s hood is open.
• The hazard warning flashers are on.
• There is an emission control system malfunction.
• The engine coolant temperature is too high.
• The oil pressure is low.
• Two remote vehicle starts have already been
provided for that ignition cycle.
If a remote start is attempted and is unsuccessful, the
Driver Information Center (DIC) will display REMOTE
START DISABLED.
Vehicles that have the remote vehicle start feature are
shipped from the factory with the remote start system
enabled. The system may be enabled/disabled through
the DIC. See “REMOTE START” under DIC Controls
and Displays (Base Level DIC) on page 3-52 or
DIC Controls and Displays (Uplevel DIC with Trip
Computer) on page 3-60 for additional information.
Remote Start Ready
If your vehicle does not have the remote vehicle start
feature, it may have the remote start ready feature. This
feature allows your dealer to add the manufacturer’s
remote vehicle start feature.
If the keyless entry transmitter has a plus (+) symbol on
the back cover, your vehicle has the remote start
ready feature. You can lock or unlock your vehicle from
approximately 492 feet (150 m) away.
See your dealer if you would like to add the
manufacturer’s remote vehicle start feature to
your vehicle.
